Sleep Tight


Retirement...When I mentioned that one of the good things about retirement was reading whenever I want to I didn’t mean that it should be 3 a.m.!  Honestly, there must be something in the air at that time because I ALWAYS see some part of the 3 a.m. hour on my clock. Is it the beginning or end of my REM sleep? Is it those flower fairies or the tooth fairy just checking in? No matter anymore, because I have a multitude of things to do at that hour thanks to technology. I can listen to a lovely romance by Nora Roberts or check my email on my phone, read a book on Kindle, watch a movie or tv show on either one or play words with friends or do a crossword puzzle or even play my hidden object games on kindle. (I love them! As a kid I was an avid hidden object finder in my Highlights magazines.) But for now, at the bewitching hour of 3 a.m., I put on my ear buds, listen to soothing music and dream about the days ahead, the new experiences, the new people and old friends I might meet up with, all the while creating new memories with my husband.

Ahhhh nite nite.
