Hello everyone, this is Refried. I was going to go to a comedy thing tonight but the air quality was bad and my asthma has been bad lately. I have gotten trapped outside gagging before and I decided to stay home.

I did feel ok and like I had the stamina for the trip downtown but I did not feel that it was safe.

So I have to miss out. I hope people understand. Many disabled people have to not participate in stuff and might feel like they let people down. I just have to accept some limitations. This means that I will probably go to Bruce’s show on Aug 2.

Something happy is that I joined toastmasters. I am thankful and excited. This makes me kind of busy. I think that caps it off for me in terms of activities.

Tonight the staff gave us food. A hamburger and chicken. Wow that was just what I needed. I think now I will make some coffee.

Will I wash more stuff later. Really I would like to do two loads. To have a stack of clean clothes and two clean towels. I sprayed the floor and surfaces and stuff I didn’t get to before as much. Then I put a shirt over my chair and sat on that. I think it is okay now.

Remember that I dropped the nail on the floor in the corner and then found it again and picked it up with a Kleenex. Now are we sure that was the same thing I dropped. Well of course it is a priority to clean that area and I did spray it well. 

As for the infected site. It seems to not be infected but it is not completely healed either. Possibly from having a 5.7 A-1C. now do we know if all the bacteria is gone from the scab skin layer that might not have been reached by the medicine drink.  I am thinking do one more application of the newer ointment. And tonight is the final dose of the drink medicine.

I’m going to miss my sleeping bag but I decided to throw it away.
