My Internet has been going down an awful lot lately and I am becoming tired of it. Today it is down again.
Since my Internet was Down again I decided to go and have my haircut again but I went to a different hairdresser luckily she had an opening for me. I wasn't able to get a hold of the lady who normally does my hair.
I also stopped at the pharmacy and had my Shingles shot as I don't want to have to deal with shingles.
A while back I had a test done by my doctor because I thought I might never have had chicken pox but the test came back that I had the chicken pox at some time, I must have been a baby or it was a very mild case for me.
The wind is blowing and that makes it a nice day outside and not hot at all in fact is only 65 degrees outside and rather chilly.

We have been inoculated against shingles too. It is a very nasty condition.

Hi There!
So you got the shot and won't get the shingles, which is good. I've heard they are really horrible and painful to endure! I could never remember whether you were more susceptible because you'd never had the pox or because you HAD. I guess now I know.
In fact, someone I used to know had a sister who got the shingles at a young age, and had two occurrences of cancer with it.

It is said if you have had the chicken pox then you could get Shingles which I don't want as I have enough medical issues. Oh my she had the shingles at a young age now that is terrible.

@Marcyaz Yes. I think she was around 8 at her first occurrence and 11 years old at her second. She was the sister of my ex's best friend.

I didn't know a child at that age could get shingles and to have it twice is not so good for her.

It won't be 65 degrees here for long though. It is frustrating to have the intetnet go down when you are trying to accomplish something.

Sorry to hear your internet keeps going out. I know how frustrating that can be.
Glad you got the shot to not get shingles. I heard that it's really painful.
65 degrees? Lucky! FL weather is unbearable for summer ugh!

It is really no fun when you are trying to do something on the internet. I know a person who had the shingles and she was in a lot of pain from that. From 90 degrees to 65 degrees is a big difference. I hear next week will be a hotie though.

I have had the shingles twice and it was not fun at all and mine was a mild case. I had it on my scalp and it moved to my forehead and extremely close to my eye. My eye actually swelled up and I couldn't see out of it. Getting a vaccine is a good idea.

I am telling everyone to get that shingles vaccine--it is a horrible disease to get.
