“My last pneumonia vaccine was 10 years ago. “

If you are over 65 you need a booster. s/b 5 years.

Get on a waiting list for Shingles vaccine if you are over 60.

Waiting lists are now ~ 45-60 days.

Thanks, Bobibutu. Have an appointment for both the pnuemonia and shingles vaccine next week. And yes, I am over 65......but, I rather relish being old enough to be called “eccentric”. Years ago I was called extremist, loony, conspiritorial, and (oh, the horror) ultra right-wing. So now, I am quite happy with being just “eccentric”. So be it..

Another good thing about ageing. I use a cane. I don’t really need it. (Well, maybe at times I do) But I find that when I use it, others give me space and are rather differential and seemingly more respectful. So, if the little bas*ards in the Mall give me any sh*t, I’ll just bash them with my cane. I’m kind of enjoying the freedom of expression that advanced years enable one to have.
