[staying healthy]

And it's ironic that I am writing this post just now..because I am having a minor health issue(not anything big, but I had to  go to the  doctor today;I am so grateful to the doctors at Scripps-they are  frickin' rock stars-I was not able to get in to see my usual doctor,but there are other doctors that are associates of his that I can see, and they're always super cool. I've seen several different  doctors for various issues(once I saw a doctor for a sore throat which was so bad I felt like I needed to have it checked out..just to be sure. Turned out that it was bacterial, so I couldn't take anything for it which sucked because it was *painful* and nothing would work on it.

That's part of it; I really have been trying to make an effort to go to the gym more; I worked out for the first time in quite a while the other day and I realised *just* how much I need to get there. Like,I have a doctor's appointment next week kind of close to where my gym is;I'm thinking that maybe I'll get a workout in before I go to my appointment.And then, of course, I'm  planning on  working out on Thanksgiving(I wonder if they'll be busy-is everyone else going to have the same idea-work out before a huge meal? Most of the time my gym isn't  even close to crowded-we'll see if Thanksgiving is different!)

I've been lucky as far as my diabetes goes;I've always heard that people with diabetes have lowered immunes systems. I dunno; I've been lucky *knocks wood* apart from this current health issue and a few other things, I've been lucky that way. But I  do everything I should, like get flu shots.
