Today Is Friday, July 17, 2026: This Is What Happened

 


Wildfires is in the area. I know some is northwest of me, and south of me. Not sure of the other direction at this time. Yesterday our area had quite a bit of smoke.

This morning it rain and settle the smoke a bit. But the 2 main fire they didn't make any ground on. Plus it grew. People are displace. Haven't heard about any homes lost yet.


I might as well stick this here. I'm going to build off of IRIS last comment she left on my blog...Seems life is complicated everywhere. As my friend says, "easy, everyone can do"... I think the term easy or hard is in the eye of the beholder. When things go to smooth I start to wonder what will break down next. One could say I have weakness in my faith.


I been taking up some folding chairs out of the basement. One will be haul to the dump boxes, next time we go. The other will be washed off, nothing wrong with them. My guess we will keep them. If not they can be donated to the thrift store. Sure I wish the cleaning under the stairs was going a little quicker. But in whole I'm satisfied.

Went to the senior center for lunch, and got 2 bags of groceries. And 2 hummingbird feeder.


Going to Spokane for my granddaughter Alice birthday. She going to be 8. Murphy asthma is better better, but it still giving him issues. The 6th of August, he has an doctor appointment. I want to ask a doctor about a nebulizer. They sell them on line. But if I can't get a prescription for medicine to put in it. It will be pretty much a waste.

    You’re struggling with asthma, I’m dealing with my fibromyalgia, good thing I’m retired.
    Wishing you a nice Saturday and Sunday, Andreja!!!

  8. I feel for you. We are getting smoke from Canadian wildfires, which is awful, but nothing around here is burn8ng

  9. Iris makes a good point to worry when things go too smoothly.

  10. I can't imagine the doctor not prescribing meds for the nebulizer. To give the Canadians a break, we have our own wild fire on NE Minnesota, along the Canadian border. So we are both providing fuel for the smoke. I have never been a worrier but I seem to be making up for all those years I did not spend time worrying. You have a fantastic community center.

  11. Never fun to be inundated with smoke. And, of course, those that have to deal with the actual fires.

  12. I hope they can contain the fires soon.

  13. I hope the fires are out soon. I heard somewhere Trump is putting tariff on Canada because of the smoke coming across the border. How stupid is that?? Canada is not sending smoke on purpose! It can't be controlled.
    I hope you are able to get the nebuliser and the medicine.

  15. I do hope the fires can be contained ... and soon!

    That will be nice to see Alice for her 8th birthday.
    I hope Murphy's appointment next month goes well.

    All the best Jan

  16. Fire season gets worse every year as predicted. Hope the smoke subsides soon. Have fun in Spokane for Alice's birthday party.

  17. Keeping you in my thoughts with those fires in the area — stay safe! Score on the hummingbird feeders from the senior center, and good luck with the rest of the basement sorting. Hope Alice has a fantastic 8th birthday in Spokane and that Murphy's upcoming appointment goes well!"

  18. Losing your home and all its treasures would be tragic. Being displaced is still very disruptive :(
