Kate introduced a new bit of nomenclature into our household: \u00a0Central Dog Time or CDT. \u00a0Dogs are creatures of habit, especially when it concerns getting up, going to bed and eating.<\/p>\n
So are we, come to think of it. \u00a0Skype calls with my far-ranging sibs prove that point. \u00a0In order to connect on Riyadh time, 5:00 pm and Singapore time, 10:00 pm, I have to initiate our twice a month calls at 9:00 am Andover time. \u00a0Last week I came downstairs, fired up Skype and neither Mary nor Mark were online. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because it was 6:00 pm in Riyadh and 11:00 pm in Singapore. \u00a0I hadn’t shifted my time back to Standard.<\/p>\n
CDT operates on the same principle, but explaining the shifted time is much harder. \u00a0In effect the dogs have to be retrained to eat and go to bed an hour later. \u00a0Then, do the same thing again, backwards, in the spring. \u00a0Well, we decided to run our house on CDT, at least as it comes to canines. \u00a0We’re doing things on CDT year round now. \u00a0Much simpler for everybody.<\/p>\n
