Good morning Doc!

[First-light]

Seems like we are the early birds around here. Just thought I would start off my 3001 post with you. That is unless someone spoils the fun.......I'll be up at 6:15!

Where's the Coffee Pot ?

Believe it or not, this early awake situation is a result of hunting. When I was still in the workplace, I had a job where I could set my own hours. So when hunting season came around, I arranged things so that I was into work around 4:00 am. That would get me out of work and heading for home at about 1:00 and home at 1:45. That way I could get in a very leisurely afternoon hunt every day of the season, even on work days. What I found out was that it worked out well throughout the rest of the year as well. I was always able to get a pile of things done at work while still having time to do things around the homestead, and also if some overtime were required, I could work in a couple of hours without losing too much free time. The other thing was that because I have always lived out in the sticks, I had a 45 minute drive (one-way). The traffic at that hour was just about nothing. So all I had to do was watch out for deer. The only ugly part was in the winter when often I would be the first vehicle down the road (even before the snowplows).

 

So I have been retired for a few years, and old habits die hard. Getting up early gives me some quiet time before the wife gets up and vacuum cleaners and dishwashers start making noises. Also, I get all my computer crap done before we make plans for the day's activities. I guess I sure am a creature of habit .... lol.

First light, Thanks ,she will be OK. She required major cervical spine surgery, but is getting good care, and is also the toughest person I know.

Don't let Doc fool you . At his age he probably had to get up to pee , checked the computer and made a post in the early hours !

Ha-ha .... As a matter of fact, that is usually what gets me up. Like I say, I am a creature of habit.
