The Coffee House

Starting to be good days to stay indoors in East Texas. The sun is shining and the heat is on. The AC is running more and more.

The computer got over whatever was pissing it off. Will do half of my penny rolls for the day and then do my comics on the computer.

Just got back from a lovely day at mums, warm but the humidity is up in to the 90s far to hot for me as it plays merry hell with my asthma and copd so the fans are now on in the flat.

We had visitors from afar. Yum.

Got darkish. Rained. Sun is back with a vengeance.

Feel for you no COPD but the Asthma plays the devil with my outside activities this time of the year. Spent all day inside yesterday, today and tomorrow are supposed to be better here.

Another perfect day ...71F and Gary can’t feel any humidity. Yesterday, Mary Lou and Gary spent the afternoon working in the yard. Mary Lou dug up a ton of mint and marjoram. Gary cut down a ton of grapes, Cabernet and Zin and cleaned out the pond skimmer. Yesterday we also caught Real Madrid and Liverpool in the championship game. What an exciting game, non-stop action. Congrats to Madrid. Presently, we are all in the patio, reading the paper and listening to KUSC and jumping up for the occasional garden touch-up and pruning.

Spending time outside ain't on the agenda.
Meatloaf, Mashed potatoes and gravy and broccoli will be dinner in about 2 hours.

The joys of working with asbestos and smoking gave me the copd, but I always suffered from asthma since a little boy, like you I have to stay indoors every so often. On a better and happier note, the best thing that really did help change my life around after stopping smoking was getting Susie. As when we go for our slow walks it can help with my chest, so my doctor is happy as am I.

Surprisingly despite all the crud I've subjected my lungs to over the years, no COPD and the Asthma was Adult onset (age 60).

I would think that's ideal. When you've had too many, you just roll home. Heck on your clothes, but you wouldn't care anyway. Lol.

The first rain bands from Alberto have started moving through our area.

Mary Lou, Maggie and Gary are watching 1968 a CNN special. For me, it is riveting having lived through and experienced firsthand and even participated in many of the stories and themes. These were times of action. The action often was for good and other times for bad ... but always there was action.

It's been disgustingly hot since Friday. 90's with humidity to match. Tomorrow is supposed to hit 100. What state am I in again? We're not even into June.

My grill is getting a workout. Eating like a king and all leftovers are designed to be used in other dishes without ever heating up the house. Win/win.
