Well…it does appear that my new wake up time is around 6:30 since it has been a couple of weeks since I woke up earlier than that and I still don’t know what changed from the 4-5 o’clock wake ups that I was having but I’ll take it…and I’m holding my breath but it appears like my elbow is getting better…the swelling is down some and I’m in much less pain and I’ll take that, too…and it looks like I won’t be getting out on the bike until after 9 this morning since it is only 48 out there right now and I don’t want to go out in a fleece….I do think I’m going to have to take a day off here soon just to get a repair day and let my body heal up and that may be tomorrow since it is supposed to rain overnight and into the morning…maybe I’ll just do one ride in the afternoon and count that as a rest day…..I am really surprised at how good my garden is looking with how sandy the soil is here….both the beans and tomatoes look really healthy and I’ve even had more than a half dozen pepper plants survive…I’m trying to figure out how to keep the tomatoes upright since they are already as tall as the cages and the cages fell over last year…so, I bought some 4 foot long stakes and some garden twine and I am going to build a lattice so see if that works better than the cages….and I tied all of the cages together to give them a little more stability and that will be something to watch over the summer….not much to do today…going to clean some and just take it easy a bit…I think my body needs me to stop abusing it so much and I could use a morning where I just sit a bit and have some coffee…so I think I will…more later…
