Coffee is ready, gonna be a nice day. I think I’m gonna work on mud holes. I have a large one where I need to back up and have almost gotten stuck before. So I have to angle the truck to avoid the mud trap. My son told me to wait for it to dry up, put down a layer of lime, a layer of dirt, etc. Amazing! The lime caused the dirt to set up and it’s not the mud trap it once was. I didn’t get finished before it rained again. So I think I’ll move dirt and lime today. Supposed to rain tomorrow.

I learned something new -- lime on dirt to stabilize! Like it. I've got a spot or two like that. Woohoo. Repairs coming. A pile of heavy clay soil, too. Trying this right away...rains Thur.

Have some "bicep tendonitis" in right arm 😵‍💫😖 hurts! NAISADS & rest/limit use. Well I'm right handed -- how's that gonna work out? 😳🫤 Good luck.

Coffee & looking over work schedule. :idunno glad feed storage tubs are all full. Bad time to have this issue. Moving a ton isn't recommended. :\

I feel your pain! I have it in both arms. Started in my right arm so I started using my left arm more. Left arm said "too much" and developed its own problem. NSAIDS yes, ice if needed Rest is best - but that doesn't happen around here and probably doesn't for you either! Hope you feel better soon!

Worked today but carefully and moved heavier lift jobs out a week. Reset dental areas today, I can still lift those tubes ☺️ Also applyied some comfrey/plantain oils I had made. Took NSAIDS. So far, just achy but --- time for more pills! Gotta keep the inflammation down. Oh, a few minutes of hot water in morning shower felt good, relaxed the area.

You sure learn fast which way to not turn that arm! 😵‍💫
