We returned to the putative crocuses patch; alas, there was no change with just two slender shoots once again striving to live. We both tried a shot, but we weren’t successful with our results being on the blurry side. It’s a tough task for seniors to get down and get the shot.
I realized that my sleep was over at 5:30 yesterday morning after only 4:40 of sleep, so I rose up. It was better than the 4:10 of the previous night and also better because I went to sleep earlier and got up earlier, which is preferrable to late and late. On the previous night, it had taken me hours to fall asleep, and that grinds my gears. (Last night, I got a whopping 3:40. This is unusual, even for me.)
Shortly after 9, I found myself at the grocery store. A little later I was off to Ashton Church to pick up apple pies for Easter only to find the door shuttered. Apparently pickup will be next Saturday. It's okay; it is only a 10-minute drive.
Closed or not, I am posting a photo of the church. You’ve seen it before if you’ve been visiting me for a few years, but I don’t think I posted anything last year. Maybe I'll take ann inside photo next week.
Here's another photo of the shed on the same farm. I brightened the photo a little in this case to try to make the scene a little more appealing.
What a beautiful church! My dad used to complain about his sleep cycle and then he decided he'd sleep when he felt like it and be up when he felt like it. He'd be up all hours of the night writing his great American Novel until he felt like laying down or if it was winter, he'd go cross country skiing by moonlight.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to adopt his attitude.
Hello darkness my old friend....
Are you really tired during the daytime? Our sleep cycles really go wonky the elder we get. I've seen that with my FIL, MIL, and other folks. We should be in college pulling all nighters!
Hope you get some good rest soon.
If consecutive nights accumulate like this, it gets a bit much. I need to sleep over 5 hours, so 3 in a row like this can get to me. I don’t know why this is happening all of a sudden.
DeleteLoved the snowy geese photo. Hope sleep comes for you and you get a nap. Some days I even have 2...but yesterday no nap and couldn't pull myself away from my audio book until several hours past my usual bedtime. Then a dream shook me awake at my normal 7ish time.
