I'm starting to notice the days getting longer, and maybe the sun feels slightly brighter, too? Though not any warmer. Sunset is getting close to 5 pm and rising a little after 7 am, though I usually don't wake up early enough.

Nice to see more light. Spring is coming!

Bah! I don't like that it's already lighter at 5PM.

Then again, I'm probably the only one who would complain about something like that.

ilovemycomputer90, I don't mind it being light well into the evening hours, but what I do get tired of is daylight early in the morning. Wakes me up. Sometimes I hang sheets over my window in the summer so the dang early sunlight doesn't wake me up so early! lol.

Although, once I am awake, the sunlight already being there is pretty nice!

I can certainly relate. During the winter since the sun is at a lower angle, it blasts right into my bedroom window making my room too bright (another reason to prefer cloudy days ). I actually don't mind morning sunshine, but could do without the long evenings. It just doesn't feel right to be eating dinner and watching Jeopardy when it's sunny lol.

Winters are short here in ca. During summer it gets dark around 8:30 pm. When i lived in germany the sunset after 10:00 pm & it was daylight around 5 am. That took some getting use to & i didnt care for that much.

I prefer sunsets at 6:00 pm which it will be soon.
