An extra hour of sunlight

Daylight savings time kicked my butt this morning. I couldn't fall asleep last night, and couldn't get out of bed in the pitch dark.

I borrowed an Ambien from my mom tonight, so please don't be frightened of random keystrokes in case my head hits the keyboard.

The good thing about the extra hour is that I was able to go to the gym, where I parked myself on the treadmill in front of a TV tuned to the Food Network. It was good to look at pizza and brownies while I walked on a 6.0 incline, instead of looking at them while they fell into my mouth. But the best thing was that I picked the Kid up afterwards, and it was still light out. We had to go food shopping, but managed to get to a small playground around the corner for 10 minutes before the sun went down. It was so nice to have the place to ourselves. She loves the slide.

We went on the swings together and sang and floated back and forth, and it was just great.

Yay for the extra hour of sunlight and some time with my baby!

I can't believe M is wearing shorts--totally foreign to me this time of year!!!
Those moments in the park are priceless--enjoy each one of them.
