How Come?
How come I can look at my evening about 7 PM and think that I'll get to bed sort of early tonight and then before I know it, it's after 10, and it takes me another hour to get settled in bed and turn the lights out?
I was sure tonight would be an early night. I didn't even turn the TV on tonight. But I got started to work on the Columbus newsletter, made one phone call and talked to two people about their news, and then got it typed up. Today I completed two full pages and got another one more than half done, and I have ideas for further pages. But now it's 10:30, my time, and I haven't headed for bed yet.
I was thinking that anything I got done for the newsletter tonight would make the coming days easier for me because I should have the newsletter completed, ideally, before Thanksgiving. I think it won't be done till afterwards because some people won't have their articles or news to me before then. Still, I'm pleased with my accomplishments this evening even though I'm not having as early a bedtime as I thought I would.

This reminds me: when we were kids, Mom put us to bed when it got dark no matter what time it was. Now, when it gets dark so early, I still have that inclination; that it's time to go to bed. Of course, I don't but I start thinking about it - well, it's getting "close" to bedtime!!
