First day back

This will be the first day back after setting the clocks forward. We shall see how it affects the kids.
Today it is trash day, so I need to finish that. I need to also pack a lunch.
My computer time will likely be paying the bills this morning.
Our forecast is for beautiful weather, if I just pack a sandwich I may sit in the car to eat.
I have read and commented on a discussion or two, so that is good but it may be all I get done.
I hope today is a marvelous Monday for you.

It was very warm here on Monday. Not like March at all.

Yes, we had some really warm days. I think for the kids especially, that warmth and sunshine helps with the time change.

I think we should all make a point to enjoy every good day.

@GardenGerty I agree with you. Life is so short as it is.

I imagine where you are it was a warm rain, or at least not cold like Kansas.

@GardenGerty Indeed! What we consider cold here is wha you call warm there.

@GardenGerty Thanks. Finding a parking spot was a bit tricky but we managed.

I am doing the best I can to enjoy losing an hour of sleep when the clocks moved forward on Saturday evening.

Sometimes we have to just make the best of it.

The kids with asthma and allergies are struggling because of the warmth. It is hard to determine what all affects the kids.

I am glad you got to enjoy the gorgeous days. We had a few as well, then the bottom dropped out with wind and cold. I am back to my body waking up early.

Have a good one! Happy Monday. Weird I didn't even hear the school bus go by this morning. I must have been sawing logs.

I hope everything goes well for you today.
We're supposed to have beautiful weather today, too. A strong breeze but the temp is supposed to reach 76F by this afternoon.

@GardenGerty We're still below freezing. At least the snow is disappearing now.

Of course not. Some of them even look like little raccoons. One girl (6 yrs.old) told me she did not go to bed she just stayed up "goofing around".

It takes me a few days to readjust to the new time.

It's been getting beautiful in the afternoons here. Saturday was the only really rainy day. Hubby is back to work today and I have so much to do I'm kind of wandering lol.
Have a great day!

When I am at home wandering seems to describe me well.

If I did not have to DO anything or be anywhere I think it would be easier. I am back to driving in as the sun is barely breaking through.
