RAINY FIRST DAY OF DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME

A rainy cool morning on the first morning of daylight savings time is a bit cruel !!!
Hubbie and I both got up later than usual according to the clock anyway.
I did the chores while he got some corn on the cob started cooking for lunch and shredded the chicken breast that had cooked all night in the crockpot.
I had a quick breakfast bar and cup of coffee then added rice to the crockpot and put carrots in the pressure pot with brown sugar, honey and butter.
We were late getting to church but we made it .
After church we had #1 son, g-son and Aa's family for lunch .
The rice didn't cook completely in the crockpot and I had to put it in a big pot on the stove top to finish cooking so it was 1:00 when we ate but everything was very good.
After everyone left from lunch daughter brought IR by to stay with me while she, hubbie and #1 son went over to do some measuring on the land she is thinking about buying. What she measured out the owner wouldn't agree to so she doesn't know what she is going to do now. The owner is going to try to get the property line surveyed so they will know exactly how wide the property will be at the spot where she wants her house.
Meanwhile IR and I spent a quiet afternoon watching Baby Bum music and dancing.
As soon as they got back from the property measuring hubbie and I made a quick trip to Tractor Supply to pick up an extra couple bags of chicken feed in case the weather folks miss the amount of snow and ice we will be getting tomorrow from the new winter storm named Skylar.

Our frozen precip will depend on the cold front that is bringing in the freezing temps timing. There is definitely a chill in the air tonight that feels different and the temp at 9:00 is 41 degrees with a light rain falling outside.
I emptied about 1/10ths inch from the gauge at chore time this evening.
Going to get to bed very early tonight as hubbie and I both are already like two sore tailed cats tonight with this time change.
I sure wish they would leave the time one way or the other all the time.
Thankful for the blessings of this day.
God Bless and Good Night

Every time we change our clocks - either forward or back - my body has trouble adjusting. Sure wish we would stay with one or the other and stop the back and forth. Maybe it's just my age, but i don't like all the change. . Blessings
