Weight drop

Dropped 4 lbs in the past week. That's in spite of drinking two protein shakes a day, equaling 1200 cals a day, aside from what I eat. 

I'm feeling it. Headache, fatigue, can feel my muscles breaking down. So, while I meant to get to work on daughter's room tonight, I'm taking a night off. Part of it is the heat. However, when muscle tissue breaks down, it throws a lot of ammonia into the blood stream. That's what's causing the headache. Heat doesn't necessarily cause the problem but does accelerate the process. 

So, tonight I'm going to just stay as cool as possible and get some sleep. If my digestive system will take it, I'll drink an extra protein shake before bed tonight. 

Got the phosphorous today and mixed a batch of phos, ammonia and acid with water in the fertilizer injector system and ran it through the irrigation for the garden. Some of it hadn't dissolved and I saved it back to wait and apply it more selectively to a few plants in the front yard. The grass is growing just fine and doesn't need it. Just applying to rose bushes and flowers.
