    Oh I should do the bone density test but I won’t.

    We got 3 shots in one visit, covid, flu and RSV. No interesting side effects.

    That's good to hear! I am bypassing all shots this year due to my extremely inflammatory reactions to things. My doctor was glad I drove and didn't fly on my trip--she seems to think flying is a big covid risk.

    Everyone I know who flies comes home with Covid. How can it NOT be a big risk with all those people milling around in the airport, then you get close to people when you’re going through the security lines, and then you get close to people when you’re standing in line for the plane and then there’s the plane itself.

    I never really bought that that airplanes circulated their air so much that they were safe during Covid. I think that’s a lot of bs.

    I decided to not deal with the shots this year either. No flu, no Covid. I ended up with bronchitis last week. Still recovering. It just happened from sheer inertia. Just kept pushing off making an appt at Walgreens.

    I wanted shots at the doctor's office - no dice, they push you off to a pharmacy. I wanted three shots at once, pharmacist refused - two at a time, max. ARG. But I WiLL get them done this fall. I want us to visit my DH's aunt, who will turn 99 in December, and we will NOT go unprotected, lol. Ok, shingles doesn't affect traveling to visit her, but the others do, I certainly don't want to be in any way shape or form responsible for bringing her any sort of sickness. She's out and about a lot, so she's already exposed, (but it won't be from US, can you tell I'm sort of paranoid about it, lol?)

    I have a GP appointment coming up soon. This is a good reminder to see if I can schedule the shots.

    Finally got off my duff and listed some items for sale on Marketplace. Need/want to list more. Time to start clearing some of these stuff out.

    Tradd, even with all the shots nothing stops bronchitis. I get it at least once or twice every year. This year July is basically missing due to being sick with the fever and coughing.

    Those blank canvases are wonderful and scary. Since we bought this house, we’ve been removing plants from the front, and because DH is such a hoarder he will dig up a lilac bush and relocate them. And that’s fine with me, but really only one of them was worth preserving in my opinion.

    But when presented with us vast clean space, I have to come up with a logical Landscaping plan. That’s why I went to the professionals. That did not go well. So I’m back to designing the biggest part of it myself after spending a good $4,000 On their choices and some of those have died. Supposedly we are owed replacements, but here it is November and they haven’t come by with them so I will have to rattle that cage.
