What kind of idiot tries to deal with Friday afternoon traffic on NE 65th, even on a bus?

somewhere over 5 hours of sleep.


One late-morning phone call and a shower and off to Mom's to help her put tiny things I can't really see on her small tree. I love the lights and beads. I just don't care about the angel on a sled. I am glad we both agree we want to try something different next year.  We snacked on whole grain raspberry fig bars and I showed her photos of my cousins' lovely diverse families. Now about getting the whole fam together again sometime over the holidays.


I am tired of COVID. Sister and Brother in Law both have it. Nephew's concept of quarantining is, um...


View out from the breezeway. Trees still have not gotten all their leaves rained off
It's December. 
Somehow I don't think 
there are still supposed to be

Sleep the blog

There is a Chekhov short story called Sleepy, Спать хочется where the main character spends most of the story fighting sleep and the things that keep her from sleeping. In the novel "Oblomov" by Nikolai Goncharov, it takes the main character 50 pages to decide to get out of bed. RantWoman falls somewhere between these two poles. This blog is dedicated to sleep, particularly RantWoman and sleep. RantWoman needs to sleep more than she does. RantWoman does not always manage to do things that probably would help her sleep more. This blog is partly intended to collect data in hopes that RantWoman can settle on some steady practices to help her get more sleep. What time does RantWoman fall asleep? Is this before or after RantWoman goes to bed? What time does RantWoman go to bed? What time does RantWoman get up? Does RantWoman go back to bed? If so, how long does she sleep the second round? Adventures with CPAP The Queen of Spades and behavior issues. What ti...
