Wednesday Night/Thursday morning.

Here I am again wide awake. Went to bed early but just could not get to sleep so thought over what Katie said about staying up to 1 am. She's older than me so if she can do it so can I. I think it's all this chatroom stuff, my mind going over all the yarns. I notice the rest of you must all be in bed now too. Hubby and Tess (our wee dog) are sleeping nicely. Must have been the laudanum I added to his tea. Eva, I hasten to add, the other dog, sleeps in my son's bedroom. It is his dog after all. I know, I know, we are a very strange family. Poor Winnie, the cat, has to make do with her wee house in the garage. I also have a birdcage in the kitchen containing an artificial canary. I have several frogs, real and the garden variety, outside, also some stone birds, pigs, yes, pigs - they may be a bit trashy but I got them cheap in a charity shop. Also, wait for it, a pelican, beautifully coloured. Of course, the usual garden gnomes, 3 wee white ducks which click into each other, they're really spoons, a white dove (not real) and two large ducks sitting in the rockery. I may have more but I cannot remember at 12.15 am. I also have a real baby frog in the greenhouse. I think it likes the water from the hose every day, but my wee granddaughter is terrified of it. Anyway, still not sleepy, so if anyone is out there, talk to me.

Re: . .Wednesday Night/Thursday morning.

Hi there,
Tu whit tu whoo, new light out of an auld moon these nights, serves u right, getting my own back for Canada when u jumped into bed & left me on my own. How do u like them green apples, as Maureen always said. Try saying the Rosary,it is great for insomnia u will b asleep before the last decade.OR try counting all those garden ornaments. Joe is out calling the dog in, beautiful night here, big moon not quite full yet, see for miles. Sheena Alana & Deirdre were all here this evening till 11pm. Sat out in the porch with the candles lit, lovely. S & D r off to La Manga next Tuesday, I would love to go but can,t cheek it on to leave Joe on his own here, anyway it will b too hot there for me, I remember last time, took the shingles, thought it was mosquito bites no sympathy from anyone until I came home & the doctor diagnosed me with them. Now, does being awake strike u as a big problem, I am going to read now for a while, so Goodnight & God bless. Pat
