Out On The Pike Sunday, August 24, 2014. At 06:13 this morning it had hit 70f/21c, no fog this morning but we still have cloudy skies. There is no wind moving and the humidity is close to maxing out. The dew is so thick and wet on the ground that you would swear it has been raining. It is not starting out to be a comfortable day. I have no idea how hot it is supposed to be today. It was a four way combo team that made me get out of bed this morning. I was half awake anyway. Mary got up for a minute, two cats were dancing on my legs and feet. Ghost and Lancelot were the culprits and then Cookie joined in. Yes, that would have done it and it did. My sleep pattern has changed. We are going to bed at the regular time and read until we decided to hit the pillows. That is a change for us but we have been doing it for a while. Then the C-PAP machine for me. When I do sleep Ive been sleeping hard but I still have either weird or terrifying dreams. At least I didnt the double whammy last night. I have lived with chronic insomnia since 1970 and that changed within this year. It does have its effects on me like the lunar cycles of the moon on the tide it sometimes draws me in again. It will sound incredible wrong to say this but sometimes I miss it. There was something about being the ghost that haunted the house that appealed to me. After all these years it is very delightful to be able to sleep and sleep hard. Cookie has been out and Tinker will wait for Mary. The cats have been fed. My blood sugar is fine, thank you, and I have my first cup of coffee of the day and it is nearly gone. Its good to be alive and it is one of the many things that I have to be thankful for this morning. Lets see, what do we have planned for the day? Oh yes, I remember, absolutely nothing. We need to get some clothes washed. I would like to use the old Maytag wringer washer out on the street side porch but I dont know if it is going to rain today or not. Since I want to wash clothes and hang them outside I would imagine that is exactly what will happen. Oh joy. Of course there is the routine but we did a good job of that yesterday and doesnt really need it. Therefore I believe this to truly be a day of rest. Yesterday during the day we went visiting and had a good time with some crazy people so we fit right in. In fact weve become like family to each other and that is a very good thing for us. We need someone friends that are close by. Dont get me wrong, Mary and I have many friends but they are all over the place and all over the world. That is another thing to for me to be thankful. Many have done, and stood by for us. In turn we have returned that to others and the universe. Karma can be exceptionally unpleasant. We are still reading the same books. Weve been lacking in our reading because we have been watching Dr. Who awaiting the appearance of the so called 12th Dr. Technically he is the 15th. It was an nice kick off to season eight and Im going to like this new Dr. played by Peter Capaldi. Pronounce that Ka-pal-di please, not Ka-paul-di. If you missed it got to EZTV on the net and download it there. If you are the least bit Whovian you need to see it. Where will music got today? Well find out. Ive got an opening song in mind and Ill see what other memories will get triggered in my impossibly messed up brain of mine and and see what issues forth. That could be a disaster, but that is where Im going. Ive made up my mind and Im sticking to it. Where did that come from? Ive made up my mind. How do you make up your mine? Its not like putting sheets on the bed. You cant reach into your head and adjust anything but that would have been a nice feature to our nature. Just imagine if our parents had the ability to decide what features we would have been born with. You know, like selecting accessories or add ons for your car. Ill bet some of us would be messed up a lot worse that we all ready are! But our parents did not have that option and there is one more thing which to be thankful. So, this is my stop up ahead and Im going to jump off of this imaginary trolley and stroll over to the coffee machine for another hot cup of the brew of the gods. Once upon a time coffee was only for royalty. That would have sucked large if I had lived then and was a peasant. One more thing to be thankful for. May all of you have a super swell wonderful day! May the very best of bright blessings be yours today! I love you all, yes, even you, the grouchy one in the background over there! Wait, is that a mirror? I dont think so. What have you got to be thankful for this morning? Post a comment and let me know. May your God, Goddess, or gods walk with you today. namaste
