The Double Digit Rule



When Conner was in college, her friends created the Double Digit Rule--just for her.  No matter what was going on or how loud it got, she needed to go to bed during the early double digit hours--10.30-11.00pm.  Her friends partied until 2-3am.  She woke up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed in the early am hours whereas her friends wanted to sleep in, hence, the Double Digit Rule.  She was not allowed to bother anyone until at least 10am.  She couldn't crawl into bed with her friends.  She couldn't bang around in the kitchen.  She had to keep quiet, which she admits was a very difficult feat (Chatty Cathy, that one).  I love her to bits and I can totally image it was a struggle to keep quiet during those quiet, early morning hours...
