I'm sleeping a lot, but I'm also finding that I have a lot of energy during the day. I'm cleaning. I'm organizing. I'm gardening. I'm so used to feeling defeated, tired, and burned out that this seems really different. Let's hope it keeps up!
After living in Southern California for 20 years, I returned home to upstate New York to watch over my mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. My brother and I did everything we could to keep her in familiar surroundings at home and avoid assisted living. We were successful until June 2009, two weeks short of her 80th birthday. These Alzheimer's Moments document her life and the challenges of being a primary caregiver.

With all this new energy, I foresee a new Y|O|Y blog along the lines of "Oh Why NOT?"
It sounds like you're really appreciating the extra head space and personal time. You deserve it.

Oh, no, not *another* blog! I can barely keep up with the 3 I've already got!!!
Traveling is at the top of my list and I'm threatening all my friends that I'm going to visit. Just got a post card from a girlfriend in Ireland and traded emails with my buddy in London. We'll see where life takes me next.
I look forward to having the energy that you describe again someday.
