My sleeping game is a bit off, even more so the last week. I sleep two or three hours, then awaken. I'm wide awake. Even after an hour or two up, I still may not be sleepy.

did a short ride with the wife. I didnt realize how tired from work she was and kind of pushed her to go. It was the coldest ride yet for her and I didnt know it but the face warmer was fogging her glasses. Needless to say it didnt last long.
Talked to her afterwards, discovered the glasses fogging thing, and she was having trouble breathing. I forgot how hard it was for me to breath through the mask last year when I first got one, and the cold air burning the lungs.
Tomorrow I am taking her to the cap trail (mup) so I am hoping in the sunlight things will be a little better.
Cleat position is good now, but when it comes unclipping I think its just gunna come down to suck it up butter cup. Its not insanely hard to get my foot out, its just a new feeling compared to my worn out cleats and I cant seem to anticipate the force required. I am sure it will get better with time.

Ugh. I can't say for you, but usually sleeping problems are due to too many things on your mind.

Since the infusion last week, I kind of feel like I've been running on 5-hour energies (even though I've had no caffeine). On one hand it feels great not to feel tired for a change. But it can't be healthy to be so amped up that you can't get six solid hours of sleep a day.

It's true that when I have a problem getting back to sleep, my mind is typically running at 100 mph. However, even with my "normal" sleep issues, if I got up for an hour or so, then went back to bed, I could usually get back to another three or so hours of sleep within a short time.

In my 45 years I have never seen anything like that. Impressive.

Like Shipp, besides the ice storms over the weekend, we've had a lot of hoar frost so the scenery is breath taking. The sun is out this AM so it may finally disappear but the last 4 days or so have been beautiful.
I saw a pic of a windmill on facebook where ice formed as the blades were slowly spinning. It was pretty cool. Another was a frozen flag in about 80% unfurl.

Hmm. No steroid increase on my part, but he did give me a shot in my knee after he drained it. You think that may have had an effect that lasts at least a week?
