Time to Spring Forward


~Silver Tray of Vintage Pocket Watches ~
Round Top Antique Market, 2010


Just a little reminder that

is the date to "Spring Forward"

to set clocks ahead one hour.

It's also Silver Sunday @ Gypsy Fish Journal.

The summer we married, my husband was in graduate school, and I was employed as a teacher. We took a portion of our savings that summer and purchased a sailboat. We christened our Catalina 22, “Hyacinths For The Soul” after Saadi’s poem. Our "Hyacinths" provided years of pleasure.

    I "sprang" already - - - last this afternoon I went around resetting clocks in an attempt to get sleepy by the clock and go to bed early.

    This spring one just about kills me - - - -

    I'm a BIG advocate - - - having lived in a state where we didn't do this clock nonsense - - - of just CHOOSING one of the times and sticking with it.

    Hi Sarah...

    I guess it is that time of the year again! While I always have a difficult time adjusting to the difference of time...it will be nice to have more daylight hours! What a beautiful photo, my friend! All of those lovely old time pieces displayed on the silver tray looks so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us for Silver Sunday!

    Have a super Sunday, Sarah!

    What a sweet reminder, I did remember, but still over slept.
    Love the tray of pocket watches, it just makes you want to grab a hand full, how pretty they look on that silver tray.
    Stopped over from Gypsy Fish Journal, Have a Fabulous Silver Sunday.

    Great photograph from Roundtop, one day, one day!
    We don't change our clocks until the 27th, so now you're one hour closer to me!

    Our spring break started, and we were visiting with neighbors and forgot all about it. We overslept this morning, too!!!

    I love the way you have Ann Estelle making repeat appearances in your blog. Such a cute idea! I have always LOVED paperdolls!! All the dolls from my ME Home Companion magazines were given to my daughter to play with as she was growing up. Now she's in college, but the dolls are carefully tucked away in a box in her closet.
    (Still can't believe that they had to stop producing that magazine! Craziest decision ever made by a publisher!)
