Awake

Most people like to sleep in on a Saturday but the morning after chemo has me wide awake at 3:00 a.m. I feel fine but the meds coursing through my veins make my heart beat faster, telling my brain and lungs that I am alert and ready to wash the car!

So, I read the news, emails, Facebook, and daily devotions while even the cats tell me to turn off the lights and be quiet. The clinking of my spoon in the cereal bowl arouses Boo Boo who begs for milk. No, go to sleep. This upcoming rainy day will be perfect for taking a nap or two.

Shadow

I’ll pick up where I left off reading David Fairchild’s tales of plant exploration in the early 1900’s.
