Yepper,
The days start gittin longer in about 3 days
I'm really lookin forward to those longer days even if it's only by a minute a day, it's still longer than the day before
These short days drive me nuts.
Are you a day person too?
As JJ pointed out there will always be 24 hours in a day BUTT the nites will be shorter startin in 3 days

I don't think I would want snow, it snowed a little in 2015 and that's enough to last me for decades.

That is one of the things I love about where we are in Florida, it is that much farther west in the Eastern time zone that the days are a lot longer than they are here in CT where it starts getting dark about 5 p.m.

It's the mountain time zone here @BelleStarr I think that puts me 2 hours behind you, right?
It's 9:22am right now.

@rebelann CT is more on the eastern edge of the Eastern Time Zone, Ocala is much further west in the Eastern time zone. Are you in the Central Time Zone or Rocky Mountian, you are at least a couple hours different in time from us.

it doesn't matter to me either way,but i'm in a time change zone-that's what disorients me.not to mention all the clocks i got to keep moving back and forward in the house seasonally.

I believe we might notice a slight difference tomorrow depending on where you live.

@rebelann I think its sentiment that gets me enjoying Christmas. For sure the Solstice is huge for me. I plan to light an old oil lamp Thursday night. I admire the folks who have the fortitude to sit up outside all night, waiting for the sunrise. Such beauty there. Spiritual in a deep way.

I just don't want summer to come back, so I like for the short days to stay here.

If you mean places like Ft Worth, Dallas or San Antonio then yeah, they get the worst kinda humidity @misunderstood_zombie here though it's a dry heat but still hot.

I like early mornings too. Right now my body is totally confused, it wants to hibernate.

We are really looking forward to those longer days too.
The early darkness is no fun for us. We start work in the dark and it is dark again when we are done!

I remember those depressing work days, it's always a bummer when the job requires staying indoors and if you dare go outside where you work it's likely to be mostly citified pollution.
Thank heavens I'm retired.
