Seeing the sun go down so early, is the hardest part of time change.

For a lot of people, having to change the clocks, and adjust to the mornings is the hardest part. Growing up as a student and going to school, it's the same. I was like that too. But now, as I write this post and watch the sun set, It doesn't feel like it's only 5:30. My brain keeps wanting to think it's much later.
I've put in a full day and it doesn't feel like it. But, here we are. Several hours away from bed, but still.
At least I got one of two tube feeds in at a reasonable time. George tried to pull a fast one, by asking for food right before bed and trying to going to bed, knowing full-well I hadn't given him the second tube of the day. He then tried to argue with me, saying I could skip it. Nope.... If his weight drps too quickly, then I'll be told to incresse his feeds.

@LadyDuck After a while our bodies will adapt and it'll become normal, but by then it's headed the other way.

I don't find it so much depressing so much as it can throw my rythem off. Part of me feels I should be sleeping, but remember it's only 5 or six at night.

@porwest When the sun goes down early, and George asks me 'what time is it, I have to look at the time to answer him.

@kaylachan To me, I don't really notice the hour. Just the ratio of dark to light.

George is a sly one, isn't he? My day is a bit anxiety ridden with the news I got. You will probably read about it. Ugh! I'll be glad when that is over with.

@kaylachan ........I pretty much do that myself. I get my news from YouTube and in bits and pieces as I can handle it.

What news? Most of it, I ignore or take as a grain of salt.

I keep the door to my workroom closed at this time the golden light in the kitchen as the sun goes down over the Halifax River makes me terribly sad and I try to ignore the darkness around me,

The sun going down earlier does make me a little bit sad since it gets darker sooner.

Yeah, I know. And our bodies are programed to think dark means sleep.

I've never had that problem, but when George worked for Pizza hut or had 3 jobs that happened often.
