Our mornings are so dark and dreary these days.  I can’t wait to get back on standard time again.  When it’s this dark, I don’t even feel like getting out of bed.  I know that it will be dark earlier in the evening, but I prefer to have the daylight in the morning myself.  That will happen this Sunday.  This morning is beginning with a few sprinkles, giving us a trace of rain so far.  We have an 80% chance of rain in the forecast so I’m expecting a wet day.  I have a few appointments today so I better take my umbrella.
