What is my favourite time of the day?

As I had indicated in my Saturday’s post, this is the second post to answer the seven questions that Grannymar had asked in her meme.

My favourite time of the day is easily my post lunch siesta.

One of the things that I eagerly looked forward to during my working life was to retire so that I could have that lovely afternoon sleep. Every week end that I was able to get that in, was another resolve to retire as early as possible to enjoy that particular indulgence.

I wake up usually around 4.45 am and have a fairly busy morning with domestic chores, newspapers, crossword puzzles and other inevitable tasks that have to be undertaken in any household. By the time I have lunch, I am quite ready for that spot of bliss and nothing can come between that and me during those couple of hours.

Unfortunately, there are some afternoons when telephone calls, particularly from direct marketeers or callers at home like the courier person, interrupt the sleep and I find it difficult to get back to sleep. These occasions are however quite rare and I do get my uninterrupted sleep quite regularly.

What about you?
