The Very Sleepy Day

It's been a terribly sleepy weekend. I don't nap on a regular basis, but both Saturday and Sunday found me asleep on the couch, and not just a light sleep. It was a deep, deep slumber from which I awoke groggy and disoriented. If truth be told, I took two naps yesterday and didn't have a problem sleeping at night either. (It's scaring the Cabinet Maker... but it happens every year.)

Yesterday, between naps, we took a ride out to the Chimney Bluffs to deliver a set of sliding glass doors. I took my camera along in case I should spot anything fascinating.

An old hornet's nest. I walked right past without seeing it the first time. They're pretty interesting to look at when you know the hornets aren't lurking nearby.


And a tiny nest on the ground near an evergreen tree. See the teeny, tiny pine cones?

      I guess I do need the sleep otherwise I'd have been awake all night.
      I hope you find the Lake House in order with no uninvited tenants.

    I have the gift of sleep. I enjoy naps too, but seldom take one. On occasion I crash and sleep for hours.

    Your photography is lovely....would love to visit there.

      And I would love to have you.
      The Cabinet Maker has asked if I want to visit you again...

    I adore that sweet, small nest. I find them on occasion. I like to nap, but it does mess with my sleep pattern, so I don't do it much!

      I was tempted to take the sweet, small nest home, but in the end I left it there in the grass to be discovered by something or someone else.

    I LOVE a nap. I get my big Eddie Bauer down blanket, sit in my big Lazy Boy chair lean back and conk out. Sometimes for just half an hour, but sometimes longer. It never interferes with my nighttime sleep. zzzzzzzzz

    I always enjoy your photos Martha. You certainly have an eye for getting interesting ones. A talent I think.

      I love a nap when my schedule allows, or if I'm so tired I can't hold my head up or keep my eyes open.

      Thank you, Marilyn. I do love capturing what catches my eye. And I love to share.
