HOW MANY CHIMES did I just hear???

OMG .... how many coo-coos was that .... nah, it couldn't be. We just got home. I just sat down. TIME DOES INDEED fly!


The Captain and I have s-l-o-w-l-y morphed to different physical time clocks. 10-10:30 hits and he turns into a pumpkin. When I was working, it was AOK, because ... I was getting up at 5:15 on 3-4 days a week, so except for the "wake up call", I stayed pretty much at the same bedtime, with few exceptions. Over the past year ... I have inched later (and RARELY can you see me up anytime before 7am) And occassionally, current evening included .... I go to bed in the weeeee hours of the morning.



I like it this way- mostly. THIS is my quiet time. No alarms, timers, or becons. There are still mornings ... when the evening before has been warm ... that I slip out of bed just as the sun rises ... to sit on the lanai with a great cup of coffee or fresh juice, and take in the early hours just as eagerly. THIS is one of the things I cherish most about "retirement"- having the freedom to make these choices. I love it!
