How was your weekend? I don’t have anything deep to discuss today, or not right now at least. Tomorrow we can talk about Obama reversing Bush’s stem cell research bill or the fact that a tornado touched down in Indiana where many of my loved ones are or the fact that Circuit City is about to lay off 34,000 people (in case you think I made a mistake let me spell it out, thirty four thousand!).  Nah, let’s not talk about any of those things this morning. I’m still sleepy. Why you may ask?  COULD IT BE THIS TIME CHANGE!

Forgive me for getting so bent out of shape but check this out. Last week I was wearing sunglasses to work! The babies (well, teenagers) that were standing on the corner waiting on the school bus looked safe. I could see all the soldiers running in the street beside my car doing their morning PT as I drove by. All was good! Today, I kid you not; it was pitch black! There was no way I could wear my sunglasses, the babies didn’t seem safe out there waiting on the school bus and I got right upon a running soldier before I could see him! I fretted about that one. He happened to be on the other side of the street but what if he had been on my side?

Here’s the thing, I’m not a farmer and I don’t rely on daylight to help me make a living.  For them, I’m glad they have that hour.  All that extra hour of daylight is going to do for me is keep me outside with my flowers until 10:00 pm instead of 9:00 pm and cut down on my “good for my health” sleep time! Ocassionally, I am sleepy by eight o’clock at night. And when I am, I go to sleep. Now I will be going to sleep when it is still light outside?!

Before long it will be daylight at 5:30 am and stay light until 9:30 pm. I don’t know about you but once it is light outside, I am awake. So I’m going to have to learn to sleep within the parameters of those dark eight hours and live life the other sixteen!

Holla back and tell me how you did with the time change and if you are little sleepy today! Still…it is a Marvelous Monday!
