Its the middle of the night, and I'm awake. But I have my snake light -- a little LED that plugs into one of the USB ports. I was trying to type the other day and could NOT see the keyboard, when suddenly I thought of my daughter's GameBoy, for which she HAD to have a snake light, once (does she use it? Does she even know where it is, or even MIGHT be?), and I thought Aha, I have one of those...works pretty well.
Around 830, I got really sleepy. I crashed, with the result that at 10, I was wide awake. Didn't help that the room was warm, and my feet were really warm (they do that; one of the nice things about our marriage is that my wife's feet get cold; sometimes in the middle of the night, I'll warm her feet, or she'll cool mine down). I finally got up, had something to drink, ate a couple of Ritz crackers, and came back to bed. The room's cool, too, which helps.
Now I've been websurfing for about an hour, and I'm starting to get a little sleepy.
So let's see....
Thanks for stopping by my site! Yeah, I think my mom missed singing to me when I hit 14 too. I think she did it one more time after that. (hence, the "corny, mom" feeling) She's no longer with me, so ALL those memories are precious and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI miss my mom singing to me, too.
Long after any teen-angst and walking her down the isle someday, she is going to remember those precious moments of you singing to her and her heart will smile.
