Me and My Fellow Old People

I have something wrong with me that makes my body hurt most of the time, it gets worse when I get cold. I have gotten MUCH better since I no longer do manual labor.
I have been thinking of ways to exercise in the winter. I'm not into gyms. Swimming sounds nice but even the indoor pools are too cold. I did some research and found a Warm Water Therapy Pool run by the Easter Seals about 6 miles South of my house. Anyone can go. They have classes and open pool times. $9 drop in, or you can get a punch card, or a membership. I'm going over tomorrow to see how it looks. I can order private lessons quite reasonably and I can polish up my strokes quickly, hopefully they'll have times for lap swimming.

lack of sleep

*puzzled* I thought you had insomnia issues . . .

What she has is thinking-too-hard issues. She falls asleep at a moment's notice, sometimes in the middle of a conversation, except for when she's sitting there at 2 AM thinking about how she's going to attach 10,000 boingy springs to the living room ceiling and put a glowing eyeball on the end of each one and it's going to look so cool she can't wait until tomorrow to start making it.

This happens pretty often too.

Nope. I currently get 7-8h. For many years there it was 5-6h. Not due to insomnia, I just didn't need that much sleep. And there were so many fun things to do!
