Yesterday the time change didn’t seem to have any impact on me. Today, however, it is playing havoc with my internal clock. A meeting went late, I had emails to write before I left school, and I arrived home still needing my walk. Luckily, the time change meant the walk was lovely, still bright and sunny out rather than in the shadowy dusk.

All that pushed dinner late, along with a fun phone call with my son and grandsons. It feels like it’s 6pm, but the clock is telling me something different. Will I get all my “stuff” done and still get to bed at a reasonable hour so that tomorrow will allow me to be well-rested and at my best?

I don’t know if that will work out. But back to that walk…it is wonderful taking a sunlit walk in the evening. I was drawn to the trees (probably related to some tree study I did with students today–more about that later). And they were showing off their new spring finery…and we’re still over a week away from the official start of spring.

So, while my body tries to adjust to clocks, I will enjoy the trees. I hope you do too.
