Well I have four...

1) This should really be next Wednesday's (I'll post it again then) -- but my appointment at the Leeds Council for the Nationality Document Checking Service is set for Wednesday morning & then my British naturalisation application will be off! ;D

2) My neighbour & friend from both here in town & UKY -- Andee -- got married this morning!  Yaye! :)

3) Our two recent BIG house projects -- the back porch & the back roof are both done!

4) I am starting to feel human again after a week of the worst monthly bloat evah!  (I'm talking 7 lbs worth of it - ugh!)

President Bush changed our Daylight Savings Time so we have another week or two. It makes the time difference a little tricky for a couple of weeks!

It was always one week off from when we do it in the UK.  Is it now two weeks instead?

It's the Energy Act he signed in 2005.  The Department of Energy is supposed to be studying the impact.   Once the study is complete, Congress has the power to change the schedule back.  It differs from the EU by two weeks earlier in the Spring and one later in the Fall.

Oh maybe I was confused then.  I knew there always used to be one time change in the year (couldn't remember spring or fall), when the US did it a week's difference from when the UK does it.  Must have been the spring then!  And now it's two weeks difference in the spring, one week in the fall.
