Getting Colder

The weather dropped 10 degrees. Still warm during the day. At least the flies, mosquitoes and wasps have finally gone away. I guess I am fortunate that Arizona doesn't observe Daylight Savings time. I still have a few minutes of daylight when I get home...for now. I have too many dogs to take them for a walk anyway. Now I just let them chase each other in the front yard while I scoop the poop. It is much harder to keep up on that chore with so many dogs. Both chores actually, the walking and the scooping.

I remember this time of year. Every morning I open my closet and hope to find a warm and soft outfit that is still nice looking and professional. I need more sweaters. I should have bought some during the summer when there was a better selection at the thrift store. I decided that I didn't have room to store them so I didn't buy them. Now I wish I had especially because I don't seem to have time for clothes shopping anymore. I think I am going to have to plan a shopping trip. Maybe while my dogs are sitting at the pet store I can sneak over to the thrift store on Saturday. Now I just need to find the money.

Actually, Daylight Saving Time ended for the year on Sunday so it wouldn't matter whether Arizona observed it or not you would still have daylight ending at the same time of night.

Ok Andy, I guess I was thinking as if Arizona was on Pacific time. I have a lot of friends and family in that time zone and we are only the same time for half a year. Now they are an hour behind.
