Vitamin D

A lot of the regulars showed up at this morning's aerobics class. The instructor did a surprise Christmas number at the end of class for us, so we felt special. One of my friends was telling me that she and her husband are off on a 5-week trip to Hong Kong, Thailand and Vietnam in early January. They are retired and she is very adventurous. She did say they are going to 'wing it' for most of the trip.

It's so slushy and mild outside.

It seems we have to start taking vitamin D tablets now according to the latest news. We already take omega-3 tablets.
