…everyone from your teach-no, not that, that’s a song by Motley Crue.

You ever have one of those days where you’re unsettled and restless?

You just can’t sit and focus?

Maybe you try to watch a movie but even before the universal satellite system locks the aiming stars around the mountain so the tree can get struck by lightening you turn off the movie and tv. You wander into the kitchen to see if maybe what you really wanted was a cup of coffee and a piece of cheese cake. The coffee(decaf, I got enough problems) was ok, but after one bite, the dessert went buh-bye😀have a nice day thanks for trying👋

How do you get yourself settled?

Yes, they did the original, but Mötley Crüe recorded a cover that was a hit, too.

Yes, I have several of those days. I call them “weekdays”.

I find it’s helpful to keep something around the homestead that needs to be hammered into smaller bits and discarded.

I try to go for a walk, usually to someplace I haven’t been. Sometimes, it’s been a walk around a lake or river. I visited restaurant warehouses and stores, a farm implement store (it was a slow day, they were happy to have an audience).

These days my walking is limited due to age and injury, but I still try to physically move. Even if it is only to visit the Relax the Back store and pretend I am buying a chair that is comfortable.

I take a lot of naps.

If I can’t sleep, I re-read murder mysteries. Often, Nero Wolfe or Bosch.

Good luck.
