In our current life of ups and downs this day is a truly strange one, at least, not one that I would have expected based on how Cheryl slept last night. She seemed to be awake most of the time. She was a little fidgety when she went to bed at 11 pm.

I sat up for a bit to read and when I came to bed a few minutes later she was, of course, awake although she did not talk to me. She fidgeted and eventually I fell asleep. I cannot explain how I know she was awake most of the night but she was awake every time I chased my bladder to the bathroom overnight.

Usually if she sleeps poorly she is physically unable to move easily the next day. But that is not true today. She is moving much like her 60 year old self which is better that her yesterday self. What happened?

It is a strange day. She got herself up with no help from me. This is very unusual of late.

Maybe it is my imagination. I did not sleep well and I think I am grumpy for it. The sun is shining brightly in Ohio. Humbug.

The image is an old Calvin and Hobbs comic if you viewed this on a computer. Why is life not fair in our favor? There is no answer to that question.

Naturally the other Cheryl has posted about sleep on her blog.

And Carpe Diem.

Update: She has been hallucinating people on and off today as well as telling me about strange happenings in our condo parking lot (construction) and how busy the restroom at Perkin’s was with some guy changing his baby. (I hope she sleeps better tonight.)
