Tempted

The thought is tempting not to post today.
This week has been horrible!
Two minor heart attacks, one additional induced to see what is up with the rotten ticker.
A dialysis session straight from hell - everything went wrong, up to and including a power failure!

I want to walk so badly!
But between the Siberian fires and the Canadian ones - we are chocking in smoke here!
For three weeks now, we are listed as "hazardous" air quality, even for healthy people!
Luckily, I have most of what I need.
And Gaelic Girl is forced to not be outside due to her 80 hour work schedule!

Everyday is in the 80's - far too hot for me!
Swiss Boy far prefers the temperature on glaciers!
So, lots of fans running.
But unlike years past - to push air around, not draw from outside.

The air smells not like wood smoke, but burnt meat!
Very weird.
My friends on the east side of Cascade Mountains, all report the same strange odor.
The cloud in the morning hangs about 20 feet off the ground through most of the day.
Generally, breaking up or rising around noon.
Poor pilots are only getting a half mile of visibility!

Sure glad I am not flying.
Wish I could go somewhere smoke free!
Well, I will retire now and try to think of something interesting for Friday's post ....
