Loss of Power

"I am NOT sick"

Every year my allergies flare up, my coughing gets more violent and I seem to have a loss of energy . I am not one to take medication and I would prefer not to unless it were the last alternative not that we have any medications on hand anyway. Last Friday I barely made it through the day but I stayed at work until the end. I had a general lack of energy, chills and conversly hot spells (or do I mean hot flashes). The weekend was a lost cause. I had no appetite and diet consisted of bland food, not to trigger more irregularity with my stomach. Things remained stable for a few days and after a day or two of Tylenol, cough syrup with codeine and differing brands of sinus I am nearly back to normal. Not quite, but starting today I started to eat as normal.

"I am NOT sick"

As I use the computer a lot at work, I didn't wish to stress my eyes by turning on my laptop at home, until tonight. I found it interesting to watch CNN news about the BP oil disaster while sitting on the couch wrapped in a large comforter. With all the detailed reporting of all the events which went wrong and what BP had to say about their problems, I am of the belief that you cannot trust any words that come out of the mouths of BP. They say all the right words but fail to follow through in action. BP has also hired many of the cleanup workers who had to sign a non disclosure agreement to not speak about the spill or risk losing prospects of compensation.

"I am NOT sick"

One thing I mentioned a while back was about the local Ukelele group where Mrs Skoot spends some time on the 3rd Tuesday of every month

I do attend once in a while and join in the sing-a-long, take a few videos and here is one that I recorded during the last May meeting. Daphne is a great singer and I hope you like her rendition of "Crazy"

I even managed to put in a photo of my former bike
