Totally feel you on the rainwater thing. My tomatoes perked up almost overnight once I switched. The mosquito dunk tip is a lifesaver, for real.

Ugh, tell me about it. I'm out here trying to fix my sink with a hairpin and a prayer.

Wasn't there a whole book about this a while back? It talked about how we make simple tasks harder by overthinking them. Trying to build the perfect gym routine while ignoring the actual physical work in your daily life is exactly that. The chickens needing feed and the coop needing cleaning is a real workout with a real purpose. Sometimes the best system is just doing the thing right in front of you.
