I HATE DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME!!!

I went to bed early Sunday night, hoping to get my share of sleep during this transition from winter to summer daylight saving time. Unfortunately, I woke up at 4:00 AM (which was really 3:00 AM – oh, never mind) and could not go back to sleep.

So, like everyone else in the office, I spent the day dragging… Some people say it takes them just a day or two to adjust, but it usually takes me a week or so.

I went to work in a light rain, but it had stopped enough so I could take my morning walk outside.

At lunch, I stopped at the Home Depot to pick up some more sanding paper for the palm sander (I ran out on Sunday). Then I went home and ate a brat and watched the news. Don’t drop the soap, Kwame!

I had to walk inside at 3:00 PM as the rain had returned, falling quite hard at times.

After driving in the rain to get home, I took the trash can out to the road and then went in to treat the cats and have a cup of coffee.

I warmed up the half of steak and another baked potato for my dinner. It was excellent, all over again.

Now, a downside of woodworking is the sawdust you somehow track in the house, no matter what you do to prevent it. And, I was tired of it! So, I cleaned my house! I vacuumed, then swept the whole house with the electric sweeper.

I grabbed another cup off coffee, took off the stove grates and drip pans, put them in the dishwasher and ran a load through. I washed the stove top and the sink. I also did a load of laundry that consisted of all the towels in the house and my bathrobe.

Next, I washed the kitchen floor (after moving all the chairs and the rolling cat into the living room). I watched some taped TV shows while that dried.

When it did, I moved everything back into the kitchen, washed the bathroom floor and then the office floor. It was 9:45 PM when I finished. I got the load out of the dryer and hung up the towels and my bathrobe.

I watched one more taped DIY show and then went to bed.
