Meant to post this yesterday. PM me should any of you like a postcard. I enjoy sending out happy snail mail and would be happy to send you one. You, of course, have my absolute word that your information would never be shared

Good morning! It seems my body just can’t sleep past 4:00am now. I’ve been wide and decided I might as well just get up. No weather to blame it on, just wide awake.

AnnaS, Extra hugs sent your way. I’m so sorry for your loss.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and hopefully we all sleep better tonight.

Extra hug to you as well BLTtinkerbell. It's after 2am here. I'm tired but up. It's also warm in my room because we're waiting (God willing later today) to talk with the management company of our building. There is possible mold on the wall where my through the wall air conditioner is. The unit was not fitted completely well. Want to be sure there is no mold before turning on the AC. We have no clue whether there is mold on the wall and or in the AC. Much better to take the healthy route of having it checked out. Keep cool, be safe, and sleep well friends.

@flyingdumbo127 Thank you!

Sorry you’re awake so early.

You definitely have to be careful in case it is mold. Keep us posted.

Thank you @flyingdumbo127 and @BLTtinkerbell

Thinking of all of you and sending extra love. Please do PM me if you would enjoy a postcard

Feet wise over the last month+ I have begun walking with the walker in the common walkway area just outside my apartment door. I have gotten stronger. I need to work more on getting up from my recliner chair and balancing. My feet are still very heavy feeling and stiff. One day at a time always I pray that I may serve God in some way.

Sleep story is the same which means I pretty much sleep during the day a few times and am up at night no matter how tired I am. I trust this too shall pass. I would appreciate extra healing prayers. Dad has been going through some extra health issues. It's so hard to be homebound and not able to go out normally and do errands so he can rest. How sincerely blessed we are each day to have together with and for God.

Hug to all and prayers all of you are sleeping peacefully right now.

Did you ever wake up and feel like someone is staring at you? Get up mommy!

I love all cats.

 

[LoveDaisy]

Cats are weird. Woke up at 3:45 to Boris making a crazy sound. Come down to look. There is a fox on the patio. He continues to make the noise and Natasha comes to see what he’s talking about.

He attacks Natasha while making the noise. I break them up, turn on the lights on the patio, scare the fox off but Boris continues to make the weird noise. I try to pick him up and he freaks out. A few minutes later he attacks Natasha again. Then the two of them are all squatting down and having a stare down.

I call Natasha over and pet her while Boris pulls himself together. A few minutes later he coos for his sister, she walks over and all is fine. They are curled up together.

The fox clearly freaked him out and I’m wondering if he was trying to get her away from the door that overlooks the patio. Super weird. They are brother and sister from the same litter and have never been apart. The only time they are weird with each other is after the vet when they don’t smell like themselves. I have never heard him make that noise before and they are both chatty cats.

I'm a dog person who of course wishes all cats well and thanks their human companions for giving them kind care.

I'm still sleeping primarily during the day. I am blessed to be getting a solid overall hours+ period a day. I trust one day my cycle will normalize again.

Wishing each of you a great day with a hug.

Time change is not my friend. I never really adjust to falling back and I wake up at 4 when it should be 5 until we spring forward

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Hug LoveDaisy. This is an extra long night for me, too. It should be 3 yet it's only 2 here in CA. I pray to still be able to sleep well during the day. I know this, too shall pass. Same for you my friend. Things will get brighter. I truly believe by my faith every moment is a gift. I am so grateul to God for each of you in this thread. I wish all of you joy and sweet dreams always.

My cats will sometimes take it out on each other when there is another animal outside, too. I hesitate to call it "normal" but I do think it's "common" if that makes sense. Cats are weird.

I have to give a shout-out to mine this morning, though, for not waking me up at 4:00! We had a serious talk and some extra food last night, and it seemed to work.

Hug PollyannaMom. I'm grateful your cats slept in and let you do the same

I'm typically up by 430 am to get ready for work. I can't sleep in at all. Funny though, my body adjusts to Disney time, no problem. During a vacation 7 am seems early.

Wishing all of you a good week ahead with sweet dreams always.
