It’s not often I have a lie in bed in the mornings but this morning was an exception. Usually I take four or five hours sleep each night and it seems as though it doesn’t really matter when I go to sleep but I wake up four to five hours later. Last night was no exception. I went to sleep some time after one in the morning and awoke at six twenty, just five hours later. I got up and went to the toilet as I always do then went back to bed and had another three hours sleep. After that I just lay there thinking about different things and not wanting to get up. I did of course and it was almost noon when I got downstairs. During my working week I always arise at seven even if I’ve nothing scheduled. I have to be ready just in case. It is nice to be able to have that extra lie in bed once in a while without being disturbed. Usually somebody will phone me and break the solitude.
I think we can be too demanding of ourselves sometimes and we should take these moments when the opportunity arises.
I’ve nothing planned for this weekend but I’ll be ready and relaxed for any eventuallity.
