Time Change

All of our clocks "fell back" one hour today, as daylight saving time ends. Many of our devices are smart and make the change automatically, like our laptops and smart phones and DVR. So far the microwave and coffee pot are not connected to the internet, so they have to be manually adjusted. My pedometer and small bedside clock and the truck clock also require manual adjustments.

I guess we will also require some adjustments. My body clocks will take a few days to get back in sync with the external clocks. Even turning the clocks back is enough to give me some bit of jet lag for a few days. I'm just not prepared for it to get dark so early. Where has the day gone? It's all downhill from here until the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year.

The time change also announces a change in our life style. Our summer wanderings are over, and we'll be settled in our winter home. Square dancing begins tomorrow. Yay!

We did get outside for our walks today, but the evening walk was in complete darkness. We did take advantage of a sunny afternoon to go soak in the hot tub and relax around the pool.
