Agnes was different!
I had a hard time waking up, as well. It got cold last night, (54 when I woke up) but I was all snuggly in my flannel sheets and heated mattress pad.
The sky was overcast when I woke up, also, which means the light didn’t bother me. *sigh*
My niece gave me a Slumber Party Sweet Dreams bag yesterday, with a sleep mask, a gel eye mask, some body lotion and some pillow spray...lavender and valerian. Smells GOOD!
That was a very thoughtful gift. I’m glad you have family there being nice to you!
One of the nice things about the trip now over is that I got two more Air France eyemasks (free). Other airlines give out ones with plastic -- they don't breathe but trap perspiration, making me uncomfortable. The AF eyemasks are fabric and breathe. Much superior, and now I have three.
Gel?
