Yup.You just have to rest a lot more, because it takes longer to heal. Enjoy those naps. I usually get at least one per day. Ha Ha Ha.

I'm at 3-4/day. Before this I rarely took even one. By the way, I also get a good night's sleep.
Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
I get a good night's sleep to Dave. it's okay. I have learned to just go with the flow and enjoy doing what I can every day and the rest isn't important. It has also helped to have a friend whom I can talk to about anything, we are more like brothers.

Had a good day, the last of 2 drains was removed today as were a bunch of staples. Feeling pretty good now.
