Sleep Is Important For Good Mental Health
Newborn kittens can sleep about 20 hours a day. Cats and dogs from 12 - 16. Most will sleep 8 hours at night. Cats will usually live longer than dogs. Maybe due to their nine lives. Maybe their sleeping habits. Both experience rem sleep and that is a good thing as it is the most restful sleep. They need more sleep than humans though as it takes them longer to get their rem sleep and they will get about half as much rem sleep as we do, even with sleeping longer.

Fiction Or Not
As I wrote a story about the picture below, I was so upset that I had not gotten a better photo, when I saw it! A small circular light in the bushes. Not just one but others too. The fog looking material in the picture I thought at first was my lack of photography skill when I realized that may not be it at all! It may be why the critter doesn’t look familiar and no one that looked at it could really say what it is. And even though I was stopped and looking in the direction of the critter, the critter only looked toward me for seconds, and then looked back again at the small circular light. I thought it odd that the critter didn’t move into the woods. I left shortly, and thought that maybe he was hit and needed time to get okay. I let it go until today!

Start The Morning With The Sunrise
Mexico is a beautiful place to visit. Where we are staying the weather is warm, the ocean is close, and the people are so friendly. I am so glad that I can work from home in Mexico. My boss went to bat for me to be the first to work away from the office in Minnesota.

Did Curiosity Really Kill The Cat
The young man above is curious and you can tell that he is a curious fellow in the picture above. The woman next to him is curious also, but you can't really tell if she is watching what he is watching. She is though as she almost always knows exactly what is going on around her. I found out that a term for this is hypervigilance. And you can bet her mother may have it too. And my guess is he comes by his curiosity naturally as he probably comes from a long line of curious men and women.
