The "fall back" date seemed later than usual this year. Don't we always do this extra hour while we are still in October? Maybe I am just recalling it incorrectly. Anyway, it felt like a mere drop in the proverbial bucket. Did I really get to sleep in an extra hour on Sunday? I guess so, but it flew by so fast it hardly made a dent.
Poor Sugar feels the same way. She is still on spring time. At 5pm she starts looking accusingly at me, as if to say - "It's dinner time! Get up and feed me!" and in the wee early hours of the morning I hear her whimpering as if to say "Why aren't we getting up?" Or at least turning on the light to read devotions even if it is still dark out there.
How confusing it must be for her to suddenly have her entire world shifted down by an hour! I can relate. That's kind of how it is when I get these darn maintenance chemos. Everything goes into slow motion. I am already dreading the upcoming one, but I am determined to remain thankful that I have the option. Its sure a whole lot better than the alternative!
Maybe Sugar's shift isn't quite so drastic, but I know when your tummy says eat and your bowl is empty, its just plain rude. She'll adjust. Eventually.
