Here I am sitting outside communing with nature, or at least trying too, and I am yawning my head off. I just plain old can't keep my mouth shut. Every time I yawn I get the feeling I am missing something that one of the little creatures are doing. Next to me is one of those lizards with the red sack under his chin and he puffs out that red sack every time I yawn. I shouldn't be tired. After all I didn't get up til almost 10 AM. Yep, I slept in this morning. I feel right now like I need a nap. I guess this will just have to be one of those lazy days.

I have days like that. I woke up early this morning and then after breakfast I fell back to sleep. Not good. I hate that. I would sit outside but every time I do sit in my yard I get bitten alive by mosquitoes. One of my neighbors plants vegetables and has barrels full of rain water. I think that is where those bugs are coming from. I have never seen to many mosquitoes in my life.

@inertia4 I would also guarantee that the extra mosquitoes are coming from their rain barrels.

@HazySue Right. And it is way annoying. I really enjoy sitting out in the yard after dinner. But it is getting crazy.

@inertia4 isn't there another area where they can put the rain barrels, further away from you?

@sofssu funny how that works. You get more rest and feel more tired.

I know why I am tired...not been sleeping a night much. Unfortunately life isn't such for me that I have the privilege of going to sleep when I am tired. I do take a nap, but in no way is it enough to "catch up" on the hours of sleep I am lacking at night.

There's nothing wrong with lazy days - you're retired now remember.

It happens. We need to rest and our body tells us when.

I'm off to Trader Joe's to get some coffee. I had to drink TEA this morning. The humanity. Do you know what kind of lizard you're sharing your day with? Here in CA, we have Western Fence Lizards everywhere.

@TheHorse I have no idea what kind of lizard he is. He is cute though. I can't believe you let yourself run out of coffee.
