bw = 140

farm life:
- literally ~12 hours or so today
- transferred 20+ pepper transplants to bigger pots
- created a "citrus section": loquat, passion fruit, barbados cherry, valencia orange, navel orange, meyer lemon, papaya, ruby guava, miracle fruit, lime .. surrounded by some plantains + lemon grass clones.
- wanted to put all of my banana plants into 30 gallon containers but... 30 gal is too small! have to order some 40-50's, damn.. kinda nuts.

aside from that, had an awesome moment. seeing a "dragonfruit bloom" is a "moment". people get all excited to watch it happen. you can literally watch it unfold.. then it closes back up in a few hours apparently.

so i was just watering and boom, noticed it flowering. really cool, wasn't expecting it at all.

it's one of the sickest looking flowers.. and that's what creates a "dragon fruit".

some photos of it that i posted to ig:









i also somehow managed to get a 7 ft lowquat tree into my civic.. lmfao. will post a photo of the tree tmw. kinda nuts how i got it into the civic with 5 x 50 qt bags of dirt, plus a few other trees.

i might buy some more "mature trees".. lowquat was only $50 for a 7 ft mature tree. pretty cheap considering.. might hit up a citrus nursery occasionally and get more stuff.

some solid AELS to report.

2020-07-09:
- planned rest
- bumped inside of knee on chair.. tender. so took the next day off as well

2020-07-10:
- forced rest
- knee felt fine
- bumped it again on a chair, but on the outside .. actually became very painful - tendinitis-ish feeling
- forced myself to take the next 2 days rest

2020-07-11:
- forced rest

2020-07-08:
- forced rest

lol.

feel great now.. plan to run tomorrow morning (13th). going to run in an area that i've been looking at, for a potential house etc. lots of huge parks/trails/lakes/canals there. 45 min from work but, could be worth it.

proud of myself for being able to rest so easy now.. when i was in runner-grind mode, i'd have run through both of those stupid tweaks. :derp:

need to stop bumping my knee tho.. out of nowhere i bump it 2 days in a row. wtf. 8|

bw = 146

feel good


run:
- 3 hours mixed surfaces (dirt/grass/sand/rocks/asphalt), 1 hour walk
- a few stops mixed in, in the 3 hours (call from co-worker, taking photos, etc)

- ran in an area i'm looking at houses .. ~1 hour from me, ~45 min from work. more north, more farmy. lots of state parks, tons of trails, pretty nice

- when i get there, some cyclist (Bill) likes me running in my cowboy hat, so he says "nice running hat!", so instead of him just keep going, we talk a bit as i was running and him cycling. talked for like 5 min then separate ways. cool tho, nice guy. lol.

- ran passed this dude selling watermelons (William) a few times. He'd always give me the thumbs up and say something positive.. so at the end im actually walking back and i was dehydrated as fu*k. he saw me and offered me an unopened bottle of water. so i took it, we spoke for a bit, then i told him i'd be back to get a watermelon.

- about 30 min later i come back w/ my car and buy a watermelon. he was cracking up, here we are in the pouring rain, me w/ a cowboy hat & eating the watermelon w/ a combat knife. he took a photo of it, probably posted it on his fb or something. anyway was funny. good dude.

- mostly very positive experiences when i run in "country folk" areas. lots of polite people. always enjoy that.

picture of the watermelon:



i ate half of it. was good. just what i needed. ears were completely "popped" from lack of fluids, and throat was dry as fuck. lost > 10 lb water. eeeeh.

feel good now, other than calves/feet cramping randomly.

ate a ton of salt/sugar/rehydrated almost completely etc.

bw = 143
soreness = none
aches/injuries = right calf tight (fucking cramp janked up the soleus)

run:
- 1 hour light
- felt great
- right calf got tighter after

no running until that heals up.

crazy how a "cramp" can leave that long lasting damage. calves cramped up a few times on sunday, right mostly. so now it's still "tighter" and tightens up when i do a knees over toes squats (w/ feet flat).

sux.

who knows could loosen up in a few days, or might take a bit longer.

whatever. gardening tmw.
