Almost funny.

Doing well enough, if not doing much.  Food, medicine, tending the girls.  Not much else.  I am considering trying to make a call.  We'll see.  I have to sprouts in the sun.  On the third day, they say.  Greens them up.  Not sure, as I said, that bean sprouts gain anything from it.  The alfalfa does.  Not sure if greening is a good or bad thing, the way I see things.  Might have to experiment, do some reading, figure it out.

Still, I was almost about to shower and get the pack ready for a hike.  Not on Sunday, as a general rule.  If I have been down a very long time, I might try to push some work through.  But not other things, so much.  Yeah, I have probably erred on that.  Though often when I wasn't in a condition to know one day from another, not on a truly conscious level.  Even when it seems like I'm firing on all eight... looks can be deceiving.  Had to chuckle though.  Tomorrow.

No headache so far.  I am hoping to get further into the day, too.  I have to get out for groceries, to pick up some items from the post and a store, so I might as well hit the trail.  I'm honestly excited to attempt the full run with the pack, and then if that goes well, to pack and use the bigger pack next time.  I'm not even going to weigh it, just pack what I currently consider a two to three day gear and food set.  That is, if I can do the full run with the smaller pack.  I will probably be moving the thirty pound pack weight up to fifty to seventy.  I might not get the full distance the first time I use it.  I would like to work up to eighty to a hundred pounds, maybe even push that in time.  Good for the legs.  Just those three hikes I have done so far, plus the other stuff, has tweaked leg to butt.  A very good thing.  I'm amazed how much just a few months, of this and that, have shaped and strengthened.  Hmm... better use the best hiking boots for the heavier weight though.  Might even have to consider even heavier boots still.

The sun is out, but it seem pretty cool.  As things work out here, that cool, if the weather clears and stays clear, can turn harshly hot in a hurry.  I hope tomorrow isn't too bad.  Getting out early would help, a bit.  At least for now.  I can hope that I can acclimatize to heat, though that is particularly difficult with a steep shift.  I'll... do what I can.  Later.
