SOL 9/31 - Day Light Saving Time

It started yesterday.

It will take my internal body clock days to get accustomed to it.
I am an early riser and it was nice that the sun would rise shortly after I did.

Not yesterday.  Max & I walked in the dark.  It was eerie.  The birds weren't even awake.
And it was almost 7:00 a.m.

When we left for church, the moon was still bright and high in the sky. I told hubby that no one informed the moon that the time changed.

Then I thought about it:

God created the sun and moon

Man created Daylight Savings Time

 Go figure

    Too cute, "No one informed the moon that the time changed." :)

    Oh so ironic. I love that Mom. Man going and screwing things up again, right? Just leave it to God and stop with Daylight Savings Time!

    Well played.

    I am a morning person and always have a hard time with this time change.

    "God created the sun and moon

    Man created Daylight Savings Time"

    Well said.

    True that Judy! Why we still have DLS time is mind boggling to me! Once again "man" messes something up :-)

    In defense of DST, I do like the fact that it it still light at 7:00. Makes me feel like I want to keep doing something and not just sit around waiting for bedtime.

    I love this post. I am not a fan of daylight savings time. Now we go to school in the dark. Since I am not a morning person, it helps me to have those daylight hours in the morning and not in the evening.

    Time change is always and adjustment. Loved your observation at the end.

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014

Tuesday SOL - 9/25/12 - A New Beginning for a Special Couple

Image
Several weeks ago we were invited to a wedding for two very dear friends.  What a special occasion it was!  This is the second marriage for both of them and they are in their early 70's.  But, before telling you about the wedding, you need to know "the rest of the story". Jeannie's husband died about 10 years ago from heart related problems.  Several years after his death, she was involved in a terrible automobile accident and was never expected to walk again.  But through sheer determination (and the help of God) she walks without the aid of crutches.  At this point she really didn't have God in her life and I'm not sure at what point she found God (or more than likely, God found her).  She always asked God to find her that special man who had faith, was kind, had a great sense of humor and who loved her. Along came Richard.  His wife died about 5 years ago, also to heart related problems.  They "knew" each other through church, Bible ...
