We Survived!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a beautiful message up there on the DST ticker - "Don't forget to set your clocks back tonight!" Don't you worry, baby. Don't have to tell me twice.

I celebrated my last day of this ridiculousness by sleeping in until 11. I intended to get up at 9, but it was a rough night, thanks to this stupid cough. Since my list of chores today didn't have any particular time attached, I decided to not stress out about being up at 9 and went back to sleep.

Today was very busy. Starting next weekend, the holiday rush begins, so I enjoyed this one last uninterrupted Saturday to do chores around the house. I used my new toy (thank you Mom and Dad!) of a leaf blower/vac to work on my yard. Best invention EVER. I planted the mum I won at the church dinner a couple of weeks ago. I cleaned out the fridge (nasty job) and took out the trash promptly afterwards. I bought new workout shoes, as my old ones have many miles on them and are starting to get thin on the bottom. I stopped by the bookstore sale and had my free cup of coffee and used my coupon on a new book. Oh - and I enjoyed probably my last exercise outside until spring. It was too beautiful a day to let that pass.

So now I've just had my little dinner and I'm about to clean the house and CHANGE THE CLOCKS!

This is the best weekend EVER.

And you're unscathed! The only thing that stinks for me is that my kids will still be up early--6 tomorrow instead of their normal 7. And I have to get up at 5 to talk to Barry via webcam. I guess it really doesn't matter, since the inconvience is definitely worth it--the sun goes down at 6 instead of 7. So maybe it'll start feeling like fall here. :) Enjoy the end of the DST season!

Amy - I hadn't even thought about kids not adjusting. Bummer!

Sarah - But you're ahead of me! your cards are done.

Nutz - I"m sorry. :( i don't like the dark evenings, but I'm so into the sleep that I don't even care.

DON'T GET SICK. You'll hate it.
