I know, broken record happening in our house – slept from 5:30am til 8:30am – Mama Bear is not impressed with that. Starting to feel sorry for the perennial drunks out there if this is what it’s like.
We had a lovely day, sunshine, laughs and a nice walk – but, mercy, I feel stoned from lack of sleep. Lack of food, too, as can’t get it down – normally, I’d be delighted – not today. On our walk I was pumped and zipped up a tough hill – neighbor #1 whispers, “Crazy lady looks stoned again and I think she’s losing weight.” Neighbor #2 “Naw, it’s the look of no sleep.” Bless you, as crazy lady completes her lap, man in tow. Did I mention we live in a very hilly neighborhood:)
A friend called around 4pm and offered to sit here so I could go to bed. I declined, declined! Actually, it sounds backwards but I was too tired to think and I looked like a wreck. Later I was telling my sister and she kind of said,”Like what’s with that, you’re not thinking straight – an offer to nap??? and you refused?”
So I emailed and said, “the next time, just come over, I will put a bag over my head and you may sit while I sleep.” Anyway, we are off to Dreamland shortly with a little help from my friend, Charlie Chemical – for one of us.
Hope tomorrow is a much better day and that you get a good nights rest…….
Jean, there is an article in our local paper today about dealing with AD and how hard it is for the caregiver. Promise me that you will take ANY opportunity you can get for someone to be there – so you can rest. No use your getting sick from lack of sleep!!
Monica, I slept. slept, slept!Thanks.
Judy, I honestly was so tired I was weird – to turn down an offer for help.I promise.
