New Team Member

We have a new team member arriving at midnight tonight, Thailand time. Her name is Carolyn Chambers. Everyone from the US that comes to Thailand usually comes at midnight. It makes for a long day the next day because the airport is an hour and a half away and by the time the person gets through customs and we get home, it is at least 2 AM. We, who live here, will be very tired tomorrow morning and she will be either one of two things. She will either be wide awake at 4 AM, unable to go to sleep or we won't be able to rouse her from a zombie/coma state for 24 hours. And you never know in advance how jet lag is going to affect someone. I personally think that the Jews had it right by changing the day at 6 AM. That makes more sense than changing days in the middle of night. The new day beginning at night? It just doesn't make sense. If anybody knows who changed it and messed things up, please tell me. I have wondered for years who and why they did that. Daylight savings time is also very presumptuous. I think they should let God decide what time the sun comes up:)
