No more darkness at 7 a.m., no more rolling over and drifting back to sleep, pretending it's "still nighttime" even though a quick glance at the clock reveals that it most certainly is not.
The time change has given us back our precious early hours and we must decide what to do with them: a walk, a blog post, a head start on homework? All of these and more?
One thing is clear, though, and that's the urgency to use these hours now, while we have them, because in a month or so, it will once again be dark at 7 a.m.
