I’m beginning to think that this getting older thing is real. Last year when the time changed, it took me several days to re-adjust. At the time, I put it down to work stresses.<\/p>\n
We came back from the Eastern time zone last Wednesday. Today is Saturday, ten days later. This morning is the first time I’ve felt like I’ve gotten decent sleep that is aligned with the sun.<\/p>\n
It’s weird; both times the symptoms weren’t overt. I wasn’t getting up exactly three (or one) hours earlier, etc. It was more like being generally unsettled. This time, it was complicated by the fact that I didn’t<\/em> have to go to work every day. Laying in bed in the morning – or going to bed early – was an option that I took advantage of.<\/p>\n Come to think of it, maybe that’s why it took longer. Hmmmm . . . .<\/p>\n So, I am retired now. I did go into Davies Hall one time to help with some transition issues but mostly my schedule is completely open. We had some doctor appointments; we got the car serviced, but this is the new normal.<\/p>\n The trip was great. We went to Toronto and Montreal and visited Sepi’s sister’s family. Jet lag issues on the front end were relatively minor. I attributed our fatigue more to the fact that we came out on a red-eye. But, we also were thrown into doing things! I’ll have to remember that.<\/p>\n I’ll do a write up in a separate post. I have the time now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m beginning to think that this getting older thing is real.
