The summers cranking down,
I could feel it. I was actually up early this morning don't know why,
I just couldn't sleep any longer. I think I was excited about not
only having the sink, my kitchen sink, repaired but also having a new
handheld shower device installed in the shower. Dianne took out the
broken handheld installed the new. Those two items alone may have
risen the excitement level inside me to the point where I was done
sleeping probably around 355 of 4 AM. I got up and cathed I returned
to bed in full expectation of getting a few of more winks of sleep
soon realized I was done sleeping for the night. I did lay in bed for
another hour but finally drag myself up around six, showered and
shaved(high and low) and got on deck made coffee and wash the dishes
with the new faucet. Everything worked fantastic. I'm so pleased to
have a new shower head and a new faucet of my kitchen sink. So why
should I not be excited? I am so blessed.
It's not that I'm worried
about the lack of sleep I'm experiencing because odd as it is I seem
to get along fine during the day. Oh, I do enjoy those days that for
one reason or another I do get more four or five hours of sleep– –
these days are a gift and I cherish them when they come but I don't
expect them. I should try to sleep, nap during the day especially now
that I have time during the day where I could but I just don't. It's
hard for me. I kind of think I wake up in the early morning, as I do,
because I have a full bladder and of course in order to relieve that
sensation I have to get up, transferred to my wheelchair and go in
open up a catheter for about suited to my penis drain into the bag
rinse the bag been pushed back into the bed and transfer. There have
been days usually earlier in the night that I'm unable to fall back
to sleep but it seems 3:30 AM or later I am too awake to return to
slumberland. This was not an issue when I was in the workforce
because I could get up get on with my routine, make breakfast and do
whatever I get out to work. And everyone knows getting to work early
is never frowned upon by your boss – – I would get a leg up on my
day. And if nothing else, like when I worked for the state, I could
use this time to write which I have to did this time was my blog time
this worked out great. I miss this routine and regimentation that my
life had. To keep this regimentation now would almost be a heroic
effort. I am no hero.
The weather continues to
be cool, cooler than expected for this time of year in fact, I
consider wearing long for the first time this summer. This truly is
discouraging but it's the way that it is and I'm thankful to have
long pants and the physical ability to put them on myself. It looks
like rain...
