Internal Clock needs a reset

My alarm clock didn't go off this morning. This doesn't mean much, as K's did.
So, I was up at 5:30 a.m. and decided I might as well get my day started.
My first task after a breakfast of biscuits and gravy (leftover from Sunday) was to create a daily task list. So far, it has 15 items on it, many of them repeating daily. I've been able to check off 3 so far. At least most of them involve writing and marketing. Some involve housekeeping or the dogs.
As the morning progressed, I added items to the list. Some repeat daily, some weekly. Some are one-time things.
At the rate the list is growing, I may have to continue getting up at 5:30 in the morning just to get it all done.
How did or is your Tuesday going so far?

You may not feel like you have retired yet! Staying busy is, I guess, is good for us anyway. Probably not for someone who has worked as long and hard as you, but still…
I’m currently in the waiting room for one of my doctors. Exciting times! I expect a medication change, and then I’ll be out of here in no time.

Boy, that sounds like a lotta work, you need a break from thinking up all of that.
Thankfully I'm retired so lists aren't needed anymore. The kritters let me know when to get up and sometimes they're roughhousing at 3am so I end up watching TV long enough for it to lull me back to sleep.

I’m at the car dealership, getting my oil changed and tires rotated. I’ve had a boring lunch at Subway, and after this I may boogie down to Fort Knox for a while. Or just go home because it’s so dang smoky out there.

@DWDavis — not unless they burn all of Canada and 3/4 of the US.

@FourWalls I thought there were wildfires in Kentucky that you might be getting smoke from.

Those to-do lists never end. Tuesday was OK. Quiet and uneventful.

So far so good, so far just cat feeding, a bit of toilet cleaning, breakfast and mylotting. Can't complain! Oh I forgot, took a brief survey for 2 bucks which I have already been paid for, so all good.

My Tuesday started early as well. I actually fell asleep at 1am and woke up at 6. My morning was quite busy coz I bathe the three puppies and groomed them. And then I crocheted a baby romper which I'm not done yet.

@DWDavis True. Fortunately, my two lovely dogs who sleep with me don't wake up early. They could sleep until 8am. But I have three puppies ,oh just two now coz one was rehomed yesterday.

I love making lists and checking off stuff as it gets done. 
I break tasks down into smaller chunks so I have lots of things to check off.
