Fall back is the greatest
Five days after the November 1 time change and I haven’t reset my wristwatch. And my bedside clock. And the clock on my dashboard. And I’m loving it.
If I’ve ever wanted to squeeze more than 24 hours into a day, fall back is the perfect time to do so. For weeks, I’ve been running behind time, now I’m running ahead without changing my pace.
I wake up at 6am. As I start to think, “Oh no! I overslept.”, I remember that the time is actually 5am and I’m up early instead. Instead of rushing the kids into the car and giving Darling Angel a pop tart to eat while I drive her to school (she loves this by the way), we now sit down and eat breakfast and I get to work on time. On time!
Okay, so it hasn’t even been a full week and I’m here proclaiming fall-back love. Will it last until time catches up with us in Spring? Probably not. But for everyday it does, I’m loving it!
