In the midnight hour…

Well, it was actually PAST the midnight hour. I had gone to bed hale and hearty, with perhaps a glass or two of red wine to quell my beating heart! I woke up around 3am with very nasty heartburn. I thought it would pass but after an hour or so of tossing and turning and aching, I abandoned that pretence and got up and went downstairs for a glass of water. The house was dark and quiet.

I lay down on the sofa as it gave me the comfort of a raised head and feet which helped eased the heartburn. After about half an hour, I started to feel better and went back to bed. By around 4.30am I got back to sleep before awakening at my normal 6.30am time. Felt drained though and it is only now that the batteries are recharged and let battle commence!
