I got up at 8 today, did the pet stuff and had breakfast. We didn't do the wash yesterday, so Ellen left to do it. I stayed home in case the sewer guy showed up.
The forest fires have blanketed the whole valley with smoke. There's no daylight, only a glowing orange sky. Going outside is like standing downwind of a campfire. You immediately want to go back inside. Ellen said it was worse in Woodburn.
I did take the garbage to the dumpster with the Ranger. About halfway back Lucy quit trying to sniff the wind and sat down on the seat. That's how bad the air was.
I didn't feel very good today, so I didn't eat lunch. Instead I had a short nap. Then I watched TV until the sewer guy came. He was about 2 hours earlier than normal. He said some people had cancelled and there was a lot fewer people out and about today.
I tried to use the sewer sprayer I'd bought to clean the sensors. It doesn't seem to have done any good. When I was finished we went to CVS. Ellen needed drugs and we both needed flu shots. When we drove by In-n-Out there were only about 5 cars in line. The line's been a double line out to the street every time we've gone by. So we stopped for a really late lunch. It was great. I even got a t-shirt.
We also stopped at Lowe's. They didn't have a microwave we liked. They also want almost $200 to install one.
The smoke had lightened up by the time we got home (5), but it was still pretty heavy. We fed the pets and watched TV.
There was no dinner, just some snacking. For some reason my asshole is working overtime. I must have taken 5 or 6 shits today.
