My first attempt at making dark chocolate candy with salt sprinkles. Not too bad, although I'd like to add some caramel and maybe nuts.

I ran 13.1 miles yesterday (half marathon). The morning started out cold and no wind but warmed up and became windy. I pushed my endurance a bit and ended up walking about the last 1.5 miles but I got it done. Even though I was drinking water and salt water, I had still depleted my electrolytes and I got a bit overheated. My left knee was bothering me quite a bit but it is feeling better this morning. I had put a cold pack on it, magnesium spray, scraped it, hot bath with Epsom salts and cupping. This morning I'm applying hot Comfrey water on it. I have some serious training to do before the half marathon race on May 30th.

I ran my 4th 10k Sunday, although I was feeling tired from a lack of sleep. My time wasn't great but I finished. Getting ready for my first half marathon on May 30th.

I ran 8 miles this morning. Fastest mile was 9:02 with an overall pace of 13:21. I'm seeing improvements. Getting ready to run a 10k a week from Sunday in Springdale. Then I'll run my first half marathon May 30th. I never thought I'd run a 5k, let alone a half marathon. From death's door in 2013 to striving to get healthy. It's been quite the journey.

Deviled eggs made with homemade mayonnaise sounded good. Chickens have been laying quite a few eggs, so the dogs and chickens have been getting some, since Christie and I can't keep up.

I got the 2nd pile of compost spread. I still need more since it is only about 3 inches deep. I spoke with a woman who has horse manure mixed with pine shavings. I'll probably use my 16 foot trailer and make several trips. I probably will just plant potatoes and onions this year and finish getting the garden and rock wall prepped for next year. One day at a time, one shovel at a time.

I checked on my chickens to close them up for the evening and I'm missing one. No sign of feathers, so hopefully it found a place to roost out of the weather. Chickens aren't the smartest animals. Found 2 the other day under the propane tank, which is 20 feet from their coop.

This morning the windows were open and now I've got a fire going. It's snowing. Welcome to Arkansas bipolar weather. It's supposed to be in the 80's in a couple of days.
