Breathing Getting Better

This is a hair late of a post. Tried to make it home in time but didn’t make it.

Was worth it though, wife won big at the Casino and we would not have gotten that if I cut it short and went home early.

So the weigh in recorded at 12:00:15 was 313.4

Officially

Weight: 316.8

Gonna be on Steroids a bit longer

Went to the doctor today, and looks like am going on prednisone a bit longer.

Instead of cutting off tomorrow, we want to ramp down because the smoke in the air is going to persist for a few more days.

We had a bar b que today, and it was hot but nice outside, but smoke from both the grill and the Spokane fires were.

I little disappointed but I did enjoy it a bit. What is more of a problem was I went for my mile walk and forgot my mask.

It does not feel as bad and the steroids are helping.

One bad side effect is that it is HOT in my office cause I was told to seal off my home from the outside.

Gonna cook.

Prednisone Kicking In

Got 2 more days of power walking and no pain due to Prednisone.

The doctor said I should be ok and will not have any weird recurrence when I stop.

I forgot what it was like to walk down stairs and power up them without any knee pain.

Still smokey, but I still having breathing trouble. But I am getting better.

Slowly Getting Better

Still bad, but feeling better. The smoke is still bad, going to check out the news in a bit to see how bad it became.

I think I am headed for a crash because the meds are keeping me up and wired.

Weekend cant arrive soon enough.

More Smoke Bad Air

Been a rough day, time just flew by I got less than 15 minutes to post.

The smoke actually hit me hard today, the sky was ominous.

I got all the Air Purifiers blasting, was even considering a few DIY options to augment the air cleanliness.

My breathing is getting a bit better though. But I need to go outside wearing a mask and no running for now.

What I am short of is time.

Making Room In Office

Been cleaning up my office and getting some new ways to organize it. On thing I added to my office was something from Ikea called Skagis, basically a pegboard.

Kind of cool.

Haven’t done my walk yet, been pretty busy.

No Parkrun Today

Clearly need to recover, if I run outside I risk life threatening breathing issues.

I think I am getting better, got some stuff going for me again.

Also got a lot of things done around the house, starting to remove stuff from my rack, also going to organize the office a bit tomorrow.

So close

I probably could of held out and made it past 310lbs officially. But I decided that maybe I should get something to eat.

Go fever, where you are so close you push past the red flags.

I am tired too, got a lot done.

Calling it good for the day.
