What'd you do to piss Thor off?   

He couldn't have made him too angry since the lightening struck a mile away. Not like he nuked him.

Hey, dugh.   I was out at 4:30am with Cookie, and it felt amazing. There was a cool breeze! Warmer now, but it is dull, and there is still a breeze... kind of.   

The high temp today reached 89/32° with a heat index of 98/37°. Now the storms are beginning to arrive. Hasn't effected the temp yet but tomorrow's high is forecast to be 78/25°. Quite a change.

I just came back from the chip truck, and it is hot and muggy... so much for the cooler breezes.

Since I can't nuke @Page Scrawler just yet...

Greetings Albert sorry you're not at your best. My stepdad's brother suffered from night cramps in his legs. He found drinking a small glass of tonic water helped. Something about the quinine in the water. Also, as others have noted stay hydrated. Perhaps a small glass of Gatorade or other sports drink on particularly hot days if you've sweating alot to replace electrolytes but don't do as my father did. He stopped drinking water and replaced it with sports drinks thinking if some was okay more would be better. I scolded him. He was taking in far too many electrolytes and making his kidneys work overtime without giving them enough water to do the job.

[Albert1434]

I will have to try that as well

I usually drink at least 64ozs of water plus my morning coffee.

[Albert1434]

I have been drinking water all day

Are you drinking enough water? If I don't, I get terrible cramps.  

Magnesium supplements can help too.  I've  gotten really  bad leg cramps from not drinking enough too.  And they tend to happen at night after I've done a lot of walking.   So I totally sympathize.   

[Albert1434]

Well I haven't been walking like that so

Electricity travels through water, so being a mile away is no protection.

It's cooler here with a nice breeze, but still muggy.

I know it may be difficult, particularly with the heat, to walk for long, but exercise really does help, and walking is one of the best forms of exercise.

You could try swimming. That may be easier in the warm weather. But swimming usually exercises the arms more than the legs...

Well I have Copd and emphysema so that makes walking very hard  I am going to be taking phjysical therapy twice a week for 3 hours across 9 weeks

Understood.

Have you talked with the quack doctor about possible exercises? Maybe the gym?

Indeed, I trust you have spoken to him about the night cramps?

[Albert1434]

I m hoping that well do a lot of good for me

We had around 21°C today. It's promised 25 tomorrow, but then should drop back to around 20 later in the week.
