Fortunately I don't have the flu but I did pop over to Rylstone Hospital to get my annual flu jab. Despite it being a grey day my eye was taken by the light and the mountains - such a lovely part of the world.
Everyday delights in Penrith, Kandos in mid-western NSW and beyond
It is lovely indeed.
ReplyDeleteLuckily I didn´t need a flu jab. Last time I was knocked out a bit for over a week from it!
I've only had a flu injection twice (since I reached the magic age of 65 when they say we should do it). I am glad to say I did not get an adverse reaction on either occasion.
DeleteI can see why you were distracted by the view Joan Elizabeth, it's pretty fab! I had a flu jab for the first time this year.. hope it works 😉
ReplyDeleteP.s. That was the last time having my lawn cut for the next two months thank goodness :)
No lawn mowing is one of the greatest joys of winter! I hope the jab works for both of us.
DeleteThat is a good view!
ReplyDeleteThat ring of individual mountain peaks around us makes for interesting views.
DeleteI never used to get the flu jab but after having the flu two years ago I decided that it was orobably a good idea now that I have turned old and grey. LOL!
ReplyDeleteGetting the flu is soooo bad I will do anything to avoid it these days.
DeleteBeautiful light!
ReplyDeleteI worked at two different high schools in my 50s and seemed to pick up every illness that circulated in the building. I started getting flu shots then. They're no guarantee but I assume they keep it from being too onerous.
As I understand it will help us develop antibodies for the expected flu strains but can't protect us from any that emerge later in the season. Here's hoping nothing new emerges. I can generally shake of illness quite quickly but it takes my husband months to recover.
DeleteWe get the 'flu vaccine every year, but last year both my husband and I got the 'flu. Hope the vaccine this year is better!
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping.
