Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

Question of the week, 2-8-16
What do you enjoy most, going to sleep or waking up?
Cathy, I love going to sleep so a refreshing morning will come sooner. It's like the night before Christmas, anxious for the new day. Glad you like the pictures. Day 8 is posted now for today.
I wish I could get into bed and fall asleep and wake up feeling refreshed. It is just as hard for me to wake up as it is to fall asleep and I never accomplish much in the early morning but the drinking of coffee.
This may sound weird, but I don't like doing either. Takes me forever and a month to drop off and after 25 years, I loathe getting up sans alarm clock at 4a every morning.
I fall asleep easily enough, but I have trouble staying asleep. I don't let insomnia bother me though, I use the time to read, write, watch cable, surf the net. I'm usually up by 5am without an alarm clock, although last two days I've overslept past 6am. I live with a sleep deficit until it catches up to me and then I sleep.
I'm not a fan of going to sleep, as I tend to know that I'll be asleep for a few hours then wake up. Whether I get back to sleep again or not depends on my mind and whether I can clear it enough to doze off again. I don't mind waking up if it's a sensible time in the morning like 7.00am.
Going to sleep. If only I could stay that way.
ReplyDeleteWaking up most definitely! There'll be a time coming when you'll be a long time sleeping!
ReplyDeleteLoving your 'paintings'. Originals as only you can do :)
E.C. I sometimes have to awaken during the night to let Slim out. She is a watchdog 24/7 keeping me safe.

ReplyDeleteI am not a morning person. Nope. Not at all. I think it is a cruel joke that I have to be up at 6:00 every morning.
ReplyDeleteGoing to sleep!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy both, especially if there is a cool vivid dream in the middle. I am a morning person for sure.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind waking up but I enjoy turning over & snoozing! What I don't like is getting up.

ReplyDeleteGoing to sleep but I'm working on it as I feel it is part of the bereavement cycle.
ReplyDeleteBoth!!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying the faces here :-)
