Yanno, if I had to walk or take the bus everywhere I'd have a much different view of rain or snow.

OTOH, I'd probably hate the heat even more than I do now.

Just OOC BRENDA, since having been on chemo I've become seriously anemic. Over time I've had six units of blood and it hasn't fully corrected the anemia yet. But one consequence is feeling cold all the time. Might you possibly be anemic? Low thyroid levels can do the same. Im sure yours is checked regularly, but might it be on the low side of normal? Just hoping there's a simple fix to tolerate the weather better.

SIX: I'm sure by now you know 1000x more than I do about emission controls. I wish I could help, but all I can do is wish you the best of luck

Radiation therapy seems to be taking the starch out of me. Fatigue is a common side effect, and I find myself nodding off at 10PM or earlier. Past time for me to toddle off to bed.

But I do like the way my new organizational system is working. It's eliminated the nagging feeling that I'm forgetting something!

I've been checked for anemia and there is no problem with my red blood cells. It is just a slow thyroid.

And that is stable, to use an old joke of my mother's it's just old age creeping up on me at times.

Got caught in a rain storm on my way back from the grocery store. Sun and some blue sky was out so I imagine somewhere had a thunderstorm.

Good luck with the tiles. I hope your weather stays dry too!

Alas, there is no simple fix for old age yet. But if you find one, let me know. Then go collect that Nobel Prize!
