RantWoman Sleeps--or Not

Almost 6 hours of sleep. Not as much end of yeary cleanup as I hoped. Too busy attempting social obligations and thinking about how to weave threads of the earworm of the week into modern reflections and being grateful for yesterday's procrastination party. Here is another earworm iteration, though the internet also abounds with flash mobs and Zumba classes and performaces than hack off a crucial last bit.

almost 6 hours of sleep. The dry leaves are because this time of year any leaves on the ground after proper rain should just be slime. And they are still dry enough to be heard blowing around.  And I will try not to catastrophize about melting ice caps and receding glaciers and drowning polar bears and whether or not trees and animals can adapt. Instead I will grab a song about a long ago revolutionary upheaval to distract myself from...Nobody seems to cover it but there are plenty of videos involving dancing or marching military formations. So here, grab some zumba

5 ish hours of sleep. I am a grownup.  I HAD to get out invitations to my holiday procrastination party. Then I made the grownup decision to watch 3 videos about Russia, Ukraine and economic issues by people from Russia and the former SU and THEN to start an hour-long  video about a Stanford professor's theory about why Putin invaded Ukraine: Putin is afraid of democracy and there have been too many democratic uprisings over his terms in office. Nice theory. Good argument. And that's not all of it.  I also made the grownup decision to look at Twitter, at the Twitter ID I specifically cultivate to receive such content, just about the time Russia launched this morning's missile and drone barrage. Estimates were all over the map about what percentage were intercepted by Ukrainian air defense. I think it's entirely reasonable to pray that the invader's missiles malfunction or go astray and land in places they can do not harm.  Assorted other "it's worthwhile to...

           Almost SEVEN hours of sleep And a bunch of bills paid before bed. Adulting is just grand. What does one do with a present that perhaps is supposed to be a reindeer

I think it was about 5 hours of sleep but I may have hit almost 6 I am glad it is still warm enough to open lots of windows. My schedule is all messed up by rearranged meetings. So much for chores. One of my favorite excuses to spend too much time on YouTube and one of about a zillion vids talking about how a certain governor really should read more of the Bible and ior encourage politicians to vote for orderly process to move people on....

With thanks again for the heroic Christmas plant I THINK 6 hours of sleep. I WILL check the device that I still can't bluetooth to. And if I am going to have to provide accessibility consulting about several steps in the upgrade process gosh dang it I want someone to PAY ME.. Still basking in glow of yesterday. Also basking not right word for thinking about a couple topics that came up. My one friend is not seeing things like fallen branches in their yard and oh, my, it probably has to do with more vision loss due to glaucoma. PS. This is WAY too much drama. I left my apartment about12:30. I got ready to come back around 5. The elevators were locked on the entry level floor which means the fire department was in the building. Thank you I guess grapevine for telling me the fire was in the apartment below me. I finally decide just to walk the stairs which I absolutely should do more often just to maintain girlish figure or at least better endurance. Of course my floor and apartment r...

Well over 6 hours of sleep. woot. Also just too tired to do more. My kitchen smells like cranberry bread. My heart is full. Between my grandfather and candles and my friends who share my opinion of croutons, DON'T Bother, only in stronger terms, it has been a full day. See if I can knock off the Youtube and just SLEEP
