No day is so bad it can't be fixed with a nap...

Bearshire (UK)

One of the privileges of getting older is allowing oneself to fall asleep at any hour one feels like.
I will not share with you too many intimate details of my private life, so I will not reveal if I still share my nights with anyone.
Nevertheless I have spent quite a bit of time thinking about the aspects of sleep.
Have you ever noticed that people who snore always fall asleep first?


Yesterday I received an email letter from a kind anonymous lady, who seems to enjoy reading my diary.
She obviously loves literature, although she "reads" books on tape, while I'm terribly old fashioned in that regard and still read old paper books.
I send my greetings to this lady, who will probably read this page of my diary as well.
You see one of the advantages of paper books is that they're not too heavy on your belly and if they make you feel sleepy and they slip away from your paws (sorry, I meant to say "hands") and fall down on the floor, they don't risk too much damage....

Come on, Aunt Violet...you know putting that Academy Award on the mantel would arouse our curiosity. Which one of your loves did you finagle into giving it to you?

Looks like you have some wonderful rare additions to read in that lovely room.

What a lovely room to read your books, Aunt Violet.
I wonder what the opened book is that you were reading before you dozed off?

Aunt Violet, you must have very good eyes! The older I get the harder it is for me to see the print, no matter what eyeglass prescription I have. I like to listen to books on tape and just set the tape player on the table near my bed. No risk of dropping it, although I do have a problem of falling asleep while the tape is playing! I love this cozy room you're in. did you make the quilt that's covering you?

P.S. Love picture of Bearona Lisa over the mantel!
