I stumbled across a groundhog in my driveway this morning while bringing in some laundry. Cute little fella(?) froze, then scampered across the street into a neighbor's yard. I hope the local cats aren't a problem for it.
In related news, I've abandoned the idea of growing cucumbers or other vegetables in a backyard garden. The groundhogs are welcome to all the wild strawberries they want to eat, however.
but it is VERY HARD to remember that when it is early
It's so annoying that this is so true.
Wild strawberries! Cool.
I basically always feel better about life if I get up and out the door early, but it is VERY HARD to remember that when it is early.
The problem is that the feeling better about life doesn't kick in until AFTER you get up and do the moving-around thing, which is hard to convince yourself of from the comfortable position of staying in bed.
Also, now that I know it's called hurkle-durkling, lying around in bed is even more appealling!

I have been up and about and working and so forth for hours today and I would love to go back to lying around in bed as soon as possible

NO. The nocturnal/delayed sleep phase disorder side of the house says NO.
(Guess who now has a migraine from getting up way too early?)
Groundhogs are pretty good in a scrap, they just look waddly and slow. And most cats are smart enough to leave alone anything that weighs as much as them, at least as prey.
At least one groundhog, but probably more, lives under the porch of the house across the street. One day when I was backing in to our driveway, I noticed this little face watching me park, with the most judgmental expression you can imagine. I feel like if that groundhog could have asked to see the manager about my parking job, it would have.
Don't park angry, Tep
Too obscure a reference? Feels obscure
It is time for me to go home! Hurkle-durkling in my future!
Have I mentioned that work has decided we (salaried employees) need to be in the office 9 hours a day? Half hour for lunch and a half an hour sprinkled throughout the day getting coffee or what not assumed. I am extremely irritated about it and trying not complain to everyone too much but I don't think I've actually mentioned it here.
