I wrote a lengthy piece yesterday about daylight savings, but how could I forget the most important part? This was always the day (back when it happened in April) that my grandmother and I would rejoice over. We visited her on Sundays, and this was one Sunday we tried to always celebrate together. If I didn't make it to her home, we would talk about it over the phone, the novelty of it staying light out after 7pm. I know Grammy is thinking about this from her most comfortable cloud up there, and smiling.
As far as this year goes, I stayed up too late last night because of the time change, and in turn should have set my alarm so I wouldn't oversleep today. That's one thing I really dislike about daylight savings-the time I lose at night, it just goes too quickly! In reality, if you aren't paying attention to what time it is, you really won't even know there's a difference at all. Unfortunately, I do have to watch the time, so it does matter. But it will all blow over in a few days.
Wherever you are, have a good night! This is a sunset from Old Orchard Beach a couple of years ago.
