LOL… well, more and more I’ve been finding that I’m really getting “brain dead” by midafternoon… and so later afternoons and evenings are pretty much a total loss for any thinking type activities I’d like to do…
I’ve been trying to get exercise and fresh air (like walking to and from work) and that does help… but this morning I read the results of a study that said a nap of ½ to 1 ½ hours mid-day makes a big difference. So I slept from noon to about 1:30 this afternoon… and then topped it off with a healthy sandwich (whole grain bread, field greens, meat, cheese) … and a pleasant conversation with one of my beautiful daughters!
So we shall see how long and well my brain functions for the rest of the day. (It was really getting groggy by noon… of course I was up before 4:30 am and have done a lot of “thinking” stuff today!) Well, now I am feeling quite excellent ? So we’ll see how long that lasts! Oh yes, I also opened the front and back doors and let the lovely fresh spring air blow through the house… and I’m sitting writing this, right now, to the tune of birds singing in the trees!
