All the walking

jon_chaissonOOOF. I feel like I've been walking all over creation these last few days! The Day Job was busier than usual mainly because it's Outside Lands weekend -- not the festival-goers, surprisingly, but the local neighbors who often use this weekend to have their own little parties. Cookouts, hanging out at Baker Beach and Ocean Beach, that sort of thing. Between helping those customers and completing pick-up orders, I know I've done at least 3-4 miles a day.
Today, however, was spent heading to brunch at our favorite bar and grill, stopping at the local hardware store, and finally giving some much-needed TLC to our community garden plot. Sadly our plot, which had been doing relatively good over the last couple of months, got hit broadside with an infestation of gophers eating most of our plants, and the tomato plants suddenly keeling over from blight. Hopefully our replanting (and using more gopher netting of various sizes) will keep things a bit healthier. We shall see!
But yeah, even despite sleeping in today I feel like I've been moving nonstop for the last couple of weeks. I think it might actually be due to my work schedule having been five straight days instead of the usual two-on, one-off, three-on which I've gotten used to. Thankfully this coming week I've got a 3-1-2 setup with a break on Thursday. That should help me catch up on rest!
