I kept waking.

But I didn't want to get up. Sleep! My body said. I had no idea what time it was but it must be late, right? I could see the sun was up, but couldn't wrap my mind around what time it really was and didn't want to look or couldn't really quite wake enough to look... or something. After I got my fill of sleep, figuring it was probably afternoon, I got out of bed. I didn't look at the time right away because I hate waking late and would figure it out soon enough. When I finally looked I had to laugh. At just past 8:00 it was still very much morning, and for me early morning. What a weird morning already. I did get to bed rather earlier last night, though I am not sure I had a lot of choice there. I was well and truly worn down.

I am still having a sense that I pushed things lately, so today is going to be a mild housebound day. Perhaps some dishes. Perhaps some laundry. No full court presses though. No heavy work. Not much but relaxing and a few tasks. I went beyond some limits without realizing it, well beyond them I think. Oh, I might even get on my bike later today and go for a short spin. Actually this morning would be better. I will think about it.

A bit of reading, a few home tasks, a quiet day. Perhaps the same tomorrow. I might try and organize my thoughts on what I am going to try and get done in the near future. I really enjoy what I call skivvy days, days where high fashion comes in the form of skivvies and a smile. My home is 70 F, and with everything closed up it will only warm a bit more. Actually, 70 F feels almost chilly. Should be a good day, barring disaster from an external source.

Ah, I do remember what the other thing that hit me, while listening to Catholic radio the other day, was. It had to do with item collecting. Something about you can't take it with you. Now, tools and food storage items? I don't mind these at all, if well considered. While I can't take them with me, others can use them. What I need to do is ensure what I buy can be used and have a good long life. I also need to consider things I buy very closely. I think I do, but... Do I? I don't know, that particular program hit me hard. I even think about my vehicle. I could have gone much more inexpensively and bought used. There are problems with used, too, of course. Problems I can't necessarily afford or figure out and repair on my own, problems which are taken care of when buying new. I don't know, I can only say that the notion stuck in my pipe and I am smoking on it.

Have a great day.
