Today, I am grateful that I live in the Eastern time zone! While I do wish I was in Idaho a lot of the time right now it really is a blessing to be two hours ahead of Idaho and in effect Mountain Time.
Luckily, while doing online schooling through BYU-Idaho all of my assignments are due according to Mountain Time and since I am on Eastern Time it gives me two extra hours past the normal hours of my day to get things in on time. Not only that but when I wake up at 7 or 8 am Eastern Time it is still only 6 or 7 Mountain Time so I am up earlier and I can stay up later if needed to finish my assignments while still having the opportunity to not worry about my assignments while cooking dinner or such. I try not to wait until later in the day to get all my assignments done and I also try to be in bed by 11:00 pm but if I can't fit it all in I love those two extra hours to finish what I need.
Some nights I end up feeling like I'm going to do this...

...but I still, sincerely count this a tender mercy in my life right now!
