Daylight

I like having more daylight. Daylight is wonderful stuff and makes me feel good. We've had lots of good, sunny daylight for a couple of weeks now. Mornings are bright and afternoons extend into evening. I really, really like this season.

Now, here comes Daylight Saving Time! This is it! This is the weekend we set our clocks forward (Spring forward!) (Who will be the one to walk into church just as the last hymn is being introduced? It happens every year.)

I'm reading that in fact this exercise really is a little like self-imposed jet lag. The whole population feels just a bit slower, groggier for a couple of days. British Columbia offers a list of safer driving tips for drivers to remember while
suffering the effects of the time change next week!

So I guess it's reasonable to nod off in church this Sunday. If you're the speaker you might want to ratchet up your energy levels, or be prepared to realize it's not your fault; we're all just a bit sleepy today.

OK, that's your reminder: Don't forget to change your clocks! Daylight Saving Time is here.
