Most nights (actually early mornings) I get between five and six hours of sleep. But last night, I went to my OPC (Old People Chair) around 9:30. That's because I was bored with my New Delly. I have to ration my internet usage, you know, to get through the month. So I couldn't go hog wild on YouTube slot machine videos. Or on my conspiracy sites.
I am past the days of pooh-poohing my OPC! It sure is comfortable. I only had the heater on last night. Not the
One minute I was switching between Flea Market Flip and My Lottery Dream Home, and the next minute I was waking up at 2:20 a.m. at a cut to commercial so folks could discuss which half-million dollar house they wanted. Wow. I was almost refreshed. My knees didn't hurt too much, because I took the night off from walking because Farmer H needed an earlier supper so he could get to the auction.
I went to bed, but had a bit of trouble falling asleep, because my mind fixated on next week's book blurb that is marinating in my mind. Of course I've forgotten all the brilliant ideas I had. I should have gotten up to jot them down. Oh, well.
Anyhoo...between the chair snooze and the bed sleep, I racked up some rack time!
I think my knees might be sending me a thank-you card.
I fell asleep last night on the couch and just woke up at 4 in the morning... Not 7 hours of sleep, but more than my usual 5...
ReplyDeleteWow!! Good for you. I get great ideas just as am dozing off. I tried talking into my phone on that list icon, but I woke myself up. Wasn't worth it. I need all the sleep I can get this time of year.
ReplyDeleteSioux,
ReplyDeleteYou need an Old People Chair! Then you could add on a couple hours of ZZZZZs. A couch is for amateurs.

Kathy,
I don't see how you get any sleep at all, between those crazy people calling you, and a bed full of fur babies, and HeWho being so careful not to wake you when he gets up.
