The day starts with the knowledge that I get an extra hour!
I spend most of the day on the couch in my PJ's finishing grading for report cards and conferences.
The laundry machines swish and rumble in the back hall.
When I finally do take a shower, I decide to clean it at the same time and run out of hot water before I finish my own shower.
Because it's a lazy Sunday, left over crock pot lasagna is on the menu tonight for dinner.
Maybe it isn't so lazy today... Ed's outside on the roof of the garage winterizing it.
Probably I should go out and check on him to make sure he's OK...
The bad thing about this "falling back" business is that it's already getting dark and it's only 3:00.

Mama Kat has a great weekly post called "Mama Kat's Pretty Much World Famous Writer's Workshop". You can see it here.
One of her prompts was to make a list of twenty-two things that you've done in your life thus far. Here's mine:

21. Buried four grandparents.
20. Rode 1200 miles on my motorcycle, in Canada, in 4 days.
19. Got my first speeding ticket in Canada, on my motorcycle, when I wasn't even speeding. (Who is going to argue with the Canadian Mounted Police?)
18. Buried three of our own pets.
17. Got married the day before I turned 22.
16. Worked in a dentist office as a dental assistant.
