Everybody is so tired these days. Even I've decided a time or two to join The Weasel in "having a little nap." At least you had an excuse. Just the idea of stripping paint from that hydrant makes me want to go lie down a while.

Usually I'm a very light sleeper, but lately things have happened in this house and outside -- and I've slept right through it. Even when I wake up I have to convince myself to actually get up.

If I didn't have The Whistle Stops to do every day, I might just hibernate. It's so tempting. But it will also change in a little while. We just have to hang on. Meanwhile, keep snoring. I know how your wife feels. That's also how I know The Weasel is still alive. Sometimes he sounds like a wood chipper. You two would create quite a commotion.
