Dad Dancing.
Bella Shepard said:

You just hit on something dear to my heart. I hear the music and I can\'t help but move. I rarely get to go dancing anymore, but nothing stops me from dancing, by myself, in my living room, to music of the sixties. Only problem is that hips and knees have aged, where the brain has not followed. Thank you for this little trip down memory lane, a great write!

Andy, You need to put your sage advises together and write a self help book instead of scattering your pearls of wisdom around here (not suggesting you stop!!)

Laughter And Sleep.
L. B. Mek said:

that\'s why insomnia
is such an evil, hindrance
to our whole wellness
and sleeping pills, are such a dangerous slippery-slope
to addiction\'s or unhealthy over reliance\'s, doors..
but I have found powernaps
are a great way to get your accumulative sleep..
as for laughter
get it wherever you can
laugh till you can\'t breathe and be grateful
for each chuckle..
(such a great read, Andy
and so, so
timely and relevant)
thank you!

I\'m gonna try & put your last four lines to the test the next time I\'m on call and get summoned to the holding cells at the local nick in the middle of the night , just so some other soul can get some shuteye ...

There Will Be No Hurricane Tonight.
Fay Slimm. said:

The worst weather forecast ever given was that time in eighty seven when all hell was let loose and you were there to see it all Andy - - terror you will never forget.

There Will Be No Hurricane Tonight.
dusk arising said:

Something very \'Fishy\' about the weather that night Andy.

There was a less newsworthy hurricane in early 60\'s Nottinghamshire which nealy saw the end of my brother and me when a huge brick chimney was blown over and landed on the roof above where were were in our beds. Had that roof been less robust it would have ended my poetry there and then lol.

A great poem from you today. We brits are known for our \'talking about the weather\' and boy do we have occasions to talk about especially this month.

Glad to know you don\'t remember most dreams, Andy - I\'d get quite discombobulated if exposed to too many of them.....lol

Strange Dream.
dusk arising said:

Ah well, now you have uncovered my secret talent... I am able to read from the dreams of others.

Your dream follows a quite frequent theme as recounted by many but more especially in the warmer months when sleep can be restless.

Though not so easily discerned as some more bland dreams of others it is plain to see your dream is telling you, nay, in fact pointing you in the direction of refraint. Stop eating cheese before bedtime!

Keep smiling.

Strange Dream.
orchidee said:

Oh lol. I dream I am at work sometimes, trying to catch-up on some work after holidays. At one time the work was not shared out, and I dreaded taking too long for holidays, as the work would pile up ready for my return.
I feel tired sometimes after those dreams - trying to work while asleep?
Was it a pink elephant or a kangaroo?!
