10 years ago Thursday I had my bilateral lung transplant. I celebrated with a little bike ride.

Of course I would have done this on Thursday but the wildfires up north had other ideas.

Ok, but no improper nouns. This is a family forum.

It’s 158 here. Grey skies but I don’t smell smoke. You feel something’s off though, an “ugh” sensation being outdoors.

With better air, I’d be on my bike. I hate not riding in otherwise nice weather.

Yep. I keep putting off my ride another day…. Before you know it a week passes.

We’re supposed to get that rain today

I wonder if Collins is a no vote given a tough election in a bluish state?

I hope Blanche does it and still doesn’t get Tillis’ vote.

I actually wore a suit. Selling shoes at Kinney's.

Yeah that’s what it was like for me to be a member of the Met, the MOMA, and later the science museum with the boy. Guilt-free short visits.

That’s what the boy is making as a lifeguard at the town pool this summer.

Part time.

Hell, I made around $4 per hour at his age. Even with inflation that’s maybe $12.

After his first shift I asked him if he got bored just sitting there for an 8 hour shift. He said ‘not really, there’s always some kid doing something stupid’.

I had a 50mi ride planned for today, my 10th anniversary of my transplant. Alas, I’m putting it off until tomorrow because of Canadian fires.
