I love the light.

Daylight savings time came upon us w/ not a minute to spare. That is, I was ready! The first two weeks are tough though. I was struggling. I did NOT want to get up. It felt too early.
I got my bearings now. I am getting up and rolling. I know we spring forward only an hour but boy does it feel like 90 minutes. I look outside and have to remember that, yes I really do have more time...
to run
to go to the laundry and throw some clothes in
to head to Trader Joe's and get back before dark
The other thing that catches me off guard is the length of time it takes to get dark when the sun begins to go down.
During the winter, it's like a race. When the sun begins to go down, it's as if it is racing to the horizon. It's so quick. But when the spring equinox begins, the sun begins to lazily fall behind the horizon. She saunters to her slumber. It makes watching sunsets to glorious.
I will relish this time. June 21st will come inevitably and we will begin this dance all over again.
