I know Mom.. I hate being forced by tiredness to take them too.. If I could just stop getting up so early in the morning, but it's my way and has been for years and years.. Before I had the computer I used to paint until other people got up, but now I nose around the internet..

When one thirty or two o'clock in the afternoon rolls around I get sleepy.. Of course when I was younger I could go all day then half the night again..

Those days are gone now..but thank goodness my good looks, sveltness, smoothskinned face and stunning personality are still intact... ;) heh heh heh...

Naturally, all the good things remain, as we age(Yuck, Yuck)...

My uncle who lived downstairs of us while I was growing up, used to get up at 5am for his job...even when he retired tho, he had spent so many years getting up at that time, he just got up at that time even when retired...by the time the rest of us upstairs were getting ready to go, my uncle had already gone to bed...

It really was odd that way...the uncle and his family downstairs, were all more geared to getting up extra early, because the man of the house got up so early...but in our house, with my dad working graveyard, we always were more later risers(except when us kids were in school)...

It always made for interesting family outings when both familys would go on picnics and such...usually one of the men, would wind up falling asleep on the picnic blanket...but we knew how the different scheduling went in the two different households, so both families tried to be accomodating to the other family...

It was always so funny tho, when my uncle was getting ready to pull out of the garage to go to work, my dad was pulling in from working the whole night...it was kind of like two ships passing in the night...
