Late start

I set my alarm for 7 this morning to give myself an extra hour sleep but ended up not getting out of bed until 10:10. It’s now 11 and I’m drinking coffee on the couch. Not only did I miss class but I’m four hours behind schedule which means requirements will cut into family time. My body hit a wall and needed some extra sleep. It happens. I will adjust the day and do what I need to do (which includes cutting my two foot neglected grass). And did I mention I’m sore today.
