Getting back to sleep.

Although I do not suffer from insomnia, like most people, I do sometimes wake at night and have difficulty in getting back to sleep.

It helps to think of something pleasant in order to relax the mind and coax it back into slumber.

In my case, I like to think about how I will spend my lottery winnings.

It works like a charm; and within minutes I am back in the land of Nod.

The fact that I do not participate in any lotteries, means that any chance of me winning, is beyond remote.

Details, details...it works.  zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Christmas tree candles

In my youth I recall that our Christmas tree was decorated with real wax candles in small clip-on holders. 

Unsurprisingly this is rare today. 

Too many trees burnt to cinders and houses too.
