Sunday, October 7 - Massachusetts
Good evening friends! As the days continue to lose their light a bit earlier every day, the weather continues to be her unpredictable self. Mid October, and yes, the evenings are becoming chilly. But daytime temps still fluctuate - cool and "mizzly" one day, then shoot back up into the low 80s. Heavy rains at times in between. Fortunately no unexpected floods here!

Every time I think it is about time to put the patio furniture away for the year - the weather changes and gets warm again for a few days. Same few days I start to think it is time to put the A/C away - then boom - we get a few warm humid days. Go figure!

I am not looking forward to the clocks changing back to EST in another 4 weeks! I truly prefer New England's DST. I used to get up very early - 5:30 AM when I worked. It took me awhile to acclimate, as I am really more of a night owl. I put in my requisite many years of the getting up early thing. Never really got accustomed to it, but I did it.
Now retired, I have reverted to my previous night-owl ways. Hey... you have to go with what works for you. :)

It is a very straightforward alarm clock. No bells & whistles or weird features. I have had it for about 12 years now.
However, it seems to have taken on a life of its own the past few years. Every once in awhile the time has been skipping ahead an hour or two, throwing me off kilter and has me jumping up out of bed at odd hours. I cannot even try to blame the kitties walking over it, as the clock requires 2 hands and pushing a button to set.

Most odd. (I chalk it up in the column of "appliances that hate me".)
The whole past month has been odd, really. Strange things happening amidst the wonderful. And that is life. At least mine!
