I was thrilled this morning when I woke up, realized it was after 4:30 (my kitchen under cabinet lighting, which is automated, was on), and then checked the time to discover it was 5:11 AM! For the past week, I've been lucky if I could sleep past 4 AM — PST or PDT. To sleep until after 5 AM, is like sleeping in for me. I love it.
I'm trying to figure out what I did yesterday to be able to get a solid eight hours of #sleep. 🤔

I was thrilled this morning when I woke up, and saw the clock read 08:38.
It meant I had been able to get off to sleep again after a night suffering intermittent episodes of pins and needles or pains in my arms.
(To make a change I'll make this short to avoid your jealousy about my 1,000 character toot allowance! Where's the evil grin emoji when you need it!)

My excuse is that by the time we put the #lightsout at night it's usually around 02:00 and then I fall #asleep to the sounds of an #audiobook or my nephew's #radioshow on #catch-up.
I call it keeping #musician's hours. #Gigs never finish that early and then you have to travel home.
The dear old #NHS (#NationalHealthService) has finally decided after a year or so on a waiting list to out source it's #Neurology #Appointments. I'm hoping that will get to the bottom of the problem, even if it does mean diagnosis of something similar to my father, who from around my age progressed through #walkingframe to #wheelchair as the strength disappeared from his legs.
@gregc As long as you get enough sleep to feel rested, it doesn’t really matter what the hours are. I’d love to wake up daily between 5 and 6 AM — I’m a morning person — and get to sleep around 10 PM.
Good luck getting your appointment and a diagnosis so you can address the root of the problem.
I’m going to try to walk 1-2 miles every afternoon and, if I get motivated enough, join a pickleball team. I need to get back in shape before I get any older!
