Got my free shingles vaccine today. It's the first of two shots. Still need to get Tetanus shot, Whooping cough and measles. Arm may be just a little sore after all this, but I would rather be safe. I have had whooping cough as an adult, and really would rather not get it again. I don't remember ever having measles as a child, but I do remember getting the chicken pox. For some reason I blamed the storm that the Wahine went down. In my child's mind, they were linked, as I remember that storm very clearly. Funny how as children, we can link events with something that happened to us. My two sisters and I got the chicken pox at the same time, I remember the three of us having to stay in the bedroom, and it was sunny; so we really wanted to be outside playing.
You can tell winter has finally arrived - for this week anyway - it is a cold, dreary day here. I declare it an inside day. Even the washing won't get dry if I hang it up outside, so will be putting it through the dryer. Thank goodness we have the dryer, I think I would be truly lost without it, especially on days like today. At least I have a good excuse to carry on with my knitting, and reading. Not that I need much of an excuse for doing either of those things.
