Set all my clocks back one hour last night before I went to bed and I woke up at a decent hour and felt like I was back in the real world. It is 6:00 AM and I have been up over an hour and now the sun is coming up. When I go to pick up baby at 7:00 AM the sun will be fully up and the geese will be out looking for whatever it is geese look for all day. Why can't we just leave the damn clock alone?
An old Indian Chief said it best when he said, "A white man is the only one who thinks he can cut a foot off the bottom of the blanket and sew it on the top of the blanket and thinks he has a longer blanket. " Hit the old nail on the head there.
We still have the same amount of daylight hours as we did yesterday, the only difference is the daylight starts a little earlier which means kids go to school when the sun is up and get home as it is going down. To me it means I can let the geese out before I pick up baby and start my day and that eliminates having to make a trip back out here to let the geese out before I start my town stuff. I can just stay in town and "gitter done!" It also means I can close them up while the news is on and I don't have to miss crucial questions on Jeopardy!
So, now life is good here on the farm and shall stay that way until the powers that be deem it necessary for me to go back to the other time which I do not know which time is the time it should really be the real time. Is this daylight savings time, or was the one we just ended the daylight savings time. The government should understand that all of us are getting older and while change is inevitable, some things should be left alone. My little mind is having enough trouble understanding what day it is anyway, without having to remember that while Arizona does not observe daylight savings time, I do not know what time I am on. Is my time and Arizona time the same now or were we on the same time yesterday? It is a very good thing that I do not have to conduct a lot of business with anyone in Arizona. I do have friends there and I could ask them what time it is. Maybe I will go do that now! Then I am off to pick up baby on this Sunday morning, which I do not usually do, but there you go. No problem for someone who does not even know what day it is anyway!
So, Merry Thanksgiving to you, or Happy Birthday, whatever day it is and whatever time it is in your world!
