Playing Games

So, I'm trying something new again. I put my photos on before I left home this morning and am just now adding text from work while my friend takes her afternoon rest. Looks like I will need to rearrange the photos later... They're not moving for me right now. (Well, not aside from disappearing altogether...)

I don't know if this gray squirrel is the same Mr. or Mrs. Gray who frequented the trees on the west side of the house last winter, but he or she was quite enthralled with our party yesterday afternoon. Too bad I couldn'the invite the poor creature in for a slice of apple pie and a cup of coffee.

It's another gorgeous day and I am attempting to be thankful for my friend's big window, which at the very least allows me to enjoy the sunshine and the now mostly bare trees in the facility courtyard. By the time I leave it will once again be cold and dark.

I've not been sleeping well at night this past week. Even when the body is tired, the mind is all too often unable to rest. Sometimes, even when the mind is tired, sleep is impossible. Of course, if I could, sleep would come easy right now. I don't suppose reading a book will keep me awake... *yawn*
