Coffee anyone ?

[Baymule]

Thanks for the coffee PA. Rain and thunderstorms are on the way here. Trip came to the window on the porch, peering in at me. So I let the big scaredy cat in. He brought Carson along with him. I guess I'll do chores late today and work on all my receipts for filing taxes. We have an appointment Monday, so I gotta get busy. LOL Going to go get pigs tomorrow morning. I'll get the Cornish chicks off the porch and into the chicken tractor this weekend, got another batch coming March 24. Got to build another chicken tractor for them. Might get another steer in the fall, haven't even got the meat from Goldie yet, already talking about another steer.

Hello everyone. I've just joined and haven't found a way to introduce myself yet, so thought I would be cheeky and come in here for a quick coffee.

Welcome, Marie2020! Wait- dont I know you from one of the sister sites?

@Bruce unfortunately Indiana has been following DST for around 10? Years..... I did not vote for it but we all knows how that goes. We are in Eastern time. Next county north and west are the start of central. We have to lock our cells onto eastern or they change time zones. Has even happened in our current home which is about 15 miles from the line.

That must be annoying about the cell phones.

One thing I am glad about, though, is to live on the western edge of a time zone. I’m sorry, but I really hate when it gets dark early. In Chicago in the winter it’s getting dark out at 4:30 pm. Here, some of our school busses are still delivering kids at that time!!

The other day my DH mentioned they are proposing to just move to Daylight Savings Time year round. That would make me happy, and maybe it would make all the people who hate changing their clocks happy. Of course, you can’t make everybody happy, so I suppose there would be those who grouse about them choosing DST over regular time.

:Lol my wife does the same every night.

I used to program my coffeemaker before bed. But I found that the smell of the coffee grounds, and having it on my mind that the coffee would be ready when I woke up, caused me to have trouble sleeping. So I stopped doing that.

Yes finny, you will have seen me on all of the sister sites. @Nifty has done an incredible job keeping us all together. Thanks nifty

Thanks to you all for accepting this newby in here. It's very much appreciated

Now for the important part, coffee I really would like to try this golfers mentioned above

My mistake!!! I guess it is now only Arizona and Hawaii (and some "territories").

coffee I really would like to try this golfers mentioned above

"golfers"

I'm not sure any golfers would like to be ground up and put in a coffee pot!

And the spelling "fixer" breaks it again!

Morning all, nice to meet yall, been cleaning this morning, need to milk and feed up. And also hit the grocery store and also some other errands today. And somewhere in there need to get school done. ... next weekend hopefully we get to go fishing. I hoping to finish the animals yards and get everyone moved and get the garden finished this weekend. DH is taking off four days atleast he said he taking off Thursday and Friday and he doesn't work Sunday so Saturdays the only possible work day with that. So hoping when he not busy I can use him. Lots to get done lol. Our pig may looks like she had milk hoping for piglets seriously hoping for piglets.

Good morning all. We got another 3/4" of rain last night. Keeping everything good and soaked.

I used to program my coffeemaker before bed. But I found that the smell of the coffee grounds, and having it on my mind that the coffee would be ready when I woke up, caused me to have trouble sleeping. So I stopped doing that.

I still do when I'm working steady. It's why I set my alarm for 5.10 instead of 5am. It's easier to set it late than push the minute 50 times on the coffee pot.

Why would we want to go to DST... when the REAL time is STANDARD TIME. Why not just make it real time like it is supposed to be. I hate DST

 

[CLSranch]

I don't know why they kept doing the DST there is the same amount of daylight no matter what the clock says. I used to be good at just going to bed earlier in the winter. (Lately I've been staying up hours later than normal) I've worked some jobs that when it gets hot we start at 6 instead of 7. Working around the house or other ranch work sunup is sunup. Working in an office well they have lights so again what difference does it make.

 

[Alaskan]

True... I remember working in South Texas... didn't matter what the clock said... when it got light enough to work... you worked... when you felt your brain about to fry, you stopped to eat lunch and put your feet up for a couple of hours... then you went back out and worked until dark.

 

[Alaskan]

Oh.. and I think Alaska is supposed to be 3 different time zones... but luckily decided that was stupid, so all of Alaska follows the time zone of the capital... which is on the east edge.... so the rest of us are "off" .

But ya know what... no one cares.
