Who Else Can't Sleep ?
It Is Too Early To Get Up
My body is working against me
I ask myself what did I do ?
I went to bed the usual time
My wife tossed and turned
Her knee was bothering her
She couldn't get comfortable
Maybe I am having sympathy pains
For my wife
In my mind I am thinking if she can't sleep
Neither should I
Well going to bed I didn't think that way
I rubbed her back and scratched her head to take her mind off of it
I always like that when I am not feeling good
Who knows what goes on in the subconscious level
I am just throwing it out there
The weather has been cooler in general
Even so I still put on the ceiling fan
Just to feel that breeze
Our cat Charlotte also felt left out
So when I finally did dose off
She roamed across our bureau and started to cause havoc
Knocking things over
As to say what about me?
I say get down
She won't listen
So I physically have to get up
She runs to the kitchen
She has food
I top her dish off
She is spoiled
She likes to have afull dish not just a quarter full of her tiny little dry morsels
Well there you have it
It just turned 6:30 A.M.
I went to bed at 2:00 A.M.
Four and a half hours doesn't cut the mustard
So I am going to give it the college try
Close one eye
Then close the other
Think amazing good thoughts
Today we are heading to the Topsfield Fair
The weather is looking nice
I haven't been there for seven years
Usually when the fair comes to town
The weather is all crappy
We are going to meet up with some dear friends
Who we keep in touch with but don't get to see to often
They have two wonderful kids who just graduated last year
Now they are both venturing in their own fields of interest
Their daughter still living at home
Their son wanted to live in Vermont
I like to see when children get old enough to be adults
Making big decisions and hopefully they remember what their parents tried to teach them
Do the right thing
Stay out of trouble
We are proud of you
We are here for you
We love you
You have to test the waters
I remember doing the same at your age
You have a lot of responsibilities
We will be watching you from a distance
Have a good day and make your life something special
Be all you can be
When faced with challenges don't blame the world around you
Look for solutions that you have the ability to figure out
Find something good in every day
Let the bad pass
There will be many days with a weird combination of both
May you see through the rough patches
We all have to work
It doesn't mean we can't have a lot of fun along the way
Bringing the power of love into our life
My wife just got up
She went to the t.v.
She couldn't sleep either
I decided to go back and crawl in between the sheets
Hoping wonderful dreams start to flow
Good night or is it good morning
I wish for you a nice day
One that will repeat the things that you love
At the same time create thoughts of something new
One more day of discovery
Rise and shine little ones
Off to school you go
I remember those times vividly
I am glad those years are done
They were good but I wouldn't want to do over
