First, today was good. My neighbor fixed my rear brake light (which would have earned me a big, fat ticket if not repaired) and the day was sunny and bright.
My hellebore, tired of waiting for me, basically pruned itself and looks great. Just needs a little cutting away of the dead leaves.
Here’s the issue I am talking about in the title of this post.
Ever since I was in high school (when the earth was cooling) I have had this annoying problem. About a half hour after lunch, I get really sleepy. I mean really sleepy. When I was working, I would often close my office door and snatch a quick nap. Sometimes that helped, sometimes not. If I don’t get the opportunity to sleep (which I try to avoid doing so as to not mess up my night’s sleep) it will lift by itself. Around 3:30 I start to wake up again. By 4:00 I am back to normal.
Needless to say, this takes a piece out of my day that I would rather not lose. I just live with it. During this time, I would absolutely not drive–no way–. Nor would I attempt anything that needed mental acuity. I might even avoid walking as stumbling on concrete could be bad.
Like I said, I have lived with this for so long, you’d think I’d be used to it by now. It’s just so darned frustrating. What I eat is really good and I don’t eat a large lunch at all.
Go figure.
Pray for our troops.
God bless everybody.
