I'm having a very unproductive week myself....finding that I'm so distracted and drifting off at odd times. My cat is even grouchy! PS I wouldn't want to be scheduled for morning surgery this week!

I'd rather have my hour of sleep back :) And yes, above all, God in His infinite wisdom made the days perfect.

I guess so that we can go to sleep.<br /><br />As for controlling time ... did you know that to God time is limitless. It says in the Bible that a day is like 1000 years to Him. Which must have made it difficult for Moses: "Do you want me to go up the mountain for the Commandments tomorrow, or in a 1000 years, God?"<br /><br />Apparently Moses was slightly deaf. He went up the mountain and asked for ten condiments.<br /><br />We still haven't got DST over here. It will be in a few weeks time - March 30 - when we put the clocks forwards. I normally nail them and sellotape them to the wall so they don't move at all. My watch runs away from me though!<br /><br />God bless. <br />Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4449799335048031917.post-22313728069543746952014-03-09T17:37:40.467-04:002014-03-09T17:37:40.467-04:00Yeah, I think you made that pretty clear :) If it&...Yeah, I think you made that pretty clear :) If it's any consolation, it will take me until fall to get in the sink.
