Paying close attention . . .

It's finally that time of year when I notice the days truly are getting longer. I get up in the morning, head out the door, it's not the middle of the night - as I've been prone to think and grumble - but actually time to be up and out!

When the weather/news sources post the sunrise and sunset times, the differences day to day seem so minute that a person wouldn't think it makes any difference at all. But cumulatively [obviously!] it does.

I'm guessing this little bit of difference can make a whole lot of difference in other areas: counting calories, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, spending habits . . . and that's just in my little part of the world.

I wonder if "the powers that be" ever pay this close attention?
