5/6/26 6:00 51F(10.5C) Clear sky, dry, no wind.

I had poor sleep  last night. First night on a brand new mattress.  Early to bed and out like a light. Marvelous.

Walter got left outside when we went to  bed. Around  2:00 he let us know we had forgotten him.

The waning moon was mid transit and shining brightly when I let him in.

My shoulder hurt and I had trouble getting back to sleep.  When I  did, I slept fitfully with dreams of past failures.

Morning is a welcome respite, listening to the turkeys flirt with each other under clear blue skies.

I watered my gardens. The corn and pumpkin starts are doing well but still look vulnerable.

Now I am soaking in the hot tub.

Later this morning I shall take Walter to town for his summer haircut.

Good morning.
