Doing a bit better

Even though it was hotter than hell in Hillsboro today, I think I'm finally getting much needed sleep. A good 12 hours on Monday and almost as much today. I would have probably gotten a bit more except someone came banging on a door -- I don't know if it was mine or the neighbors' since no one was at mine. But I know it wasn't a hallucination since Robin was barking loudly and quite upset.

Didn't do much -- couldn't do much -- due to the heat. Watered the garden and that was about it. Poor Robin is quite uncomfortable as well. During the day he was constantly changing position and getting up and plopping down again. As long as he doesn't look at me though when he pants, I don't have any but pity for him.

Well, not much else to say at this point. I'm actually tired enough that I want to go to bed fairly soon. It's pretty incredible, but I do go to bed about the same time every night if left to my own devices.

Oh, the one other thing I wanted to record was that I've been having a bit more trouble with dizziness, especially when working in the garden as of late. I believe it is also related to the lack of sleep. And actually, just about everything is affected by it one way or the other. So I've come up with a plan and will have to see if how it works out.

I don't think it will cool down much tonight, so tomorrow will be a rough day. Oh, my legs are in horrible shape from the itching -- I don't know why, but now whenever I get a mosquito bite it turns a horrible shade of black.
