Shot!

 

It is one of the most important things I do each year-- receive a flu shot.

Yesterday's edition came in the morning.  I made an on-line appointment at a big medical group a few weeks ago. I arrived on time, lifted my sleeve, got the jab, and it was done.  It didn't hurt, but I know my arm will be a little sore tomorrow.

A flu shot isn't a guarantee.  However, it does give you a decent chance of avoiding the flu this winter.  If you do get it, the symptoms will be less severe.  Please, don't believe all the junk out there that says you'll actually get the flu if you receive the shot.

Do it for yourself.  More importantly, do it for your family, friends, and coworkers.  A little peace of mind goes a long way.
