What was that, an indoor tornado? It’s remarkable that pure wind power is strong enough to blow Calvin’s shirt and socks off and even send a 10 pound rug flying through the air, but yet it couldn’t blow the parachute shaped lampshade off the top of the lamp! Someone, please get me the name of that remarkable lamp manufacturer!
Today is Mothering Sunday here in the UK so it’s appropriate that Mom is in today’s strip. Mothering Sunday is the third Sunday before Easter Sunday by the UK calendar.
I’ve had similar dreams. I hate that stupid dream where I get up and fall out of bed only to snap awake and realize I’m still in bed, over and over again. …also the radio, or TV, that I can’t shut off.
Breathe deep the gathering gloom,Watch lights fade from every room.Bedsitter people look back and lament,Another day’s useless energy spent.Moody Blues.I wish they would have written:Another day’s energy uselessly spent.

The bed beckons every time of the day, especially when someone wants to annoy you nonstop.

I’m long retired, but I still get up hours before daybreak.
Some pretty good TV shows on at the wee small hours—especially on MeTV.

@dadthedawg- I know what you mean. Fortunately I’m retired now and I don’t have to be bothered getting up at 4 a.m. everyday!

Calvin most adults feel the same way when getting up in morning for work, retired do what they want.
