Awake at 5 a.m. Back to sleep. Awake at 6 a.m. to the sound of that loud chirping that lets you know the battery in your smoke detector is dying. In this case, the new battery I put in the smoke detector last month.
Between this and the garage door opener, I might think the batteries are out to get me. Or I might think that possibly Jerry took out old batteries but then didn't put them in the bag o' batteries we kept around until we got the chance to recycle them? Or maybe they're just too old? Anyway, will go and get more today. In general we use... I use... rechargeables, but I do need 9-volts for the smoke detectors.
Having taken the sleep aid tablets last night, I did keep going back to sleep again and again as I kept waking up this morning - and kept looking at the clock, out of ongoing guilt about not getting up and getting moving bright and early. If I ever get to the point where I feel like I can't bring myself to crawl out of bed, guilt about it might be my saving grace.
Dashboard says it's 59 degrees, with a high today only of 67. Fall is coming. Frightening.
