sleepy head

(you know:
"'to bed! to bed!', said Sleepy Head
'tarry a while', said Slow
. . ."
that one)

(and for those who don't, in full:
"'to bed! to bed!', said Sleepy Head
'tarry a while', said Slow
'there's food in the pan', said Greedy Nan,
'let's sup, before we go'
"
that's how I learnt it, anyhow!)

.
comfy bed. . .

garden shed. . .


change of meds. . .

TGD (The Good Doctor) changed my meds a while back but I was sick and unable to get the prescription; yesterday I felt well enough for a short walk in the sunshine (it was quite lovely! almost cheering!) and collected the new drugs; I switched last night, didn't get a wink of sleep; far too early to tell, but no doubt I'll be reporting back; not a huge issue in the bigger scheme of things, but right now I'm living in the smaller scheme of things, the miriad of tiny details that keep a life ticking over. . . and that's fine; but look - hey - I'm sitting here, doing this. . .

. . .sleepy head, comfy bed, garden shed what else rhymes with the sound "ed" and could be added to that list? "crusty bread"? that would work! (it has to make sense, not just be something like "pillar box red", which wouldn't make any sense at all)

Dave said...

Mel said...

"'to bed to bed', said Sleepy Head
'tarry a while', said Slow. . ."


I know I'm gonna feel dumb. LOL But really...figuring it's some nursery rhyme? Maybe?

Or....not......

I, Like The View said...

Dave I won't inquire, will just wait to read about it (should you write about it)

Dave said...

I shall write about my shirt tomorrow, especially for you.

So glad you're feeling better.

I can't think of a single 'sense making' rhyme at the mo'.

I, Like The View said...

I learned this nursery rhyme as a child...and changed it just a little as a parent:

to bed to bed you sleepy head"

hmmmm...what rhymes with sleepy head..let me think...she said.

Mel said...

Wow....never heard of it--until this very minute.

Sleep head...

Darn well fed?
Good book read?
Fiery red?
There he led?
I thee wed?
Then she fled...

Yeah, well....I do........ :-P

I'd say Mel is quite clever at rhyming!

i mounted the sled
down the hill i fled

:-D

Dave said...

Details of the shirt are now posted at my site, for your amusement.

I, Like The View said...

and a very nice shirt it is too, Dave

(altho not stripey)

G you both are!

(-:

Mel in the last couple of days I have read a book for the first time in a long time (I've read it before, but turns out I'd forgotten most of it) - so I'm going with good book read (not The Good Book, you understand)(I'll explain later)

katherine. "she said" is very you

I like that!

Dave your best is very good
