thoughts on the time change...

the time change is always looked forward to (at least fall back) by me.  the resetting of my internal clock gives me at least three days of mania, during which i get TONS done.  the only problem with this mania, is that it seems that i am the only one that gets it.  or maybe i am the only one that puts it to good use.

this is what my 7 year old daughter said to me today, "wow, mom! today sure has been relaxing and calm!"

what she doesn't see is that while she and her siblings have been playing legos, and cutting little bits of paper, i cleaned out the car, washed and folded three loads of laundry, made my bed and threw all their toys out of my room, cleaned off the table, packed two boxes to ship to my darling (and sorely missed) husband, taken care of correspondence (ok. facebook) and made plans for a movie matinee, changed all the towels, found two knitting patterns, and organized my knitting needles and UFOs, and made note that i need some new cables, and some size 5s.  i have also cleaned up the front room, and put away my store of pumpkin butter, and folded up my reusable bags.  have i mentioned i left my bed at 8 and it is only 1130?  so, yeah, i think the mania is here for a bit.  i hope it doesn't leave me drained.  for the rest of the day, all i have planned is to eat some food, and maybe hit the craft store... lets see if i can stick to that...
