Just now turned my wristwatch ahead an hour. I'd not done it last night so as to pretend that I had more time. It was so silly---last evening, as I was gathering up my nightgown, etc. for a shower, told the kids who were still up that I needed to hurry and get to bed since we were losing an hour. Then I stopped and realized that since we'd gone to church last night, there was no need to set the alarm for this morning. I was getting all het about the dogs waking up an hour early. Talk about fretting for nothing. By my watch (not set ahead), the dogs woke up at the regular time. I can torment myself so easily.
Hoping for a relaxing day today. The sky is thickly overcast and rain is on the way. The temperatures are to be in the seventies for a few days, and Spring is definitely here. Have to expect some freezing still until mid-April though. Saw a man putting out begonias the other day, and wanted to caution him. He'll have to baby those tiny plants for a few weeks, covering them at night when we still have frost, perhaps----it's not safe out there yet!
The house still sleeps (quiet is such a wonderful thing!), one son has the stomach virus (he had to stay home last night), and while everyone hasn't gotten sick, the majority have. Must get out the Clorox spray and go around the house before everyone gets to moving around. So hard to keep ahead of sickness sometimes, and it feels like we've had our share this Winter. Must air out the house today.
Enjoy yours!
