I intended to have a good breakfast this morning but I slept in--almost to lunch time. I then helped install MD's new life alert update, which was fun but pushed out any breakfast plans. Settled for a latte and a pastry instead--which is something I need to stop doing. I must eat solid meals for breakfast and lunch, minimum.

The day was a mush from that point onward. I managed to run a few errands (TJ's, banking, shopping for some new shirts, pick up water) and spend some time with grandkid, ex, and daughter's tasty dinner.

It's already late in the evening--how time flies when you are spacing out.

I also solved a clock puzzle that MD was having. She noticed that her bedroom clock seemed to be moving faster than her new office clock. I looked at the two clocks and couldn't figure out the set of adjustment buttons that operated the electric bedroom clock. After fiddling around with it for some time, I finally just synced the two clocks and let them run for a while. When I checked back on their progress, I discovered that the new clock hadn't moved--it was not running.

Turned out that the new clock's battery had expired! It was going slower than the bedroom clock--not the other way around! Duh! I replaced the battery and, voila, their times remained the same. Double duh! Talk about time and relativity--what an example. For MD, the new clock was "new" so the old clock had to going faster--which was not the case. I didn't question her assumption--but a moment's reflection exposes the real problem of the "new" clock.

Or perhaps, the new "cluck"--my brain is not on track anymore.
