Silly me… my best cure for insomnia is to go do something! Last night it was sweep the floor. Tonight might be dance around the room to the classical station. Or go watch the ice crystals forming on my neighbor’s car. Who knows! I might get lucky and sleep through the night! Nite-nite!! :)
@I mad am I. Speaking of TV, I will be canceling Dish network this month. They dropped some of my local channels due to a price argument. That was the “last straw”, finally cutting the cord. It’s antenna time for me – just like in the old days.
While in the service I was posted on a walking post at zero dark thirty. This is a post on base that the only possible encroachment is by other service members. It was walking around an empty building used for training purposes. There was a patch worn around the building about 12" wide and 4" deep from all the guards over many, many years. As I was walking I started to doze off. Kind of a half awake state. I didn’t get lost or wander off because as soon as I stepped out of the walking trench, I would “automatically” return to the “right path.” It was a 2 hour walk and at 1 am when it was warm, no bugs, long day, well you get the idea.
I try reading books, mostly instruction manuals or lessons. Trouble is that as I fall asleep the book falls and hits me, but for a few seconds there, I’m out like a light. Perhaps I need heavier books.
We have a 15 minute morning online meeting and 95% of the time it has nothing to do with me and lasts longer than 15 minutes. I didn’t realize that I had dozed off (I have a private office) until later when people mentioned the discussion of US 1 being closed because chunks of concrete falling from the Roosevelt Bridge.I should tape one of these meetings for those times that I can’t sleep.
I haven’t slept a wink in weeks either King. I’m just sick. i always think I can birth poo poo sweet. I was so mad last night but i exercise my right to remain silent on that. Mostly i am mad at myself for my lofty fairy tale CREATIVITY. There is a Bible story of a king. God told him to wipe it all out and take nothing. The king took a few animals or whatever thinking God would give Grace as usual. God struck the king dead correct? Same with the man robbing the church? This Sister of Mercy is just going to prostrate myself in silent prayer. I don’t touch the HOST because Christ broke it with his Lords, not ladies! So I am not going to say much anymore as I trust The Lords of The True Lord and stop shaming my Sweetheart with lofty stupidity while egotistically calling the kettle black! When you asked me what I wanted, I should of kept the answer short. “GOD to get ALL glory”. I know it is what all really want too deep inside. No more feelings whoa whoa whoa feelings. You men are the Head, not the tail. My tail will be praying for you beautiful men of God. Thank you for you divine work in keeping Our American people so well protected.

Bakers go to bed early, so that they can be up to have their bread and rolls rise and bake early enough for other folks’ breakfast.

Sleep well, King. While you’re dreaming, the Huns have snuck in and looted your treasure room.
