Saving Daylight?

 

Grocery store daffodils and shamrocks decorate my table. We're already well into March. Daylight Saving time has happened. Are we saving any daylight, or just moving it around? In a few days our sleep patterns will even out, but so far the cloudy skies haven't given us much evening light. The time change will stay, though, because we are pretty evenly divided about which way to change it, stay with standard time or spring ahead. Apparently even the President has stopped campaigning about it. 

Wood splitting continues at a slower pace here as other obligations occur. Sounders Socer season is now well under way. Tom and Jake went to a match last Wednesday and Tom and Jill went on Saturday. I enjoy watching from the comfort of home. 

I fell doing PT Saturday morning and landed hard on my bum and my elbow. When you have a metal hip joint, you bruise from the inside out. I have been sitting on an ice pack several times a day. My elbow is also very sore, but both are getting better and fortunately I did not land on my knee. No real damage was done. I will not be doing that backwards line walking exercise without a spotter for now. My balance is still very bad and I think it always will be. All the various specialists don't have a reason for it. 

Now the last load of laundry is calling me, and then it's time for another round of PT. It isn't raining so I might have time for some outside walking in the yard and up and down the driveway. So goes my daily life.
