Could not sleep, so went outside to bag a beautiful sunrise.
The clouds used the mountain like a skating ramp and flung themselves into the air. An early photo above in dim light on the zoom.
Good afternoon from South Africa and I hope that none of you are allergic to Mother nature's kaleidoscope of colors. There is much beauty to view in here.
Yay, I was up and out before Robbie, our resident wild Cape Robin could cut loose with his new day song.
So I was ready for him when he came on stage and this was way before sunrise at 4am.
Sorry for the lamp posts, but I wanted to show you the far left hand side of the sunrise.
Here we are back at the right hand side closer to where the sun rises.
And finally it seemed that the day would now start.
Towards the left the skies darkened and it seemed that it would be one of those cloudy days again.
A strange thing is happening to me during the early hours of the morning. For some reason I overheat in bed and at 2-3am I awake with a racing heart and a pulse rate that goes through the roof. This is always accompanied by very extreme nightmares and I don't know if the heat or the nightmares causes this. I can tell you some dreams that will make you sit bolt upright, but I choose not to. The only good thing is that I am unharmed at the end of the dream.
In any case it is at the final stage of the dreams that I awake wet with sweat and it takes about an hour before I return to normal. By that time I am up, dressed and outside in the garden.
Now I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but if it does, please let me know how you handle it.
Hope that you enjoyed the sunrise.
And That's All Friends.

Hey, @papilloncharity ! :) Next time you go to the doctor, ask him if he can check your thyroid. Sometimes the thyroid can give you unusual symptoms like yours.
Just a thought.
You have the most amazing cloud formations. Just beautiful ❤️
Hi Lady Denise, thank you for the care and the kind advice.
I will ask the doctor to send me a test request for my thyroid as we have a medical center here that do all of the tests. Luckily the doctor is a friend and he will send me the test request.
Thank you for the though and it might be the thyroid, but we suspect another hidden artery blockage.
Will see how it goes.
Take care and we wish you all of the very best for the New Year ❤️
!LUV !PIZZA
@papilloncharity(1/5) gave you LUV.
That was the other option, but, I was sure that he would have checked that out. Best wishes for a healthy, happy New Year! ❤️
Mwah!
Maybe he did and I will ask him on Monday when he is back. Also please pray for Marian, as she is getting some severe muscle spasms all over her body. Phoned the emergency at the hospital now, but they are too busy and we will sit the night out here at home.
All blessings also to you dear Denise.
The most common causes for that is stress, anxietu and dehydration. Of course, there are many other things and hope you get it checked out, even if the symptoms go away.
Thank you dearest and tomorrow we will start to finally work things out tomorrow when the doc is back.
As you might know, our last burn out has taken a lot out of us and I even had a stent put into my head.
But Marian is filled with stress and anxiety and it's going to take a lot to get her right.
The funny thing is that now in our third year down here, we both are showing extra signs of aging and that's a big worry.
But such is life and we simply carry on.
!LUV
@papilloncharity(2/5) gave you LUV.
It's the COVID, I swear it. I feel like I aged about 25 years. 🙄
Did you get the doc today?
Sunrises and sunsets, I just love them :)
Oh yeah, I have taken both of them many times over the years.
Cheers.
wow what a great natural view, nice shot buddy
Thank you and glad that you enjoyed the post.
Thanks you so much for everything
Oh yes, I enjoyed the sunrise photos, Zac, they make me wanna go out and shoot myself. Maybe on Sunday.
I know you have told me about waking up, sweating and nightmares before, but it sounds still weird to me that this happens regularly. And no, I don't want to know what the dreams are about.
Cheers with !PIZZA and !BEER or !WINE

Good evening Hannes,
Just don't shoot yourself, as we don't like to see a lot of selfies 🤣 !LOLZ
I hope that you will get great shots on Sunday.
I think that it's a hidden blood circulation problem somewhere Hannes.
They have taken scans of my blood circulation, and although it is at 85%, I don't think that they found the artery that causes the trouble.
But you know what I will say here 😉
Cheers and thanks.
Good evening Zac,
haha, I will shoot my next selfie when I retire and post it - everybody should see the happiest man on earth 😂 !LOLZ
I know, such is life, but you might know what I will say: I don't understand it.
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Good evening Hannes,
Okay you are on and I will remind you about the selfie on the day that you retire 🤣 !LOLZ
Hahaha, yes it seems that you only understand when you want to 🤣
Cheers and thanks.
Good evening Zac,
okay, we have a deal. This will be the first intentional selfie of me 😂 !LOLZ
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Great and I look forward to see a happy and smiling face with no mask or any other efforts to hide the face. I will even allow you to wear a cap and an earing or even a nose ring 🤣 !LOLZ
Cheers and thanks.
Well, if the rules still say "mask" then I will wear a mask, of course, because I don't want to spread my virus around the internet 😂 !LOLZ
Ear ring - yes maybe, nose ring - no way 😎
!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)
