Better today

Went to bed very early last night and woke up around 7:30 this morning. Of course I was up about five times during the night but that's normal, even though I took two sleeping pills. UGH! So I went with Maria to the home of Alice and Joe on a farm in Oxford. Met a lot of very nice people and learned how to make lye soap. What fun and so easy!! Then I went down the Elks for a few hours and now I'm home and ready to go to bed early again. 1/15/13 -- Editing this to say that I've totally shocked myself. I never mentioned that the 12th would have been Allen's 59th birthday. My God! Am I finally letting myself be free of him? I don't really think so since there hasn't really been a day that I remember, since he and I started dating in 1969, that I haven't thought of him. So I find it weird that even though I thought of him all day on Saturday, I didn't mention him in here.
