NEW (happy) UPDATE:
Well, the last several days have been absolutely been wonderful in spite of the fact that I have been having lots of trouble getting a good undisturbed and continuous sleep at night. Once I go to bed, I roll around for the longest time before I drift off to sleep, then frequently in the late night and very early morning hours I am rolling around in bed wide awake and can not get back to sleep. Finally, as I have done this last many mornings I just get up at some ungodly hour like 4:00AM and do some things around my house, put on a pot of coffee, and just stay busy until I leave for work, usually just before 7:00AM.
I talked to my local GP doctor about it and was prescribed some sleeping pills but I didn't pick up the prescription, I am always hearing bad things about sleeping pills and I don't want them so I will just deal with my sleep issues the best I can and hope that things will improve.... Us girls need our beauty sleep.
On Wednesday I had a good early day at my office... that morning as I posted in my previous update, I saw my shy Suitor #3 at the coffee shop as I was getting my take-out espresso before I opened my office. He was having breakfast with a business friend of his and he waved me toward his table and introduced me as "his most beautiful woman friend in town".... well, that was certainly wonderful to my ears!!! I had a very good morning at my office, lots of work but quite manageable, as had planned I closed early and went to my scheduled gym outing with my girl group including (Dental Hygeinist)Suitor #4 and had a very tough workout, gotta keep in shape, you know. Of the course the creepy gym rat Suitor #2 was there but I stayed well out of his way.
I hesitate to post this sweaty selfie of myself before I went into the shower but here goes.
Yesterday, Thursday was a happy day too. I got to work early as usual, went to get my take-out espresso and the barista gave me my regular espresso but this time with a "pink" lid... usually they are White lids. I asked her why I got a pink lid when I was seeing all the other coffee orders go out with white lids. Well, she told me that I was to always get pink lids from now on. Hmmm, was that the owners recommendation? Was my Suitor #3 behind that development since he is the first one to bring me an espresso to my office with a Pink lid and some chocolate chip cookies? (see one of my earlier posts and the picture that I put on my thread. Or, was the Barista now a Suitor? Hmm, crazy developments in the romance of Alaskan Danielle!!! I will eventually write about what I find out.
Yesterday and last night was cold. I woke up very early to see that it was snowing, the temp was like 24 or 25 deg F and later in the day it finally got up into the low 40's. I got home and turned on my propane fireplace stove and changed into my sweats and after dinner I curled up on my comfy chair in front of the fireplace with a good book and with my laptop. I am so jealous of many of you when I see your posted pictures of you wearing summer clothes, sunglasses, etc and you are outside in obviously sunny and warm weather, but my time will come, then I will be outside hiking and doing fun warmer activities... and I will keep you updated with pictures of course.
So, as I get ready to curtail this update, I am doing well except for not getting my beauty sleep, my business is keeping me busy, it's just 10:00AM here and I about to get another coffee.
Bye for now... I will keep this thread updated as events dictate.
Hugs and well wishes to all,
Danielle
