Springing Forward


It is so confusing in my house when we spring forward into Daylight Savings Time.  Some clocks make the leap by themselves and some are just stubborn and must be pushed into getting rid of that hour.  The winding clocks can be changed easier in spring than fall when you have to wait for them to wind down and stop for an hour.  I am not complaining just musing.  I love that it will be light later in the evening.  It will make it easier for me and the dog to stay up just a little later.

We don't have lambs this spring.  There are not rams in the pasture.  I miss the bouncing lambs playing with each other.  I don't miss worrying about the weak ones or the ones who die at birth.  Country living can be hard on the emotional well being of soft hearted individuals.

The reception was fantastic Friday evening.  It was so much fun.  My friends are great!!!!  I set a record for pieces of art sold during a reception.  I may also have a large commissioned piece in the works.  Details to be worked out for size and color scheme which will make it harder because I really like working intuitively but it is for a friend so I will give it a try.

My friend Dragonheart had a bad day Friday but she didn't tell me until yesterday.  I love her and wish her some happiness.  We spent the day together and went to Friday Flings an art and craft fair at the Will Rogers Center in Fort Worth.  It was wonderful and all the vendors were so nice.  Sharing their wealth of goods and how to's.  Bought a bracelet and a necklace because they were so much fun.  Didn't take pictures so can't share the bounty.

We also shopped at the flea market in the cattle barn.  It was like a small Canton.  Bought a few bottles and things I must have really needed because I love them! 

Today is my sister-in-laws birthday celebration.  I am looking forward to lunch at Campisi's.  One of my favorite restaurants in Dallas. 

So all in all a great introduction to Spring.  Can't wait to see what is going to happen this year!
