I have not lost January 1st in several years, at least that I remember.
And I suppose for all that we did I really only lost the late afternoon.
And I only had one glass of champagne on New Year’s Eve, so it was not lost for the reason many lose January 1st.

I put it down to disrupted or different sleep patterns, coupled with high carbohydrate intake.

See the previous post for our start to the new year.
We did follow with second breakfast, that lasted until about 3 PM. A fun time visiting and noshing.
When we got home a nap soon followed, and basically consumed the rest of the day.

I am not a good napper, and this nap lasted about 5 hours I think.
I tried to eat something to resemble dinner, and watched a movie with Ashlan (Away We Go).
Then it was back to bed.

Despite sleeping a lot during the day, I managed to sleep in until 9 in the morning.

It just feels like I lost a day.
In retrospect, we got to eat some good food and do a lot of visiting with friends.
So a good day after all.

Other reports:
Rey got back to Tennessee with a pat down, but no other additional overt security measures.
There was one piece of sod turned up this morning by critters. But only one, and in one of the small areas not covered by bird netting. One of today’s chores has been to finish covering the bits left uncovered during the previous net adventure. Hopefully this will be all we have to do until the grass gets rooted in. Of course mowing is impossible at this time, so we will have to be judicious about fertilizing. It is all a guessing game for me. I did start looking for plastic wood planters to put at one side of the yard. If I work at it I should be able to plant some vegetables this spring.
