It is officially 4:40 a.m. Daylight savings's time went into effect at midnight, and all last week, everyone at work was all excited about getting that extra hour of sleep.
So...where is it?
My eyes flew open at 4 a.m. Coot sensed it, and as she is a cat and knows nothing of clocks and rules to govern daylight, she urged me to get out of bed to open her breakfast can of little friskie's. Immediately. And while I was up, well..heck. Might as well make coffee - Maxwell House Bold, and might as well see what's on TV (The Andy Griffith Show), and might as well see what's in the news...
It's a good thing, though, to be up this early. I will see first hand around what time the sun actually comes up. After all these years of setting the clock back and forward, it still confuses me. The only thing I'm sure of is, it will be dark shortly after getting off work, so it's a mad rush to get everything done that needs doing because chickens have the right idea - when it's dark, all work and clucking comes to a screeching halt, and does not resume until either day comes, or you just can't sit still anymore.
Have a lovely Sunday.

I was up before the sun as usual too. The hard part will be going to bed earlier. The clocks will be saying it's time to go, our bodies will be telling us we can't sleep for another hour -- this is where it will start knocking us off balance so we are all exhausted all week. Nobody will get it because we are supposed to be getting an extra hour of sleep, LOL!
Hope you have a nice day today too. Martha :-)
I wish they would just leave the time one way or the other. Good Sunday to you. Paula
I agree with the chickens, too!
