I made it to 16:00. And a bit? I know I made it over that hour, else I can't remember. I wasn't trying to make it that late, I just... couldn't get to bed until I did get to bed. Sleep was so very tight, but good. What is odd is, sleeping on the floor? Beside my back almost never hurting (unless I use if while working), I also don't end up with parts going to sleep. I don't sleep on an arm or leg or else wrong.
I think it is because the arrangement isn't comfortable. Or so comfortable that laying in the same spot, for very long, is possible. Odd how that works out. Now, the price is that shoulder joints get a bit abused, always seem to have a crick in them. But... a minor one, definitely compared to even having limbs be asleep a few times a week.
As for the cramps I was so used to? Legs, usually. Keeping my legs warmer has fixed that. If my body is cold, putting on heavier pj bottoms while I sleep works. Though, usually, just setting the blankets correctly works most of the time.
Now, getting used to sleeping on the floor, this time, took many months of agony. I was just about to give up, after six to eight months of suffering through, when it finally clicked. I think what helped was when I was able to work again, and I worked hard for a few weeks or month. Going to bed tired, so that my body just sorted it out.
Anyway... up. For what good that is doing me lately. Not very able. Tired to the point of crashing most nights as I go to bed. And, yet, not sleeping all that long? I am only sleeping around six hours a night. And, crashing into bed when I do finally get there. Irritating, annoying, bothersome. But... I have had worse.
Today? The last of the dishes... A shower sometime or other... Roasting the pork butt roast and chicken? I hope. Oh, though I may make a custard for breakfast. I have enough milk and eggs, I think. And I have enough artificial sweetener. I think I even have nutmeg, whole, with a scraper. I am hoping to get to the wood pile today. If it is warm enough, I may water the lawn one last time, if I can get the wood pile out of the way, clean up that area, and mow it with the rider. Today, or tomorrow. Then put the sprinkler and hoses up.
Sassy has been fed. Her litter box was empty from clearing it at bedtime. I should get her some water, fresh. But, other than that, the old girl is having a good life. I sure enjoy her company. Am still thinking about getting another cat. For... both of us. I had thought about a dog, but that just won't work. Too needy. Later.
