I must not be getting enough sleep

I'm not to the point of sleep depravation though - not by a long shot. But I'm not getting as much sleep as I did when I was unemployed (Duh!).

I AM getting enough - even by police standards, 6 hours a day (or night) is all you need. I used to take a 1-2 hour afternoon nap which is now obviously a lost luxury - and that made more of a difference than I thought it did. This is the first day of my weekend - my days off being Thursday - Friday, and I slept in til 7AM. That may not sound late to most of you but on a workday I get up at 3:10. I feel good now but apparently I needed 9 hours of sleep to catch up.

Then again, this is the first pair of consecutive days off that I have had since I started the job. maybe everybody catches up on the weekend.

Vines

We've had these vines growing on the side of the house since we moved in. They trash the side of the house, grow through the wall, and are generally ugly.

martes tore out some of them in the past week. It's lot of work. I just tore out 80% of the ones in the remaining front yard and on the side of the garage. Filled up the trash bin and threw a bunch of it over the back wall. Then I gave up, it's too much work.

Fortunately we live in a duplex, and the other side of our house contains people in the landscaping business. I hired them to come over on Halloween (of all days - but that's when they are available) to take the rest of it out for me.
