I hate sinus infections. I really like breathing.
I have a feeling docs all over town are swamped, half a million people in Spokane area and all of them with respiratory distress. On the other hand, there are going to be those who have a lot more need of a doctor’s time than I do. This stuff seems to run a course, and I’ve kind of hit the trough, after which it improves.
I think Jane had it first, and I’m running about two days behind her. WHich gives me hope that I’ll be past the nasty part of this for my birthday. I’d really like to do the lake cruise, but I’d also like friends to go with us, and I’d rather not pass this on to the whole boatful of people. Jane’s able to go to the store this morning—I bought two packages of salad on Friday which turned out spoiled on Saturday—I have a feeling the delivery truck got overheated and cooked everything. So it’s salads, eh?
It’s so nice to look out on a rainy pond.
looks like you’re getting a bit more rain right now.. 8:20am PDT. Good!
As a salad, I would prefer not to be cooked ;D
As hoped, Ignacio is veering further to the north; it looks like we will only get the fringes of the storm. Jimena is an early bloomer, a Cat 4-5 hurricane already but thankfully predicted to weaken and also break north before getting too near Hawaii. This year has been a busy hurricane season, but *touch wood* so far, nothing has made it close enough to do damage, and we ain’t done yet. If the surfers are happy with the big swells, that’s a plus.
German potato salad is served warm. Boiled potatos, crisp bacon chunks, and fresh parsley, tossed with oil and vinegar. Yum!
I mowed the lawn last weekend, and all the rain just made it sprout even more enthusiastically; it looks like I never bothered. Time to get out the ‘goat’ again.
we’re getting a bit of rain here, too……not a lot, but some…
According to the NWS Station at Spokane, the 48-hour precipitation amount for Spokane International Airport is 0.14″. Some help, but not enough…..
My state Amateur Radio Emergency Service Section Manager just sent out a call for amateur radio operators to assist in the Idaho region. I politely declined….it’s a 2-week assignment and I have no one to watch the cats on this short notice, and I really do not want to go there…..especially if I have to drive out there, and the way he was describing it, yes, I would, and no, I would not be paid for it. We’re not allowed to accept payment for our services, but compensation is always legal, especially if I would be supporting the government agencies in the area. But, no, I’m not available for that.

Happy Birthday!

Weather report for Saturday calls for rain…not a lot of rain, but some, between 0.1″ – 0.25″. Maybe enough to clear the air for a while.
