US season-change dates (any season-season change) can range from the 19th - 21st due to the fact it's determined AT the Prime Meridian. And I distinctly recall one change (Eastern Time) that took place on the 22nd... but do not ask me which season or the year. But it was the 22nd.

Using a wall calendar: you have to make note of where that calendar's intended-use country is located. Not EVERY calendar printed is for use in the US. Amazon gets them from all over the world and I've had one from Australia (which may account for the 22nd mentioned above???) and another from South Africa (also may account for 22nd... being east of Prime Meridian).

I remember it being the 22nd one year also. Good to know that it can shift and why. thanks!

morning, bear! and already :facepalm: .............. :laugh:

I'll be heading out soon... need to get the car's interior cleaned in celebration of Spring. 3+ months' worth of smoke haze on windows and stray ash all over the back seat. Then in late April, I hand over the car for 1.5 days to the detail shop for a complete renewal.

it takes 1.5 days to clean your car? wow. I hope that means it's a good, deep cleaning.

Complete shampooing of interior, exterior bumper-to-bumper clay-bar-ing, and have the brake calipers repainted to fresh white. :) I love a clean car. AND: There is a carnation on the driver's seat when you pick it up!!!

Doll-Up Special w/ Rub (plus, like I mentioned, caliper re-paint):

Which - by the way - reminds me of another reason I am hating the tablet: fingerprints. I recall - at work - other people's monitors just being FILTHY with fingerprints (made me nauseous). If somebody was in my office and went to touch my screen, I'd slap their hand away and give them a pencil to use as a pointing device. Dirty windows make me wild.
