OK, OK, I finally get it! I've been doing my best to get enough night time sleep. 9 hours seems to be required. Last night I only got 5-½. The _____ity_____ VA woke me up with a call-back at 5:30AM for a matter about payment for my sister. I thought I wouldn't get another chance to get their counsel, so I got up. Told myself I would go back to bed, but was too stimulated by the conversation to consider bed again.
Now I have just returned from my walk. Same prep as other days with fresh veggie juice, but with far less physical ease. Up the steep hill from Lakeside to SP Way from the bottom of 107th (3 blocks). The first one was pretty OK, but the second two had me panting and resting often. Everything else should have been easy, but it was a slog instead of the pleasure it has been for the last several days. . The last 2 blocks had me taking homeopathic Arnica for bilateral hip pain. It did help, but I was almost home before my joints freed up for longer steps.
The difference between today and other days is 3.5 hour sleep deficit. In addition to the pain (which is gone) I am now getting sleepy, but there is still a whole day's worth of work to do.
OK body: lesson learned! I will give you more night time sleep; I promise.
