Don't Forget to Set Your Clocks Forward!


Well it's that time of year again...springing forward.  I've gotten use to the backwards and forwards rhythm.  I think I just don't care anymore so that makes it not so important like it use to be to me.  Who cares if you lose an hour?  Gain an hour?  I think it all comes out in the wash.   I go to bed an hour earlier or to bed an hour later.  Works for me.
We've been getting some much needed rain over the past several days.  It's always nice to get some especially when we're headed into Spring and Summer months.  Texas can never get enough!
I did not take the above photo and don't know who did but I liked it...Screams Spring to me and I'm so ready!  Tired of my feet being cold.  
I did the photo challenges yesterday...I'm glad to see them once again!  Makes me pick up my camera  and begin to think!Hahaaa....pitiful, I know!  But mainly, it introduces you to new faces in blogland who have the same interest as you do!  Photography.  Some people are fluent in photo-speak and some are newbies...doesn't matter though because we all have fun and learn at the same time.  If YOU ever want to join in on the challenges, see my last post and go investigate...you won't be sorry!  By the way, the NEXT Challenge at Donna's, (Her Main Blog) and her (Challenge Blog), Personal Photo Challenge, is entitled,  Simplicity...Due April 13th.... She already has the Challenges listed for the next few months so we can plan for them.  SO!  Get your thinking caps on and prepare.  You can always "schedule" your post, that way you won't forget!
So I guess I'll let you get back to your Sunday doings...Enjoy the day and try picking up that camera...Never know what you might find!    I missed a shot at a robin this morning....Hate when that happens!

Those tupils are very pretty. I love pink!

It's been raining here in MN. for the last 2 days. Helping the snow melt!

I don't mind the time changes anymore either. When it happens it always reminds me of my grandmother. Where she lived in W FLA, the time is one hour earlier than here. She'd ask for the time, and then say "is that my time or your time?" :)

Really enjoy seeing all the photo's in this last round. Kinda neat to have two in one day.

Have a wonderful, blessed day! Glad ya'll are getting rain. We could use some here. Patti and I sat out in the sun yesterday, big mistake; my face is RED today. Just what I needed, more wrinkles.

Love ya!!

Here in NZ we have a few more weeks until we put our clocks back for autumn. Spring is my fav time of year.
Love Leanne

I never mind the time changes either! I especially won't mind it when I have a extra hour of daylight when I get home from work tomorrow!

Ann said...

I can't wait to start seeing tulips again. We've had a couple nice days but cold is headed back our way.

Jenny said...

Tough to get those bird shots sometimes, but sweet when you do. We are about to see an explosion of spring color around here! It will be pretty. Hope your feet have warmed up nicely.

Donna said...

Gosh, I love that plum color! Dee-lish-ush! I am suffering from the time change. Couldn't go to sleep last night. Ugh! I should make up for it tonight, LOL.

Thanks for the plug on the new photo challenge blog! Oh, the next one is so "simple" it's going to be hard! It will sure make everyone think about their subject and background, LOL. It's great fun to share our hobby with others. There were a lot of new faces that showed up, and I got inspired by the different approaches and perspectives.

Wow! I opened your blog and it screamed SPRING at me!! LOVE that you have things all springy over here!! The time change messes me up for about a week...but I think it all evens out anyway...like you said.

Happy Monday!!

Debbie said...

Time change doesn't bother me much anymore either...

When I get all this mess done around the house, I'm going to buy a new camera and get into these challenges because I do love them!! It's just been so hectic around here and my brain can only handle one thing at a time LOL

Well, I remembered to change my clocks. Still don't like it. Ha, ha. Like the fall back but not springing forward. I like my extra hour of sleep because for the life of me I can't make myself go to bed until the time feels right. Lovely photo of pink tulips eve if it isn't yours. :)

Hey I forgot to tell you; I copied the U.S. and prayers on my blog. I love it, and just saw it this morning here. :)

It's nio big deal, except to my wife who is convinced that she will lose an hour of sleep every day until November. :)

Paula said...

I almost forgot about the clocks, Miss Donna... but like you said, I couldn't care less anymore. *haha*
The only thing I like about the change this time of year is the extra hour of daylight in the evening. YAY! Hurry up, Spring!!
((HUGS))

Donna said...

Spring can't come soon enough! Enjoy your week!

That is a GORGEOUS tulip picture! Yes, yay spring!

Unknown said...

I can so relate to missing a wonderful shot of God's creation because I don't have my camera- thanks for sharing the photo of the tulips - I love them but they just don't bloom long enough:-)

Sooooo ready for spring here too, it's just so damn cold all the time. We still have snow lying on the ground. The Cheviot hills are covered like icing. Brrrrr.

I am going to blame my complete lack of energy and my ability to take cat naps a dozen times a day and night to this time change. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
