I fell asleep at a decent time last night and woke up before my alarm this morning. Yay!
Doesn't mean I'm doing much before work except throwing a load of laundry in. The positive is that it does mean I've gained enough sleep that I probably won't be tired all day.
Anything I need to do around the house would probably leave me dirty or damp (like doing dishes) and I don't want to be dirty or damp all day during work.
It amazes me that the number of people seems to be growing who like to argue just for the sake of arguing. Nothing else. They generally have no valid opposing statement, just noise. I don't mind if someone has a well researched or thought out opinion different than mine. In those cases one of us will learn something. Sadly, that tends to be rarely the case.
I even got in a discussion on a growing forum last night. I was trying to explain why some crops are more expensive than others. (Some strains produce less, are more prone to disease, more difficult to grow..) I get some guy saying I'm wrong and strain degradation due to cloning is a myth. What?! Where the hell did I say that?!!
Oh, well. It's pointless. To some people anything you say which does not agree 110 percent with them is going to be an attack on them. No science, no reasoning, no common sense necessary.
5:45 PM-
Taking a break after work. Need to walk the dog and work on the car and bike.
I am seriously mentally fatigued from listening to the dog, whose whining gets worse almost daily. Not sick or anything. It's all about attention. I cannot walk out the front door, the back door or through the bathroom or kitchen without him whining incessantly. I go outside and pet him and he whines for attention while I'm petting him!
Some people may call it abuse but I gave in. I gave the dog a small amount of cannabis. Just a fraction of a gram mixed with his food. No harmful effects. It makes him happy but calmer. Doesn't completely stop the whining but drastically decreases it. So it definitely decreases my stress level and appears to decrease his, as well.
Other things I've tried have failed. Valerian, Benadryl, Melatonin.. My only other option would be to use a shock collar or have his vocal cords surgically cut. I find this a much better option, especially since the behavior is very obviously caused by him being overanxious. Other options would treat the behavior but not the cause. It's not possible by the laws of physics to give the dog the amount of attention he apparently wants, since he is crying for attention while I am paying attention to him.
Of course, this makes it more important for me to have a successful grow. Otherwise it will result in much higher expenses for me.
