Don't forget to spring forward, if it affects you where you live! I know it does here! I wasn't thinking about it since it doesn't feel like April anymore!

well end of daylight savings for us on this side of the world. Once when I didnt have a baby, the end of daylight savings meant an extra hour sleep in - this morning it meant I had to get up an hour early as Jasmine didnt understand the 'sleep an extra hour' rule

Now to find the directions on how to change the time on my alarm clock-I was hoping it would have been one of those that changed automatically.

Ughhhh.... "spring forward", huh?? Yep I know I've heard that before, but how are we supposed to have enough energy to "spring" if we've lost an hour of sleep ?

Bah Humbug on Daylight Savings Time. It makes me lose an hour of daylight, because I work the Graveyard Shift. I won't get to enjoy the sunrise anymore. Now, it will be dark at 5:30am. I don't see why we have to have it.

According to my husband... the zoo
haha - I thought about it all day yesterday, but forgot when we went to bed last night.


Today both of our kids were coming over for lunch at 11:00. My daughter got here at 9, and was taking a shower - I was just sitting around waiting for her to get out so she could go to the store with me (for some last minute things). Then... I realized it wasn't 9:15, it was 10:15!!! Yikes!


I flew to the store and back (not literally!) and got lunch on the table just in time.

That was the first time in a long time all 4 of us have been together at the same time... the worst part about empty nesting.

Ya! I like it when it stays light out longer though. Its less... oppresive somehow. I love summer when it's light out til like 9 at night.

I really don't like this daylight savings time stuff - its 11PM and I'm wide awake, still thinking its 10PM - ack! I'm going to be tired in the AM!
