Woke up feeling fatigued and creaky again this morning. I should have all my energy back by now, but I don't. Consulting the weather and inciweb, discover I am up against smoke, ozone, dust from yesterday's storm, and altitude, plus the few new pounds that have crept on recently. The altitude doesn't normally bother me after a couple of days, but I think combined with just a bit of ozone, my system gets the urge to lie down and rest.

So I am staying indoors as much as I can, 'hunkering down', and chipping away at things in blocks of time; paperwork for a while, kitchen for a while, etc. Maybe I can get out and water the shrubs in the dusk hour when the 100-degree temps break.
