Coffee is ready. It got windy yesterday, going to be blustery next few days, with gusts up to 30-42 mph. Rain on Tuesday. On Thursday the winds lay low and I’m gonna fire up the 3 big burn piles.
Coffee anyone ?

Having coffee & OTC meds (pain/inflammation)for this mistreated right arm with "bicep tendonitis" 
geesh. It's achy with sharper pains if used -- a not so gentle reminder to stop.
It will be fine if I rest it a couple weeks. That's an eternity!! Would be easier to handle if left side. I'm right handed.
Just thinking through my routines and solutions. Need more coffee and my tube of aspercream
adjust jobs for a couple days 
crap! I don't do being limited very well.

For the first time yesterday since October I have been able to tear into my excavator to get it ready for when the ground gets solid enough. Felt damn good, also felt good to know business cards I handed out to people I pulled out of snow drifts netted at least one future contract that will spread.
Yeah I've got this feeling today, but too bad the weather will be bad for the next couple of days or I wouldn't be going in town today.

Good frosty morning!
It's a bit chilly to work on the hoop coop, so I am puttering around the house this morning.
My body did not appreciate my outside work yesterday, and I woke up about 1am with an inner thigh (adductor magnus) cramp starting. It wasn't as bad as in the past when the pain was so severe that it caused me to break out in a cold sweat, so I was able to carefully hobble to where the DMSO was. I rubbed some in, both thighs, and waited about 5 minutes before heading back to bed.
The cramps stopped. Totally. And I slept fine the rest of the night.
Anecdotal, I know.

TheMan wakes up screaming from cramps. I will have to get him to try the roll on
And hydrate. Make sure he drinks lots of water.

Those little (2"x3") solanpas patches have been a life saver for me. Very rapid relief of pains. I'm still using the DMSO 2x daily to try & help heal several ongoing issues, but in the mean time those are convenient to just stick on & ease it of for a few hours.Having coffee & OTC meds (pain/inflammation)for this mistreated right arm with "bicep tendonitis"

@peteyfoozer I get terrible nighttime leg cramps too! So bad that I'd be in tears for an hour waiting for something to ease it. I keep a pack of pain patches next to the bed. When an attack hits, I slap a couple of patches on & can be back asleep in minutes.

I had those in both thighs yesterday afternoon! Tears, hyperventilating.... sounded like I was in labor
It is a terrible experience.
I blame it on the downstairs bathroom at work being out - not drinking as much as normal & having to climb 2 flights of stairs and walk to the far end of the plant & back to use the upstairs one.

Up around 2am. Couldn't get back to sleep. Gave up trying. Coffee & a bagel around 3. Lunch salad made & my bag packed for work. Snuggling Chaos cat with coffee #2 now. Heading out in a couple hours... lol, new day schedule on 4hrs of sleep & copious amounts of caffeine.
