This week, besides the Christmas feast, I look forward to Winter Solstice on Wednesday and the slow reversal of the terribly short days. This barely seven hours of daylight thing doesn't work for me, to be honest. Yesterday, I told my husband I guessed Vikings had no use for Roman sundials as they wouldn't be good for much. We went down a rabbit hole of speculation on how Vikings told time and whether time accuracy mattered at all in the ancient world. We're a wild and crazy couple. 🤣
@AmaryllisLanza Time is a funny thing. George Carlin did a great skit about time. He definitely was wild & crazy. Miss him. I wanted to post link, but i cant seem to figure out how to paste it here (on my kindle)
@Gardenthymeherbs I agree. Time is a funny thing—stretchy and a bit gooey—like saltwater taffy. Maybe we all live in a candymaker's concession stand on the boardwalk at the seashore of a giant cosmic beach? I love George Carlin! I'll look up that skit on Google. Thanks for the recommendation!
