Dec 2019

I was traveling then sick and wanted to wait till i am better. My cold is finally almost gone and i was thinking of getting it on Monday.

I am getting a biopsy mole thing done on Wednesday though, if my immune system is working for that will flu shot be too much?

Normally I get in Sept. Been a weird year.
