The weather has been quite warm this fall, making it feel like late summer rather than November. As I started wearing my sweatpants shorts, which I aptly named my winter shorts, the weather got warmer. Maybe I should keep them out all winter to keep the severe weather away?
Once again, it is time to turn our clocks back one hour. Daylight Saving Time officially ends tomorrow morning, Sunday, November 3, at 2 a.m. Don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour before bedtime tonight.
My friends, and probably especially my wife, aren’t going to believe this. Before I say it, I’ll let you know I am well. Here it is, I think for the first time in my life I am ready for the time change and the cooler and colder weather. I’ve never liked the fall time change because it always brought the cold weather with it. Though it’s warm this year, the cold won’t be far behind. Plus, there isn’t much I can do outside this time of year.
Why am I ready? No, I haven’t hit my head or anything. It’s been a very busy, warm weather season. For some reason, it seems to have been busier than previous years. Mowing, planting, mulching, deadheading, and every other task in the garden has been a blessing from God. I love every second I get outside enjoying His Handiwork in creation. Traditionally, this is the slow-down time of year for me. This year, I am ready.
Do you look forward to the time change? Are there tasks or chores you have planned for the colder weather? If so, share in the comments below.
Don’t forget to change those clocks! Sunday’s coming!
