RantWoman Sleeps--or Not

 This story makes me GRIN. Nice work goats 1:38 hours trying to sleep followed quite a bit of crashing around getting stuff don.

 More Pandemic music video I think, but still 7:38 hours of sleep. I really needed it. Not up in time to wash hair before meeting with mentee but great conversation and now I am sweaty and MUST shower. Gorgeous day.  FUN place to eat.

 I am probably actually in a better mood than this song title suggests. But between a wave of Mom grief and angst about soon hitting a major birthday and the endless lure of Youtube, sleep was not to be had. Plus with fresh new kitchen light bulbs suddenly I had energy and Swiffer mop resources to TACKLE THE FLOOR GRIME or at least to make major strides. A couple spells of dozing and a two-hour nap. Too tired now to have energy for hurting. Also did NOT get out of the house while the sun was gorgeous. Grrr I did manage PT and will ride bicycle while I tend to some other record keeping.

She overhears one woman just ask her ordinary things like how are you doing after your child's birth. The Amish woman did not even have mental space or anyone who would ask the same of her. The other genre is revenge videos where sometimes really disg...

 I have tried a tea like this a few times. Using candied ginger is nice. 4:40 hours of sleep. Almost full count of exercises, at least one set of each. Who knows why leg is crampy. Could it be THE BUS? Gorgeous day. Much adventure doing something LIVE instead of electronically.

 Never too often to encounter this one. 4:?? hours of sleep. I REALLY need to get to bed at a more reasonable hour, but praise god, no leg cramps.
