The time change really messed me up
I have been getting up at around 7 lately. I think the exercise program has something to do with that.
Last night we set all the clocks ahead one hour. Microwave, oven, cuckoo, radio, bathroom clock....everything went ahead an hour.
I have a phone by my bed. The phone has the time on it. I always check the time when I wake up.
I must have been tired. Or it could have been the pinot noir consumed while playing cards. Not sure. But I slept well.
I woke up, and looked at the phone and it was 8:40. I figured no problem, I can sleep another 20 minutes and then get up, shower, dress and make church at 10:30.
Plan worked out correctly. At exactly 9:02 on the phone I got up, went into the kitchen to make tea and the microwave and oven and cuckoo all said 10:02.
Actually the cuckoo was cuckooing the 10 as I stared at the microwave.
The phones are all one hour behind. We have had these phones for years and I never ever remember changing the time, either springing ahead or falling behind.
What the hell??
I then discovered my Sunday Tribune was not there again, making it 5 weeks in a row I did not get the Trib.
At that point I decided to go to Avenue Q. Jackie was having a tough day moving and didn't feel up to it, so I went by myself.
I know I have the directions for the phones someplace....if I can find them maybe I can figure out how to change the time.
Until then, I'll have to find my watch to see if I should be getting up.
It's a rough life, being retired.
