You do the maths

It's 7.12 AM. We are not doing well. If you know anything about my Boy, do know this: he is not a morning person. Never has been and, unfortunately, probably never will be. Two problems: a) he married a morning person; b) he has good intentions. Plus we went to bed at 1.30 last night.

Because we are keen on seeing Grandma as soon as, he has booked the tickets for 8.30 AM. Yes, in a little more than an hour. We have to walk the dogs to the station, so they can have a bit of exercise before they have a 4-hour trip. He is also bringing his bike so that he and Fil can have a ride. No-one will be there to pick us up from the train station, so he will have to cycle the 5 or so miles to Grandma's house. And he never sleeps on the train.

So here's the equation:

Early train(Late night +Non-morning person) + No nap + 5-mile bike ride

=

DISASTER

But I'm no mathematician.

When did you become a morning person?

What were you doing 'til 1:30??

Hope you are having a rollicking good time with Granny.

Do you still have family here on Oahu? If so, hope they are high and keeping dry since it has been really rainy here...

I've always been a morning person. I've never been a wake-me-up-from-a-nap-prematurely person. And anyway, what would you ztowns know about being a morning person?

Missy, I wish we were doing something to justify staying up that late!

For Manoa Missy: Our family in Hawaii is keeping dry. No one we know has had any bad effects, just bumbed out about all the rain.

For ZTowns: You know you're the night owl and Autumn is the morning person. Or did you forget now that you have to get up early for work?
