Day 9.  I saw some headline that we have the worst air on the planet, I'm not sure if that's true but we are up there for sure.  You can see it, smell it, and taste it.  This graphic of the smoke is, well, fascinating and awful.

Masks are sold out, we've searched and all the shelves are empty.  I ordered some last night online but they won't be here until next week.  At home our HEPA filter is on and I have the internal air on circulate and have a stack of clean filters so I can change them.  When we're all in for the day I've been putting a towel up against the bottom of our front door so the smoky smell from the hallway doesn't seep in under the door.

I've been limiting my time outside to just brief errands.  Today was a bit further afield but still making sure outside time was as short as possible.  I did check in at the local Walgreens there for masks but they were all out too.


What week.  Again.  Saying that too often, but really.
