I saw the Dr. yesterday , the shoulder is messed up but might hold together for a while yet . I will be off through next week to let the steroids do their job and give the inflammation time to subside .  It has been really smoky here the last couple days . The fires in Mn. and Ottawa are generating lots of smoke that is drifting this way. It will also be hot again, and all the smog in the air on top of a 90+ degree day makes an ugly day .

   I found myself unable to do much of anything . Recently I have been having more trouble with my shoulder . The right side has been sore off and on for a while , but now it is getting almost impossible to ignore . I had Xrays and the Dr. said probably ought to consider shoulder replacement .I could get cortisone shots put into it but that is only a temporary fix and I do not want this to come back in six months with a vengeance.
