First night's sleep in the books.  This is going to be fun to track what helps/hinders sleep.  I slept well, but had a very low DEEP SLEEP level -- 23 minutes and it should be a little over 2 hours.  REM sleep was fine so I'm not hitting that stage 4 sleep.  I woke out of deep sleep TWICE to go to the bathroom.

Maybe less water at night?  If that's when I deep sleep, I need to stay asleep.  Deep sleep is RESTORATIVE SLEEP when your body does its best healing.

I'll experiment with CBD gummies and all the sleep stuff.  Love this kind of problem solving. 

Here's what it looks like.  Definitely aware I'm wearing it, but it doesn't bother me at night.  If I use it regularly, I'll stop noticing it soon.

Doing a FUTURE SELF thing today and going to a neighborhood party solo -- seafood boil outside.  She was vague about how big the gathering is, but after texting yesterday, it sounds BIG.  Geez.  FS is making me go though.  I need to be a bit social with the neighborhood.  Most of the people she's invited are okay on my list -- not the super haters.  And some I'm actually friendly with so that's nice.  Orders to bring nothing, so I'll bring flowers in a mason jar (no vase return needed).  Easy.  

BTW, flowers in a jar is a future-me thing.  That feels happy and in line with the philosophy I'm TRYING to live -- less junk food, less alcohol, something that's "me."

Then I have a stretch of glorious, practically nothing days.  I'm happy for it -- especially happy for some morning free stretches.  Last week was a lot of fun, but mornings were pushed.  I like this balance.  I want to spend some morning time in reflection before my birthday in a week.

My credit card was compromised.  First time that's happened to me.  Kind of a pisser since I have the number memorized.  Oh well.  I'm using hubby's until the new one comes this week.  They caught it immediately.  

I'm a bit pushed this morning because I want to get to Trader Joe's early enough to get good flowers.  Event organizers buy in bulk on the weekends and they go early so I will too.  Early bird and such.

Have a great day.  Later gators.
