Went to bed at midnight, up at six. Our store lost power for ten hours, so anything perishable had to be thrown out. We could not even take the chance on donating product to local food banks due to health concerns. Acts of God remind us that we have little say in such things.

Have a good day all!

Up at 7:30am

It's a shame having to throw out all that food.

With the time change tomorrow, I should be up 6:30am. Then push it back an hour to 5:30am for work Monday morning. We'll see how it actually works out.

Evil plan today is tire and oil change on Mrs D. car and maybe some Christmas lights. Ukulele lessons for sure.

So sorry to hear this Stargazer.
We are all very dependent on electricity.
Hope the power outage is not recurring!
Up early today prepping for a day of teaching and we all set our clocks back tonight.
Have a great Saturday all.

Hanging out with Gdaughter today. I was looking forward to first Saturday off in 2 months but DIL volunteered to work Saturday’s without asking me first. I’m not amused!
Off to feed the birds and get on with the day.

A safe sober day to all.

Up at 1:50 am, back to sleep a bit, then got up at 1:30 am. The beauty of time changes. It makes the early shift a little more bearable.

Have a good day all!

Good morning....woke at 0330 ate a couple fresh plums.....was a great season for them.

All clocks, computers, phones, reset. My bedroom clock is a relic and difficult to set.

Is the entire world on DST?

Ready for a sober day.

You all have a wonderful day...

20 month olds do not recognize extra hour of sleep! I’m changing clocks and starting the day dark and early.

Happy Sunday to all.

Up at 5:30 am, lazed around until 8 am.

My bed side clock is suppose to automatically set to standard time. So when it read 6:30 am and the dog was bugging me, I figured he thought it was 7:30 and time I got up. But nope, it was actually 5:30 am.

Morning all.
The time change is always weird but this is my first one sober in a very long time.
It was a good but long day yesterday so toying with the idea of just resting today.
Scheduled for yoga, a training ride and chores but I may just not.
Sometimes plans and routines really serve us but I think I take it to extremes at times.
Maybe a side effect of new sobriety.
Happy Sunday all!

Up at 2:18 am for work. Fell asleep quickly last night as I felt as though it was an hour later. I don't feel very well rested though.

Have a good day all!

Internal bathroom alarm went off in the middle of an eye opening dream and I’m wide awake but exhausted all at once.
Taking a me day with a nap later.

Hope we all have a peaceful Monday.

Bathroom alarm went off. Went back to sleep yesterday and hoping to today also. No weird message dreams again. Had another during second sleep session yesterday.
Picking up friend for noon meeting and blood work this afternoon. Hope it goes to 6 months instead of 4 soon. I will miss visiting son this afternoon but we had a decent talk on the phone yesterday.
Melski almost 5 months is wonderful and electricity sure helps.

A safe sober day to all.
