Half Down, Half To Go...

 

It's the halfway point of the hell called August.  June was dark & wet.   July finally got brighter, the last half got hot.  August has been sweltering with mostly hazy skies.  The clouds linger til midday.  By evening they're back, holding in the humidity.  I'm really hating clouds this Summer.  They're just making things worse & bringing no rain.  There's been none of the 2.5" that's this area's average for the month of August.

I'm done for now, but I'm sure the heat gripes will continue for a while.  Take care.

Seriously, For Real...

 

I'm not sure how, but somehow this piece wound up not having a tragic ending.  The article's title got my attention, "HIV-Positive Woman Donated Breast Milk Over Social Media," on Medpagetoday.com.   

An HIV+ women in California donated her breast to parents in a social media group.  This piece is about how difficult it was for health officials to locate & test the milk & infants.  Fortunately, none of the babies tested +.

Why would anyone take untested bodily fluids from a stranger on the internet?  I don't understand.  Even worse, why would they give this fluids to their child?  This should be common knowledge, you don't take bodily fluids from other people without them being tested.  This isn't just about HIV, there are many health risks to consider.

Give this a read.  Take care.

Hot Nights...

 

The last several nights have been hot & muggy.  The forecast doesn't show any signs of that lightening up any time soon.  These nights are really bad for sleeping.  I'll be glad when things cool down a bit.  I could use a good night's rest.

We have shopping & some errands, then try to get home before it gets too hot.  The house is hard to cool down any after that happens.

Take care.

Recovery Day...

 

OK, even though everything with my roomie's appointment has seemingly gone well, it was still a rough day.  It started way too early, after barely any sleep, the hot day started.  From there, it just hotter,  longer & more tiring.  

We got back earlier than expected, but it was overwhelming.  The temps hit 100+ early & didn't drop til sundown, then the humidity climbed.  August, looks to seriously hot & dry.  We've still had no rain & there isn't any in the forecast.

That's it for now.  I'm still worn out.   Take care.

Too Early Again...

 

We're heading out & the sun isn't even up yet.  I hate driving into the sunrise.  Anyway, this it for today.  Early appointments wreck schedules.  

Take care.

Rushed Morning...

 

The rest of this week is going to be off.  We need to handle Wednesday stuff today due to an early appointment tomorrow.  My roomie has to be to her doctor's early.  It's going to be a long day & off week.  

Broken record plays on; it's hot, it's humid, didn't sleep well, feel rough, etc...  That's all for now, take care.

Hot Night, Bad Sleep...

 

It was still 80° when I went to bed last night.  It was already 88° when I got up.  The fans only managed to lessen the wet air, not dry it.  It was a muggy, uncomfortable sleep.

That looks to be what's up for the rest of the month.  So far there's been no rain & there isn't any in the forecast.  This isn't going to be fun.

The next few days are packed with appointments.  By Thursday, I'm going to be doing well just to out of bed.  Everything collided & now it's just getting through it.

That's all for now, take care.
