I woke in wee hours to do the necessary and couldn't even stand up...the room was revolving at a cant that kept going this way and that. I gingerly held on to furniture, and shuffled slowly into bathroom and back. When I again woke at dawn, I didn't even want to turn my head...but eventually was brave enough to move and found the dread dizzies had left. A good friend has had trouble with vertigo and has been taking Meclazine. I knew I had some of it, but would have to turn on light and look for it at 4 am, so I just went back to bed. So far this morning the world has stayed right side up. Sorry, this was supposed to be wordless!

Summer winding down

The pool officially closes on Labor Day. But since most kids start school this week, it has limited hours.
 

What a difference from the crowds in June and July!  This last week has also been quite cool, with mid-70s F in the day and into the 50s at night. I keep the living room windows open, but the bedroom window is just cracked a bit so I don't have to get the winter blanket out yet. I'm already under a sheet , a blanket and a bedspread (a light-weight quilt).

This is the nebulizer, which lets me breath saline solution, and I pretend I'm on a beach breathing the salty air there. It helps my cough be productive.  Then I also inhale Albuterol, which helps my lungs somehow.  And if I'm a very good girl, I'll sit and vibrate with the vest for 15 min. All in all, I have to set aside about 20 min. for each procedure, with the set-up and then washing the nebulizing equipment.

From last week's DNC...a bit on climate change, thank you very much, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland!
