Vaccinations will be available for everyone 50 and older starting April 1st here in CA. And April 15th it's opening up to everyone 16 and older.

 

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. :) Well, maybe not the very end of the tunnel, but a place where some light is flooding into the tunnel.

 

Already looking at belated birthday/minimoon weekend getaways in June. Either Santa Barbara or back up to Berkeley to visit people I haven't seen in over a year.

I have a better place -- Rainbow Donuts. I used to live a few blocks away and I still think about their doughnuts on the regular. How cute are these?

This is my favorite though:

No doughnuts for me though at the moment, I am focused on my "gallon of water a day for 30 days" challenge.
