Yes, I absolutely agree with you. And when they call tonight, I will tell them so. I’ve told them in the past. They want to control me, but I won’t ever be controlled again.

I can’t remember being an unhappy Yute, but I can remember liking to sleep.

The laundry room was something else today. For the first time in a long time, the swamp cooler was off, but it just made the place feel close. I turned it on Low Cool, but all it did, of course, was make the place feel damp.

But the laundry is done for another week, and I need to go make my bed, then fix some tea (only three more days!) and hang the shirts.

I don’t understand why it’s so hard to be considerate. I don’t phone or text people if I think they’re likely to be asleep. That means not after 8:30 p.m. in my time zone (unless a later hour is pre-arranged), and not before 9:00 a.m. unless I hear from them first. How hard is this?

The youths make the choice to stay up later, even when they’re told I will be calling them at the standard 6:15 a.m. Choices have consequences. They can have naptime after lunch if they want.
