Awesome!

Christmas morning, about 1AM, several years ago, our front doorbell rang. Got up, pistol in hand, went to door......nobody in sight. Did a check around, and couldn't see anything. and since we live out in the boonies, I was of course a little concerned. Anyway, went back to bed and all was quiet until about 7, and doorbell rang again. This time I knew no one was there, and when it went off again a few hours later, I knew the culprit was a faulty doorbell.

I do have a driveway alarm, and I can't hear it at night, but wifey can. She was always waking me up and telling me that it was going off, yet we never saw anything. Put a trail camera up, and got lots of pictures of deer, coyotes, and other such critters.

Up every morning by 5am, can't sleep much anymore. Last night's big winter storm didn't pan out, we got a lot of rain but not all of the snow that was predicted. The roads are probably iced up pretty well, at least we didn't lose power. Let the dogs out for their morning business and for breakfast made fried potatoes and onions with polish sausage cut up plus good doses of garlic and black pepper. Trying not to make too much noise, everyone else is asleep. Once it gets light out, I'll probably work on getting some wood to the house and running the woodstove all day, mama likes it.

Worst coyote calling here that I've experienced. Weather has been warm, which isn't helping. Maybe the breeding season will pick things up in a few weeks.

i was up at 4am. combination of bad back, having to pee a few times during the night, and my mind gets active, ,can't shut it down.
I don't ever remember sleeping past about 5:30am tho.
tend to go to bed more and more as soon as it gets dark.

Woke up at 3:15 this morning. My usual time is about 4:30

I typically get about 6 hours of sleep per night. Don't recall when I last slept 8 hours. Last night, I slept just under 5 hours

It has been reported that President Trump sleeps about 4 hours a night.

With the schedule he keeps and the things he has accomplished, I would bet it's even less than that.


Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

No set schedule since retirement which has basically destroyed my chances of a good nights sleep. 2-4 hours one day and then knock off 8-10 the next
