Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
I didn’t sleep very well last night, I don’t know why but the shut eye evaded me for hours. Everybody has their own way of dealing with insomnia. It has to be very annoying for those who suffer from it regularly. Thankfully that is not the case with me, not very often anyway. And when it does I just lie there and resign myself to the fact that this is it for me till the morning. Reading a little often helps or a glance at Facebook. The loss of sleep leaves you drowsy and not in full command of your plans for the new day. But with a little effort I’ll get by. It’s a lively day outside. There is a fresh breeze with a brightness without direct sunshine and the flowers and rose trees are dancing to the tune of the birds. Enough to spur anybody out of a lazy mood.
