Yep, Friday again, the 27th of day-cheated February --
Lots of talk about shingles, lots of conflicting info. So Google Shingles and go to HealthLine -- read all about it. One thing for sure is that 50% of Americans have shingles by the time they're 80. You've read how horrible it is -- now, all the recommendations are for the vaccine after sixty since most attacks happen after that age. And so, of course, that allows insurance companies to not pay for it. However, you can trot to your pharmacy and ask them if they could give you the vaccine and what it would cost (between $200-$300) So check it out and make an informed decision --
More editing today and of course the gym -- If you're a gym bunny like I am, (well, three days a week) then you probably go at a certain time and you always see the same people (usually) and everyone becomes friends, and it's nice -- for lots of older guys it's their social hour (or three) So, my point? There's a lot of benefits to gym membership and meeting new people is one of them -- core today and cardio -- go forth and make it happen -
