When morning doesn’t go as planned
Asleep at 10 and awake at…what time?
…or so it appeared.
Thus began the morning routine:
- Take supplements (like turmeric, brain enhancement formula with names I can’t pronounce…)
- Refill dog food bowls
- Check dog water bowls, clean and fill…
I looked at the clock again. It wasn’t 20 minutes to 6! It was 12:40am!!!
Note to self: When clock hands create a straight line, pay close attention to which number is crossed out. That’s called “the minute hand.”
…and then, I shuddered at the unwanted anticipation of a bizarre torture inflicted on the world by people in power who have no common sense.
Yes. In another 3 weeks and 5 days, a useless ritual will occur that is far worse than a house-sized meteor hitting the mid-Atlantic!
DAYLIGHT SLAVING TIME: An event that leaves your inner clock looking like this…
A Tsunami is preferable. When you live on high(er) ground in the middle of a state, a 100 foot wall of water isn’t going to invade your house.
The downside? I might have to commute to work by boat. Except that work is about 10 feet above sea level and I’m not a diver…and I don’t like being on water…or in a boat.
People who love boating say, “No worries, it’s perfectly safe.
I say, “Yeah…right.”
I have a full day of work tomorrow copying files.
The only thing more exciting than that is being in a coma…or filing. Is there a difference?
At least I won’t have to take my morning pills.
Since retirement, I don’t even notice DST anymore. Especially since I don’t go to bed or get up at the same time every day.

It foobars my inner time clock. Dogs don’t care what we do to our clocks. They’ll be getting me up an hour early. Work is 8 to 4 and I can come in anytime I want, but unless someone who isn’t a subcontractor is there, I can’t be the last one to leave.

I got up today at 7am. (I know, atrocious!) It was SO dark that I went straight back to bed (perks of working from home and waking up 5 minutes before work is about to start). I don’t want to even think about what DST will do to that.

There are some things I can do at home, However; Chasing down the information I need in order to do reports isn’t one of them. Tomorrow, I’ll be working from home and the dogs will lick my face around 7:30. They will continue to do that when the clock says 6:30.

Licking my face is their way of saying, “Up, up, pet me-pet me, Up, up, pet me-pet me…”
Were my face tasty, I probably wouldn’t have survived this long. 😂😂😂
