This is written with me believing it's still dark outside and Monday morning.
I'll write this as it's kinda "in the works" so to speak. Me and Nosey snuggle in the warm covers for a bit and I see the Time Warner digital time says 6:02. When I actually get up the clock mysteriously says 10:16. Then Nosey does his business in the frigid wind outside, we come back up and I make coffe, sit here to write to my aunt. I see the time on my computer clock says 10:? and the digital readout says the same, yet (now here's the ?!?) my battery operated wall clock now says 11:19! What's happening?
Here's what I do know. Yesterday was an awesome day all around. After not being able to "deal with it" in the previous 24 hours, yesterday afternoon, I'm finally able to write back to my father and his great wife concerning my visit with my Nosey. Oh my goodness; I will call my father's home right now just to make sure all is well.
Live action: my father answer's quite cheerily (which surprises me because of "the dog issue" and I realize he's fine and quickly tell why I'm calling ; he says he doesn't know what I'm talking about and I ask if he wants me to explain. "Yes, if you can be quick." So I tell it as I did above. He says it is 11 something there too. Quite irritated (believing he's being senile and thinking he must think it's 11 a.m.) I say, "Well Dad it's dark out!", he says, "It's dark out here too (and then something like where are you?)."
I'm believing he thinks it's 11 a.m. and it's dark, and I'm irritated and say we're all on the east coast, what's going on bla, bla. I ask what he's doing up so early and he says they're watching a movie, it's night, or whatever. I'm in absolute shock at the entire scenario. I tell him it's a good thing I hadn't started cooking the beans soaking overnight. He's laughing, telling me not to worry; we all have these moments......
So here I am, writing this and realizing how I've really "you know what". My dogs been fed, I've had a couple cups of coffee already, and everything happens for some reason. Is the reason to see that I origionally saw the time say 6:03 because I saw what I expected? Did I feel so rested because I had such a satisfying day? Did I have this call with my father so we'd laugh about it with genuine love in our hearts?
I better try to get some sleep because we're off to the nursing home - rehabilitation facility in about 7-8 hours, and I will be dragging if I don't. All I can say at this point is, "Oh crap." and I do feel heavy eye lids now at this point, but I want another cup of coffee and now it seems fruitile and I've really screwed my expected day. Oh well; this is MY life ~ I'm smiling for real.
Always ~ LL
