Insomnia on Steroids!

I just could not sleep last night. It was crazy hot to start with. Then there was not one or two but a whole flipping family of mosquitoes. They do not like Mike. They love love love me. I was slapping and hitting out to try to swat them without success. Mike slept on. Midnight became 1am. At 1-16am a motorbike roared through the intersection. 1-30am, I reprimanded myself for not keeping the smile going!

1-45am – I must not have after dinner coffee. How did I get back into that bad habit? I KNOW that it keeps me awake. Never again!

2am – SLEEP!!!

Aaaah!

6-15am – Wake up.

I had 4 hours sleep.

Today has been a wonderful day!

I had gym and only one appointment. For the rest of the day, I felt like the cat. Truffles knows how to take it easy. I curled up on the bed and I went to sleep. This is a winter photo:

This is more like today:

And this:

Now I feel great!

#535 of my 1000 thanks is that the insomnia only lasted until 2am! 😀 Yay!

Gym was the fitness test first which lasted 9m 17s and declared I was ‘fairly’ fit. Then I walked for 15 minutes, after which I did the 30 minute Gridfit session, because it’s Gridfit Friday. That was good. It doesn’t matter how slow you go, just don’t stop!

Now I’m off to the Mall to buy milk and insect repellent!

Ephesians 2:10

For we are God’s masterpiece, He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago.

These are the days.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you!

In His Grip,
