Hello friends --WHAT??? It's May already. Are you serious??  How in the actual hell did that happen??  Time is flying at a blazing speed.  My daughter Maggie Mae will be home from her second year in college on Saturday!!  And I'm ordering high school graduation announcements for my other daughter Reagan. How do I press pause - anybody know??Ok - let's get after it, shall we??1. First - let me invite you to a Facebook Live I'm doing at 11 am EST TODAY!!!  It's with the owners of Thermapparel, a wonderful small business that makes the UnderCool Cooling Vest that is simply THE BEST COOLING VEST on the market. I know this because I swear - I think I've tried them all.  Those big bulky vests that only cool for tops - 2 hours - and you feel like an umpire in the MLB when you have them on!  The Undercool Vest is very fitted. You can't even tell I'm wearing it under a teeshirt! AND - most importantly - it keeps me cool for up to 3 hours.  Seriously.  I don't overheat and kick off a flare due to heat since I found this vest. Which is why I approached them for a collaboration. I wanted to bring this wonder vest to the FUMS community. So - that's what we're doing. If you can't catch it LIVE - check it out on the FUMS Facebook page later.  And then - get one for yourself!!  You won't regret it.  Here's the link for the Facebook Live: Thermapparel and FUMS2.   Here's how to tamp down inflammation and reduce your chronic disease risk in as little as one day.
