Connie's Corner

You're getting very sleepy....

My calendar Zen Cat for April says..."Zen Cat contemplating the Healing Beauty of a Single Flower"...Honshin.

I have been so tired lately from getting up at night with Jim that anytime I sit down during the day, I fall asleep. I think Mopsy's catnaps are rubbing off on me. This morning I started back on something I used to do, hoping it will give me some more energy...a squeeze of fresh lemon juice in warm water as soon as I get up. And I'm substituting peppermint tea for coffee thinking the caffeine may be giving me a rebound effect. Oh, oh...tea has caffeine too, huh. Has anyone tried Yerbamate? It's supposed to be a coffee substitute. We'll see. Or then maybe I'm just tired.

We hit 90 degrees on April 1st and have used the ac everyday since, until today, so far. A nice breeze is blowing in my window as I type and sometone nearby is mowing grass. The smell is wonderful.

Jim had labs again today, we are awaiting results. So far the rice milk is really working to lower the potassium and he says he cannot tell the difference between it and skim, which I continue to drink.

Well, I'm beginning to nod off....

until next time...c
