Each Spring at my trail work kingdom (aka; Edgemont Highlands…kinda like the Beverly Hills hovering over the relative paupers of Durango) over which feeble ilg reigns solo Chief Trail Director/Worker
there arrives what ilg has termed, “Dumpster Season”… a 2-week period within which the rich (and often snippety) residents of Edgemont Highlands are graced with 3 rotating cargo containers into which they can dump their organic yard debris. 
Pine needles and pine cones, mostly. A third container located in the western aspect of the community takes basically everything from concrete to metal debris.
This 2-week “dumpster season” spells heightened caloric and stress for Chief Trailworker Ilg, cuz;
1) it takes ilg away from trail working to police the policy inherent to appropriate use of the dumpsters, and
2) the few Bad Apples that do NOT care about rules/community harmony? well, first, ilg knows who they likely voted for and why this Daddy awakes each day wondering what new hell our Orange Leader has led us into…
Plus, ilg has SvaDharma to climb into the dumpsters and ST(OM)P down the thrown in yard debris to make more volume space available for other Residents… ilg also has to siphon through the volume to extract non-organic material because we have a treasured relationship with Table2Farm whereupon all the organic yard debris is transferred and used as mulch for our regional farm fields…
It’s truly a Win/Win if like, uh, you actually give a shit about our precious Plane(t), especially if you are a Conscious Parent…
Well, YESTERDAY
while into my 4th hour of stomping in the much more dangerous west container, ilg hyperextended my R.Knee.
immediately climbed outta the container, taped ilgs knee, loved ilgs knee for all-Ways doing her best for ilg all these 64 years and then switched jobs to maintain as much linear motion…it was extremely sharp and painful at times when ilgs compromised knee “went out”.
finished ilgs shift.
Reckon after you Self Heal fr(om) spinal paralysis, and a legion of other injuries/health challenges that a lifelong outdoor athlete deals with for 5 decades? a hyperextended knee is apparently an easy inward overnight fix; ilg self healing recipe for a deeply compromised extended knee injury that would send 99% of guys my age right to the ER… instead?
THE SELF HEALING RECIPE:
•ilg got home showered and applied ASEA Gold + Sunrider Healing Balm to the now Blessed Knee
• watched YouTube for 30 minutes of applied EMS
• went into deep Pranayama/Meditation/Mantra into the night and with the Grace of the Deities, inwardly reset the displaced tib/fib … 100% today… will run road into Trailwork tomorrow
there you have it.
simple, right?
