Well, we got sun, for now at least. It's a beautiful start to the day anyway. I'm realizing waking up that more sleep isn't necessarily as good as deep sleep. Finally getting to the point where, you know, I'm seeing 6, 7 hours of sleep a night, but man, it's not deep. It is not deep at all. Those dreams and nightmares, it's an active nighttime sleep for sure, but It made me realize that doing more of something isn't necessarily going to be better all the time. Sometimes it's about just understanding the quality of it and getting the most squeeze out of it, getting the most juice for your squeeze, you know? Anyway, I guess that's a bit of a midweek thought here of like how much of what I'm doing is just to be busy and fill time and how much of it is filling time well. Morning thought.
