It is a perfect day. Warm, sunny, breezy, and not too humid.
I'm happy. Happy feels good. Feeling good feels good.
My big plan for today was to do laundry, but I did that last night because I was bored with myself so now I have nothing to do today. All through the end of the school year whenever I was asked what I was going to do over the summer, I jokingly said I was going to park my ass in a chair and read. Little did I know then. I guess the lesson is to be careful what you wish for because I've read so many books this summer that I kind of can't remember them all. Good thing I've kept a list.
I thought I would take a nap, it still surprises me how sudden the sleepiness creeps over me. No chance of fighting it, I simply have to lie down. Just drifting, in that place of perfect peace and relaxation, I was awakened. Because I completely missed the nap, the weariness kept building and building until I had an almost complete meltdown at about 5:30. Then I took a nap.
It was a perfect nap. Naps revitalize me. For a couple of minutes, I worried that my evening nap would keep me up tonight, but the evening has cooled down so beautifully that I don't think that will be a problem. If it does turn into a problem, I'll nap all night.
What if this is as good as it gets?

Yeah the napping thing is new for me too. I'd been running on about 6 hours of sleep a night for quite a while. Now I sleep more than 8 and nearly 10 when my aches & pains let me. And I STILL need a nap. I've stopped fighting them though. I want to get better so I can get back to work soon.
I hope I can figure out this whole nap thing before school goes back... I don't know how I would schedule a rest break into the day...
