Hope it clears up soon for you and in the mean time you find something to sooth the symptoms.

Thanks.

I feel for you, Bones.
Watched my Dad through shingles.

Shingles SUCKS.

Once it clears up, can you get the vaccine after whatever time, so it doesn't come back?

Hops

I tried to arrange for the vaccine two weeks after I broke out and the pharmacist told me I had to wait a few more weeks as it was too soon to get the shot.  I'm planning on trying again next week.

How are you doing, Bonesie?  I always think of you when (a) I see a cute cat and (b) when I hear someone say something sassy :)  Lol, hope you're doing okay xx xx

Thanks, Tupp.

I've been dealing with Round Two of Shingles.  I finally found a place that will give me my Shingles shot but I have to wait until this Round is no longer active before I can get my vaccination.

Otherwise, I'm taking things one day at a time.

I've been having fun watching cute cat videos on Facebook.  Some of my former classmates also love cats and what they've been sharing on Facebook is ADORABLE!!!

Oh no, Bones, shingles must be awful and to have it twice as well?!  You poor thing.  I didn't know they could do a vaccination for it so I'm glad you've found that's possible.  Do you have any idea how long it will be before you'll be able to get it done?  It sounds like rotten luck to get it twice!

I love cute cat videos!  They do such daft things sometimes as well, it's lucky they have nine lives with all the falling off things and so on that they do.  There was a show on last night that had some cute cat videos and in one of them the cat was trying to reverse himself through a small gap in a window the same way you'd reverse a car, it was hilarious :)

I hope you start to feel a bit better soon xx xx

Thanks, Tupp.

The vaccination becomes available for folks around the age of 60 and my local grocery store can give it to me the next time I go shopping.  I hate needles but I hate Shingles even more so I'm going to grab the opportunity and get it done.

One of the videos I saw in my Facebook group shows a cat giving itself a facial with one of those electric massagers!  It's hilarious!!!!    I couldn't stop laughing!

Oh Bones, the cute kitty video sounds hilarious!  They're just so funny.  There's a young one near us who's so friendly and loves being petted so much that he just kind of zones out when you stroke him and starts toppling over.  If I sit out on the step to drink my tea he rushes over (he loiters by the tree outside my house because I put bird feeders in it but he's the clumsiest cat I've ever seen, every time he tries to grab a bird he trips or overshoots it and skids off the wall instead).  I start stroking him round his head and ears and he purrs so loud and then starts kind of doing headstands and lifting his back legs off the step and then he overbalances and falls down lol.  He really is so cute.  We had to try and stop one from next door coming in as she kept fighting with our cat so now they each sit on the shed roof of their respective gardens and miaow at each other from a distance.  So daft :)

Were you able to get your shot?  It's so horrible when you're laid up with something and all you can do is wait for it to go.  I hope it's cleared up enough for you to get your jab (I hate needles as well, I have to look at the door the whole time and talk incessantly otherwise I pass out lol) and that it doesn't come back again now xx

Cats are so funny and I LOVE to listen to them purr!!!!

Turns out that the Shingles shot is a two parter.  I got Part One on Wednesday and I have to go back for Part Two in a couple of months.  In the meantime, I also have to arrange for the Flu shot because asthma and flu are NOT a good combination.  I HATE needles but I hate the flu and the Shingles more than I hate needles!

The cat that runs over to you when you sit on your porch made think of a childhood memory.  Where I was growing up, there used to be a Siamese cat next door to me named Sam.  Every time I sat on my porch, he would run over to me to be petted and purr like a motor!  His owner didn't like that but no one can herd cats.  Sam and I sort of adopted each other even though egg donor wouldn't allow me to have any pets.  I miss that cat.

I'm really glad you're starting to feel better, Bones.
And getting your vaccines.

Bravo. Smart.

Hope next year is much healthier and happier for you.

Aw, Bones, Sam the Cat sounds so cute!  Cats do just pick people out and then do what they like, there's no choice when a cat's involved!  Lol.  We visited a garden centre last year that has a live in cat - he just turned up one day and started following the owner around.  They put posters up and went to Cat Rescue and did all the things you would do to find the owner but no-one came forward so he lives there now, spending most of his day sat next to the till as an endless queue of people stroke him :)  Not daft!  Sam the Cat sounds so cute, I'm glad he picked you out to be his friend :)

I hope getting the shots done goes okay.  It's a pain to have to do it in two stages, and then I guess the flu one is an extra one on top?  But yes, asthma and flu are not a good combo, particularly after having shingles.  Your poor body needs some time to recover without the risk of getting ill again so I hope all of that goes well.

Have you seen the film A Street Cat Named Bob?  If not, you might like it - it's a true story about a homeless guy who is adopted by this lovely cat, who kind of helps him turn his life around.  It's a lovely film if you haven't already seen it xx

The Flu shot is an extra vaccination in addition to the Shingles vaccine.  I hate being a human pin cushion and, at the same time, I can't afford to get those illnesses without complications setting in.

I've had more than one cat "adopt" me even though they never lived with me.  They are so FUNNY!  My next door neighbor also has cats and, one day, I was asked to look at his computer as he was having some problems with it.  When I came into his home, his cats scattered and hid, (as cats tend to do sometimes).  As I was sitting at the computer, running some diagnostics to pinpoint the problem, I saw a pair of cat ears out of the corner of my eye.  I pretended to ignore the cat as I focused on the computer.  Next thing I knew, one of the cats was in my lap begging to be petted!  LOL!!!

Makes perfect sense to take precautions, Bones, and avoid getting poorly, I think a couple of minutes being stuck with a needle is easier than weeks of feeling rotten - that said, I hope they don't jab you too hard!

Aw it's lovely when they seek someone out like that, I love the way cats just decide what's happening and expect humans to fall into line :)  The cat next door to us was a rescue and had apparently been kept in a rabbit hutch for the early years of its life, why on earth anyone would do that is beyond me.  As a result he doesn't much like people and tends to sit up on a high wall keeping out of the way, but there's one little kid on our street who, for some reason, he likes and lets stroke him.  It's just funny how they decide someone's a good egg :) xx

I think cats are a good judge of people and they know who are good eggs and who are rotten.  One cat used to give me a unique vocal greeting that she gave to no one else and then we would rub our foreheads together.  It was as if I was another cat to her and I loved it!  I miss her too.

I still have more vaccinations to get caught up on such as the pneumonia vaccine and the TDaP.
