"Have you forgotten where you are"?
Yep!!! Regularly. For 39 years I've worked a rotating shift work schedule of day's, evening's and nights with my days off changing from some time's every week to usually every 6 weeks. Many a day I've awoke and had to think for a few second's as to why I set the alarm and where do I have to be today? It's happened to me in our RV too! More than once I've awoke to the RV clock radio alarm and found myself not sure of where I am, where we are, and what I'm supposed to be doing. Since the early 60's I've had a recurring nightmare. It seem's to alway's show up when I'm most tired after only a few hours sleep and when I'm close to my day's off. I usually take several seconds to clear the head and know life's still good and where I'm at. I'm wondering if after I retire in 299 more days and we start RV'ing 3/4 time, if I'll still have the same dreaded type nightmare wakeups. It's nice to think that maybe retirement and rv'ing 3/4 time will finally cure the dream. Details to follow!!!
Happy camping!!! See y'all down the road!!!:)
