“Why do I do this? Polish my nails at 3 am when I could have worn closed toe shoes?”
Obviously my subconscious brain is worried about sandals because truly, there is no logical reason to polish toes in the middle of the night…..
I thought I had broken this 40-something-hormonal habit- but no, it has apparently returned. Three nights in a row. I am running out of dishes to avoid washing. So last night I gave myself a pedicure. Picture this– I am sitting on the floor with my legs straight in front of me. I have a red wool blanket tented over my shoulders. Our house is always arctic. My toes are numb. They are separated with pink rubber thingys.
I look like a web-footed igloo. Bored watching paint dry, I open my laptop. Not interested in doing “work stuff”, I decide to click onto “birthday calculators”. I actually feel like I may have stumbled onto something enlightening; I even hear myself saying, “cool, this describes me”……. until I realize I am on someone’s personal dog astrology website.
Woof-woof. How did I get here? ZZZZZzzzzzzz……..
Getting to know you: What is the most random thing you have ever done in the middle of the night?














cute toes!!
random late night thing…closets, always closets. when i can’t sleep or have stuff on my mind, i organize closets. i take EVERY THING out and purge and put things back! yep…closets!
speaking of arctic…my MIL’s house is ALWAYS freeeeezing, seh loves it cold so she can snuggle up. my daughter calls her house “the north pole”.
We keep our house arctic, too, lol.
Hmmm…I’ve risen from a dead sleep in the night realising I’d forgotten to check door locks around the house, and so got up to do that.
Another time, around Christmas a couple of years ago, I couldn’t sleep knowing how much I had to get done, so I got up and my hubby found me sewing at 3 AM.
How funny Debbie–I do the same thing. If I can’t sleep, I usually give myself a pedicure, or I end up cleaning out my closet/bedroom/drawers.
Or I blog. Or comment.
-looks at clock-
Yeah, can you tell I can’t sleep?
I hope your toes look pretty!
:]
