Sleep didn't come easy last night. I finally just got up and went to the family room and kicked back in my magic chair. Sleep came to me after 03:00 A.M. True to his heart, Charlie left me alone until almost seven, "time to eat." But after feeding the dogs and putting on the coffee, I slept another hour, or so. Speaking of Charlie, he just came in to pester me about going outside again.
Sometimes I wonder, in all that tossing and turning, did I sleep a bit without knowing. Hmmm ... more coffee please.

“Care keeps his watch in every old man’s eye,
And where care lodges, sleep will never lie.”
