Peace in my soul,and a calmness of mind

Good afternoon journal,the time is 12:35pm,I am later than usual for our daily rendezvous,but exhaustion decreed that I sleep until 11:20am.I did wake at 4:10am when one of our dogs became restive,but having soothed her,I slept until 6:45am when I became aware of my wife rising,and although my intentions were to do likewise;I slipped into sleep again until 11:20am.I feel rested but still tired,a condition I have become accustomed to over the last few months,so much so,that it provokes merely a feeling of mild irritation now rather than anger at having wasted so much of my day.Yesterday was a very pleasant experience for both of us,it passed quietly,without animosity or a harsh word being spoken,before retiring together at just after midnight.I spent most of my waking hours mentally attempting to control my mood changes,the ones I recognized as about to occur were somewhat of a struggle,but manageable,the others that I failed to see happening until they were almost beyond any control,proved a more lengthy,and mentally draining,exercise.I was heartened by the moderate success I achieved,my next success will be when I can control my mind without feeling like a limp dish mop afterwards.This morning/afternoon,has begun in the same pleasant atmosphere as yesterday ended,it is extremely enjoyable to have my family around me today;and as yet,my mind is behaving itself.Because I feel so tired,I will make this a short entry,being of the opinion that my tiredness is best served by relaxation and recuperation;till tomorrow then,my mood remains good journal,may God walk with us today.
