Every year I look forward to the day the clocks get turned back. Sure, it means it gets dark way too early in the evenings. But gaining an hour always seems like the most amazing luxury. I always use my wonderful free hour the same way: sleeping.
I needed it more than usual this time: it's been a hectic few days. Thursday I caught up on work and then subbed Divaville. Friday I sewed the chemise and drawers for my costume, which took the entire day and way into the night. Saturday I cleaned my car, then spent the afternoon in Clayton at the "trunk or treat" with Patricia. In the evening we went to Lisa's halloween party, which was so much fun that I stayed up way past my bedtime. This morning I slept through my extra hour and then some. In the afternoon I planted a bunch of irises Nancy had given me, then Georg and I cut down a couple of small trees. (Actually he cut them down and I cut them up.)
All of which I will write about in detail, but right now I'm going to lie down and watch TV. Tomorrow and Tuesday I'm going to be volunteering for the county democratic party. I don't know how tiring that will be. So I may end up waiting until Wednesday to get caught up here.
