Wed 3 Aug

Fell asleep at the usual time last night with no problem, then woke in about 3 hours to go to the bathroom. After stumbling sleepily to the bathroom and back, I fell back in bed and couldn't fall back to sleep. This is very unusual for me. I took some ibuprofen which did help to relax the suddenly tighter muscles, but got up and went down to the couch for awhile in an effort to change the mental tape. Finally dozed off about an hour before the alarm back in my own bed. Went in to the bathroom to get ready for exercise and was dizzy, so decided to go back to bed for another hour of hopefully healing rest. It did seem to do some good as I was able to rest again and feel better now. It remains to be seen if I am tired later today.

My iPhone was out of commission for a couple of days, not receiving any signal. Helped to update the software. Still don't know what the original problem was, but as long as it works again, I really don't care.

Don't waste money trying Nairn's Oatcake Crackers. Similar to cardboard. Nothing like the oatcake crackers at Brennan's.

Wow, did the exhaustion hit mid- to late afternoon. By the time I got home, I just wanted to nap, but didn't happen. Chris Gaedtke was selling fresh-picked blueberries in Ral and Mary's front yard so I walked over to get some, then started the veggies roasting for supper. Just laid down and Geoff and Michele returned, so visited with them and then started the rest of supper. Dad had gotten fresh corn and Ski's brats and I made homemade hot fudge for cherry sundaes for dessert. By the time supper was done, they went for a little walk and I went to bed. Sweet sleep!
