with the preceding poor night’s sleep full of

Dreams that upset and confuse.

Sore eyes wanting to close,

Shoulders tense with unease.

Pick up a soft and sweet rabbit asking for a hug. Snuggle and pet.

Find lumbar pillow. Insert behind lower back in recliner.

Reach for a flavored coffee: half caffeinated, so as not to over stimulate.

Add a layer of cozy blanket throws.

Take a deep breath.

Close eyes.

Empty mind of confusion and worries.

Take another deep breath.

Rest.
