I woke up late...I must have needed it!....After hearing the six o'clock news...after hearing something at 3am.....
Without the radio on very low, sleeping can be difficult...when I am awake I can hear it, quite low....which gives me something to focus on. However it is a double edged sword....when it does get interesting one relaxes and falls asleep!!
I am gradually sleeping better...good sleep won't come overnight (ha ha!!)
So, make a small pot of coffee....grab a small cupful and take the car down to Davey for a check over after two long trips.
Then back for a late breakfast and consider the jobs that need doing...
A bit of sun....so washing in....and on the line!!
Collect the car at lunchtime. I knew the offside dipped beam was out on the headlights...but the bulb was broken..most odd. Anyway, all fluids topped up and everything checked....worth the £20 for peace of mind.
Back to the house and let floor cleaning commence!! Downstairs anyway...even with taking outdoor shoes off ( most of the time...) it is surprising how much gets in. So, vacuuming and steam cleaning the hard floors done...and it looks much better.
It didn't actually rain, but the air felt really damp... clothes in, on the rack and dehumidifier on...
And the day just goes in bits and bobs.....when dusk creeps in, you don't feel like doing much.
So the evening's occupation was sewing ( accompanied by YouTube....some Time Team and some Robbie Cummings of Canal Boat Diary. )
That is how I carry the patchwork....one square block...the strips pinned up in order, sew one strip and place it at the bottom of the stack.
When all are done, the strips are in the correct order still, hopefully, to be pinned together to make the block.

I hope you're sleeping well tonight. I'm up with a sore throat.
Projects are never ending. Like you, I have a tidy home and car in good working order.
That is good progress on the quilt. I
Sounds like a good routine that quilting will come together eventually. White noise, is that what the low radio is for you? what about a station playing music? Just wondered what you'd think of that.
Is CBD legal in Scotland? If so, the occasional gummie helps with sleep. Or at least that's what SWMBO tells me. (wink-wink-nudge-nudge) With your active life I would think sleep would come naturally, though it may take time to get past your loss. Still sending good vibes.
You still got a lot accomplished.
Yes, to distract..it is mostly music but not all
I take CBD THC free gummies...they do help
Even one step in the right direction is good
Sleep is a fickle mistress! I hope you are finding ways to get enough.
I agree about dirt getting in! Where does it come from??
