Eight Is Not Enough

Wednesday, January 22, 2025

Mission partly accomplished.  I got eight hours of sleep last night.  Eight plus -- I'm not counting the dozing in the recliner after dinner.  I should have taken out my contacts so that I could sleep with impunity, but the tryptophan definitely had me snoozing.  Went to bed just after eleven and slept until 7:15.

But.

Sleep grade is only a B and that might be generous, because I was still very, very tired this morning.  I was very slow getting moving.  Fine once I did, but getting the engine turned over was a major problem.  I do not know why because everything else was a positive, eight hours, no significant wakeups, no major sinus issues, none of that stuff.  Just tired.  Scale didn't move at all, not assigning anything to that.

Anyway, we're halfway through the week and today should be the last day of the truly Arctic stuff.  So it's not all bad.  Going to try for eight again tonight.

Breakfast:  3 strips CF cherrywood bacon, coffee

 Standard.

Lunch:  Home tacos (this time + guac)

Also standard.

Dinner:  Home cracker crust pizza w pepperoni, mushrooms and jalapenos, 12 oz All Day IPA

I cannot believe I failed to take a photo.  I had my phone.  I was sure I had taken one before I cut it, but nope.  Argh.  It was very tasty.  A little bigger than my standard cracker crust.  This was an audible prompted by living in a 'hood with a lot of pizza joints scenting the air.  I again was not ready to be done eating when it was gone, but my brain is catching up with my stomach as I type this, thank goodness I have nothing snackable handy.

Expect to have a glass of chocolate milk later.

Exercise:  Nope.  Hoping tomorrow is more conducive to being out and about, it's horrible again today.
