Vaccinaed but still won't

ProudMa · ‎03-11-2010

Got both shots,have reinstated family dinners, all are vaccinated. BUT

I still dont feel comfortable going to the movies, or out to dinner YET.

Do grocery shopping, but wont go into retail stors yet, there isnt anything I need bad enuf vs potential risk..

How about you??

I heard this referred to "fear of returning to normal."

I'm with you. Eating out is the most riskiest place right now. They say that even if vaccinated, stay away.

whenever we get our vaccinations I'll still err on the side of "over-cautious"

what can it hurt

I feel the same

That's fabulous that you're having family dinners again. Huge improvement, right?

Everything else? Baby steps. DH said it felt weird eating in a restaurant again, but he was glad he did it. I'd say choose something fun you've been really missing and figure out a way to do it in a way that still feels comfortable to you.

I didn't do those things before Covid, and I won't be doing them now that I'm vaccinated.

What I did before I will continue to do. Hopefully, at some future point I can do them without masks. And go back to having spontaneous visits with friends.

When that will be, I don't know.

I will wait two weeks before going into stores and I will wait four weeks before going to restaurants. At that point I will move forward, can't stay in this mode forever.

Why can't you have spontaneous visits with friends?

Some have been exposed to the virus and I don't know about it unless I talk to them before I see them. I'd like to be able to not have to check with everyone before I drop in, or vice versa--them with me.
