listless

Last night was pretty sleepless. During the day I managed to sneak in a two hour nap. Those naps are just destroying my sleep schedule. This kind of reminds me of why I enjoyed drinking during college. It would make me sleepy enough to go to bed when I wanted to. My college experience was not especially taxing and at the end of the day I would have to much energy left over. The same can be said for some days around here on the farm. Oftentimes I am not especially busy during the day and am not tired at the end of the day. This leads to naps during the day and some sleepless nights. I liked teaching or having a regular job because it gave me something to achieve or fulfill my day. I would have done enough by eight and be ready to go to bed. Having to be up and awake early helped also, since I didn't get to sleep in. Waking up and having a purpose was really helpful in achieving something during the day. 

On another note, my flower beds are starting to get a little to weedy. I need to go through and weed out the grasses that are coming up. Some of the flowers are starting to bloom and turn out pretty nice. Some of them are not doing very well, but since this is my first year in this house, some of the flowers I set out are going to be trial and error. I am going to need more time and observation to get a good ideal on what flowers and plants are going to do well in spots. Since I have so many trees around, I get plenty of shade during the evenings. I do have the watering down pretty well, I made a frame that holds down one of the hose rollers so well that I don't have to watch that the box turns over when unrolling the hose.
