Sleep Habits

 Do you have a routine?  Go to bed and rise at the same time?

I used to but for the past month or so I can't seem to fall asleep right away.  My brain won't shut down.  Also I get up to many times during the night to use the toilet (I know to much information?).  This causes me to sleep later.  I used to be able to go to bed around 2200 and get up anywhere from 0400--600.  Today I got up at 0740

Oh, and I nap far to often!  Which I'm sure messes with my sleep cycle

Tuesday 23 June

I was up at 0740.  I've had shredded wheat with blueberries and soy milk.  My coffee of course. Jim had Cheerios with strawberries and oat milk, perhaps a cup of tea.

We dressed and left the house around 1030 as Jim had an 1100 appointment with his Primary Care Physician at the VA Medical Center.  He's anemic!  But nothing that won't keep him around for a little while longer.  He was supposed to have PT but it was cancelled.  I managed to walk around the building while he was being seen, getting some exercise, steps and trying to stay warm.  Why are medical buildings so cold?

I was hungry and we had agreed to have lunch out.  I suggested breakfast because I don't cook what he wants at home.  Canopy Roads has an extensive menu and we each ordered something different.  I had corned beef hash, scrambled eggs, grits and a biscuit.  Jim had fried eggs, bacon, toast, coffee and a fruit bowl. I should not have eaten my meal...made my stomach queasy.  

On the way home we dropped off a couple bags of 'stuff'  at Goodwill.

I had a nap mostly because of my queasiness.  I think Jim stayed in his chair for the last four hours...oh wait he did get up once.  Not sure we should have gotten it!  He spends more time in it than he should.

Fathers Day

 June 21, Fathers Day

An ordinary day at home.  Coffee and cereal with blueberries for breakfast, Jim had tea and cereal.  Sonsearae was bringing us dinner, mostly for Jim, but that's ok because I didn't have to cook.

Decided to watch Mama Mia because it was gloomy and rainy.  It's such a bright cheery movie with lively music. Halfway into it we got hungry so we both had salads.  Jim had a 1905 salad and I just had a veggie and olive salad.

Just as we finished the movie Sonsearae arrived with all sorts of goodies 😊 Meatloaf, taters, gravy, mac & cheese, peas and green beans.  All of Jim's favorites. Even lettuce and tomatoes so we could make a salad also.

We got to hear all about the Alaskan Cruise.  She enjoyed it more than she thought she would.  Of course it was a bucket list item for Chris, so he really enjoyed it!  She brought us a souvenir.  They plan to upload all the pictures to the TV and we'll enjoy a slide show when we visit them.

After she left we were treated to more rain.  I'm hoping the area is getting really soaked and we're not in drought conditions anymore.  It's sad driving around and seeing empty ponds and waterways.

all is right in our world
