Good Morning Rewind Friends!
You're no doubt feeling a little more exhausted than usual this morning. That's because we're all springing forward with daylight savings time. Did you know that the biannual tradition celebrates 100 years, this year?
I don't know about you, but I have a love-hate relationship with DST. Spring, when I lose my sleep, is the start of my hate-affair. If you're like me, you need to mentally regroup this morning.
