JC I know you're a tough dude but pneumonia is no joke. Antibiotics is one part of the treatment, bed rest is the other. My pulmonologist was very specific about what I could do ----- pretty much nothing for a couple weeks.
 
Gary just checked ... 115F in the shade (literally). Humidity 10%, Feels like 115F, Chance of Rain - 0.

That's crazy, not the temp, ........... The 10% humidity. Don't think I've ever experienced that here.

I know but unfortunately, it's been virtually impossible for me to rest. I have only been able to sneak in a few days of rest, if you could call it that. Work issues, planned events, etc. Probably the reason it's been hanging on. At the end of the day, other people just don't care, it's all about them. Most people are just insensitive. My wife should have canceled today's event but nope, it's more important than my health. We are going to Tennessee at the end of next week and I have zero f'ing energy. Work people are the same way. I just suck it up.

Yeah I did that the first time. When if finally hit me is on the way to ER when I started passing out, blood pressure spiking, and I spent 3 days in the hospital on an IV and oxygen. I followed doctors advice after that. This last time it wasn't as bad, maybe the pneumonia shot I got 2 years ago helped,but still I tried to take it easy for a couple of weeks.
 
Thank God mum phoned last night, as it was this morning we said goodbye to our boy. My head had been so far up my backside I thought it was tomorrow, he had a great send off and will be solely missed but never forgotten. Now we have to carry on with our lives and get on with it all.

I know it must be hard, but try and take it easy when you can mate.
 
Thanks smoke, today was very hard if I have to say. A parent should never have to say goodbye to their children first, but now it is all over we have to just try and get on as sadly we have too get on with our lives but not forget our loved ones either.
 
1-0 oh yes, come on England.
 
We should be 2-0 up but player messed up :(

Los Angeles sits with the Pacific on one side and 50 miles away are 10,000' high San Gabriel mountains. The mountains trap the cool water from the Pacific. Gary imagines the communities beyond the basin the humidity would be in single digit. The low humidity is to wild fires like pouring gasoline on the dry fuel source. It should be in the mid 90"s today. During summer, the beach, on any given day is about ten degrees cooler than where Gary lives, (about halfway between the ocean and the mountains), nearer the mountains you can add another ten degrees+.
