Shame on me!!

I missed the fireworks last nite, and didn't watch the traditional video either. Instead, right after supper, I went in and napped til midnight. It wasn't the kids' fault. Two of them care to remind me the event was starting, and I woke up enough to hear the crashing sounds of celebration across the river. Just craved sleep more than excitement. That is becoming the story of my life. Thanksgiving will be the next to go, then Christmas, then reading. No wonder people just sit in nursing homes with their hands folded in their laps. I thought for sure that when it is my time to be old, I would be sitting there full of interest in whatever book I am reading. What a wake-up vision of the future!! But another nap is starting to sound good right now. I had good intentions of recounting some of the books I enjoyed in my youth, but---yawwwn----.

I definitely am going to use the Notify thingy before quitting, though. I have been reluctant to notify anyone that I have updated. Most of what I write is such inconsequential drivel that I feel ashamed to call attention to it.
