Laryngitis
Laryngitis is an inflammation of the voice box, or larynx, that causes your voice to become raspy or hoarse. In my case, completely gone.
Most of the time, it comes on quickly and lasts no more than 2 weeks. (2 weeks is a long time!)
With most cases of laryngitis, home treatment is all that you need. Try to rest your voice, add moisture to the air in your home with a humidifier or vaporizer, and drink plenty of fluids.

Love
THE IRONY OF LOVE...... is loving the right person at the wrong time, having the wrong person when the time is right, and finding out that you love someone right after that person has walked out of your life.
Sometimes you think you're already over a person, but when you see them smile at you, you suddenly realize that you're just pretending to be over them, just to ease the pain of knowing that they will never be yours again. For some, letting go is one way of expressing how much they love a person, but for others it's holding on to that special feeling as long as possible before it fades away.
Most relationships tend to fail not because of the absence of love, love is always present, it's just that one was being loved too much and the other wasn't being loved enough.
We all know that the heart is the center of the body, but it beats on the left. Maybe thats the reason why the heart is not always right. Most often, we fall in love with the person we think we love only to discover that for them, we are just a pass time, while the one who truly loves us remains either a friend or a stranger.
So here's a piece of advice: Let go when you are hurting too much. Give up when you or the other believes love isn't enough, and move on when things are not like before. There is someone out there who will honestly love you, and only then will you know true love.

WTA Day
Liz and I volunteered with the Washington Trails Association to clear a trail in the Snoqualmie National Forest. We started off the day clearing the start of the trailhead as you coule barely tell a trail started there. Luckily, we had purchased "Joy of Gardening" gloves from Fred Meyer the day before and we ready with the clippers to clear down some weeds and major over-grown plant life. After that, we started rebuilding a wall that had fallen with rocks. And when I say rocks, I mean boulders. It took us over 2 hours to esablish 6 rocks.\
Liz helped by being the brains of the rocks and I was the muscle. But she did help out as I was rolling the rocks down the riverbed by grunting and claiming "that looks heavy!". It was good fun.
At the end of the day in our sweet helmets.
