I'm home! Thanks for thinking of giving me something to read Cleda!
Haven't unpacked the car yet - had students posting questions for me to do just as I was leaving, so got home, brewed a coffee (still not poured) and went to desk / computer to do their questions - hence being here; my VERY NEXT thing! Trip was uneventful, which is a good thing - 8-3/4 hrs door to door. LILI Some nights I get woken with a hot flush a dozen times, sometimes only about 5, which is more typical. Mostly I'm instantly wide awake, but after about 10min I'm feeling cool again, pull up the covers & go back to sleep. Do you also get restless legs? That's been happening more to me lately - taking hours to settle enough to sleep, like by 3am. That's worse than the flushes. DH is in the process (for several YEARS) of removing & replacing the house. Bits at a time, so he still has an actual house to be in. He's down to having: 1) kitchen 2) bedroom/TV/desk room 3) laundry/bathroom The floors are/were dangerously brittle/broken - those still in place are covered in vinyl but you can feel them wobble as you walk. Another room has had the floorboards removed & a concrete floor poured over in-floor heating coils; and another has just had the floorboards removed & gravel to discourage snakes. Yes, there have been times where he's had his feet up outside with morning tea, finished & gone to put his feet down & a snake was under his chair - oh, might read the news a little bit longer. We get Eastern Brown snakes (deadly poison AND aggressive, ~5 ft long) and red-bellied black snakes (also very poisonous but not deadly & not aggressive, except towards the browns , ~4 ft long), so we prefer the red-bellys. Having snakes around stops getting mice, rats, & rabbits in large numbers.
