This old grey stallion...ain't what he used to be
I hired my daughter's boyfriend, his buddy and my two boys to remove some unwanted trees and brush that had taken root under two of my older pine trees and brush under my deck. They did a terrific job and I felt a little funny standing on the side so I started fetching some things for them and generally doing light things. However it was a very hot day and even though I thought that I paced myself, the heat got the better of me.
I had to go inside and treat myself for an asthma flare. Fortunately the neb treatment did the trick. It seems I just can't do much anymore. Actually it was one of my sons who noticed and said "Dad, Is that you making that whistling sound?" When he said that I knew it was time to go in. If I had stayed with them much longer, I could have been in real trouble. When will I ever learn?
Oh well, fool me 14 times shame on you.
Be well,
Tom

Awww Tom. So sorry. I know how it is when asthma reminds you it is still there. Ughh....so glad you had the guys help you do the yard work. Rejoice you have family that lovingly helps you out. You are NO fool, Tom, just a guy that really wants his old life back. I can so relate. Take care!
