Opus 2016-62: In the Fullness of Time

I am finding myself using a boat load of timers.

It started with timing my 20 minute steel cut oats and 40 minute brown rice.  From there it has branched out as far as my imagination will take it.

I often need to do something in five minutes and figure I will remember.  An hour later I notice that the dryer is still running.  I keep telling myself I don’t need timers but my inner clock isn’t listening. 

And my lazy gene kicks in.  I know it doesn’t take much energy to push a button but lazy has no limitations.  I have separate timers preset at 5, 10 and 20 minutes.  If I ever find a need for 15 I will set one for that also.

It makes me wonder how anyone gets anything done in the third world.
