Cooler weather made me forget to drink more water

Dumped the majority of my medication stockpile and reduced it to less than a dozen. 

Recently discovered that most of my ailments were caused due to dehydration and can be treated without medication, simply by drinking more water.

On average, persons over 65 tend to have less water retention.  It's quite obvious with more frequent visits to the toilet.  Quite often I wake up early in the morning with a need for a toilet visit.

A recent incident made me realize that hospitalization last year for intestine pains, which included a number of examinations and medications, could have been avoided and was caused by dehydration.

Most recently muscles temporarily tensed up causing extreme pain. Also had equilibrium difficulties with dizzy spells nearly passing out. After a few days of intense water drinking and single daily doses of electrolyte, these symptoms have dissapeared. Medications for these symptoms are 'on hold.' 

Not surprised that my migraines also dissipate with an electrolyte drink.

Elderly who have too much water retention should consult a doctor as edema can lead to serious medical conditions.

Air Quality depends a lot on wind direction

With the slightest wind there's a lot of dust in the air during the dry season. I witness that very obviously on my white tiled pool, which requires twice weekly cleaning to turn grout white.

Drive along any of the local highway construction sites and you get a snout full of dust, especially if you're on a motorcycle.  

Then of course there's yard waste burning

Occasionally these things get out of control

Win continues to elude U-19 Sakon FC

U19 Sakon FC Hosted Nong Bua Lamphu SA (Sport Association).  Lineup changes from a previous game were obvious.  Action was fast paced and Nong Nua Lamphu had the upper hand during the first half.  They kept the Sakon FC goal keeper very busy. During the second half Sakon FC offense seemed to have gotten into high gear, unfortunately not fast enough to improve the final score 4-3 loss.
