So the thing is the thing, now. Now the thing is I stay up in the wee hours. 2 years ago, the thing was to go to bed at dark, rising before dawn in my rv. The thing changes. I rise late morning which is the thing now. I have resisted but it has persisted to be the thing now. I am leaning into it finally and itโ€™s really a good thing. Things change, often๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚

Wonderful song pickโ€ฆ gives me ALL the nostalgia of my childhood listening to Gordon Lightfoot et al.

One of the most uncomfy aspects of aging is realizing youโ€™re not into The Thing anymore, so much so that you donโ€™t recognize your younger self. They donโ€™t prepare you for that!

It's true! The positive side is that we old people tend to feel more comfortable being into *our* thing, no matter how odd or uncool it may be.

Margaret Thatcher may have got by on very little sleep but she also got Alzheimer's in later life and was a shadow of her former self. I wonder if the lack of sleep contributed towards that?

Who knows! It's a hypothesis I'm not interested in personally testing. I like my sleep.
