Pleasantly rested already.

I could actually hit something heavy yet.  However, I will wait until it is cooler, then get the sprinklers working.  And, after that, perhaps set the drip irrigation to work.  Can you believe there are some tomatoes on the plants, through the heat, without water for weeks?  They aren't the prettiest things.  Perhaps water will help.  I am not sure if anything is actually salvageable.  Time will tell.  Oh, and not all of the flowers died, just the ones in the small planters.  The big planter flowers, cactus seeming things, and such, are doing quite well.  I did put some water in all of the planters, just in case some of the seemingly dead ones might come back to life.  Hey, I've been on the edge before.  It can happen.  Actually, that is what I am doing with the tomato and jalapeno plants.  I did get out and give them some water, at their bases, before going down.  A second chance, really.  A dubious one.

It isn't what I am doing, did, or will do, that... causes me to write.  It's the little thing that isn't discussed, but around which all of that occurs, leaving room for even more.  That I am already rested up, and ready to go and would go were it not for the heat and that it isn't the right time to do the chores, is the thing that got me.  I really thought, after doing what I did this morning, that I would be done for the day... anything else I would do would have to be a heavy push.  I am very surprised, and pleased, to be back ready to do more.  My work, this evening, will still be a bit of a push, since it will be nearing the end of my day.  That's always a more difficult time to do things.  But my body won't be an additional problem.  It's a seeming tiny notion, but one that has huge implications.

Oh, I know, it will come and go.  I live in, and for, moments.  It's all I have.  When the moments are splendid, strong, easy enough... then I really get to enjoy them.  And I am.  Who could imagine enjoying work?  Physical work?  But I do.  At least as a counter to thought, or even cooperation with thought.  Later.
