It's been raining all day, at times heavily. Hail was predicted but never arrived. We put the cars in the garage anyway. It's chilly and damp outside and in.
It's 3:00 am, and I'm not in bed. I've been waking at this time pretty much every day for months. I get up and move to the living room and read a book, or read the computer, until I feel sleepy enough to go back to bed. I'm usually up for a couple of hours. It seems to be an age related phenomenon. The older you get the less you sleep at night. Of course, I frequently nap during the day.
Speaking of getting old, my birthday is in 2 days. I'll be 76 years old. I'm feeling old for the first time. I'm relegating myself to being an old man. I go to strength training at the gym twice a week because I want to be able to get up off the floor if I fall.
I'm also counting the days that I have left on this plane. Most of my music heroes have past away, most of my family is gone. I figure I have 10 good years left. After that, who knows, but I could be gone any time now.
Enough depressing talk for one night.
