I Like to put it up each year so we can follow it and see how bad its getting so we know when to avoid the crowds. I get so paranoid this time of year with the anti rejection drugs. I think its time I stop working at the food pantry also which makes me sad but so many were coughing the last time and I am playing with fire this time of year.....

Colleen - I know the food pantry is important, but your health is more important!! You won't be good for anything if you get the flu (and then who knows what!). I agree that it's time to cut back...

I talked to the director yesterday and told her. She understands. I will help out if they need people in the back, that way I won't be exposed to the public. I will also still help with the orders when they come in that way I can still be helping but just be behind the scenes so to speak......

I finally got my shot, its has gone to widespread in our area, they are now saying a bad year for the flu. A few friends have gotten it already and they went to the ER and it was confirmed the flu. Need to hibernate here soon! I have a few books saved up and a ton of yarn so with that and packing I should have enough to do all winter.

I got my shot a while back. Dr. at Penn said to get later in the season to last the season. It usually takes 2 weeks to take effect.
I am glad you are taking measures Colleen. I knew they would understand and you do so much there. If you have to steer clear from there altogether they will understand that too. Sometimes it has to be just about you.
Wonder what type of flu it is. Each year it varies.

That's what they told me also, don't get it too early but I waited a bit too long this year, just glad i got it done. I like to get it around the end of October.
