I used to love rainy days, and then I moved to England. What I would do for some sunshine for 12 hours, with some warmth added. The first day of 2012, brought rain in England. Am I surprised? Nope. I would have loved to drive to a beach today, and taken some pictures but that will have to wait. So I spent the day cleaning, doing laundry, reading a book, and yes, sleeping. It would sound like a great plan to someone else, but these are some of the things I do daily(except for the nap part, I don't have that luxury all the time). So, clearly, I would have loved to spend the day doing something a little more exciting.
When we moved here in June, and the sun didn't go down till 10pm and then came right up at about 5am, I couldn't stand it. The kids didn't want to go to bed at their bedtime(8pm) because it was still daylight out, and then of course, as soon as that sun popped up bright and early in the morning so did I. After spending a winter here, I am WELCOMING SUMMER WITH OPEN ARMS! I have plans of sitting out in the sunlight and just basking in the sun. I have been watching the sunset and sunrise times, and they are getting better! Sunset isn't scheduled till almost 4pm, and sunrise is moving up to 8:15..and as the days go on, it'll get darker later and brighter earlier! I cannot wait.
