Two days vanished, there. Part of it is that my body insists on sleeping until 3 or 4 p.m., and part of it was that on the 13th, I got to the workbench and was too happy there to leave in time to post, and then I lost the notion of posting. Lost it in the fog. No, I don't have Long Covid; I have my own witch's brew of brain fog and related fun courtesy of fibromyalgia, ADHD, C-PTSD, and being a stroke survivor. Plus maybe the six decades of wear and tear on the organism has something to do with it too. In any case, I didn't write anything down here.
The time at the workbench on the 13th really was good. A piece that got inspired by a photograph of a flower got almost done, and I worked on selecting some opals for a Thing that Needs Doing.
Today, then, was a combo of silly body foolishness and continuing recuperation, plus repeatedly checking on whether a thing I need is going to work out. Plus more silly body foolishness. And now, which I am still counting as the 14th because I have not gone to bed yet, I am about to start an experiment.
For the rest of the month, I am going to sleep when I am sleepy and work when I am not sleepy. No more wrenching my sleep schedule around to try to get it to match some notion of ideal. I will have to set alarms for meetings and so forth. And I need to order that bedthumper alarm thing ASAP.
[fx: a cricket considers chirping. Time passes.]
OK, bedthumper alarm ordered. We shall see if it works on someone with my level of hearing. (I am moderately hearing impaired according to the audiology people who measured me. Haven't had it checked lately, but I mostly still can't hear the same stuff I usually can't hear.)
OK, where were we? So many things to do, and not enough good wake time and good sleep time, so we will see if this experiment is better or worse.
How's your sleep lately?
