REMINDER - FALL BACK THIS WEEKEND ⏰

Daylight Saving Time ends at 2:00 AM on November 2nd.

Set your clocks BACK an hour when you go to bed Saturday night.

Enjoy the extra hour of sleep on Sunday morning.

🛌 😴 💤

I sure wish they would leave the time alone. We are only on this standard time for 4 months. Why not just leave it at DST.

Too bad. DST all year would be nice.

Ugggggh. Hate it. They keep teasing us that they are going to stop this....but every year....NOT. Dread this time of year.

Here in CT, it winds up getting dark at about 4:30!! The day goes by so fast if you want to run errands while it's still light out etc.

I think it's worse in the Northeast than further south. My friend from VA, who lived up here in RI for a year, said they couldn't believe how early it got dark. She said that in VA, at it's worst it still didn't get dark until about 6 or 6:30.

Thank you for the reminder. I'm another one who doesn't like it. Being a working person it is not helpful at all. 😕

We don't change clocks but I do wish they would leave it as is. I like my shows 3 hours earlier vs two.

While the summer is not good for me this seems to happen so quickly every year.

I too wish they would just stop this time change nonsense. Having said that, I admit I am looking forward to it being lighter earlier in the mornings.

@amyb Yup, I remember when I worked.... it was dark when I went to work and dark when I drove home. I rarely saw sunshine in Dec and Jan.

Which is, regardless whether one actually has "SAD", Seasonl Light Disorder, or not...it's downright depressing!

Just curious why you look forward to it?

DH and I are looking forward to it. We are early risers, and a little more light in the morning will be welcome. DH drives a school bus, and right now he's picking up children in the dark. Not very safe, in my opinion.

@JeanLouiseFinch Thank you.

I don't bother to change my Cookoo clock to DST. I leave it at regular time all year. Too much work.

Disrupts people's sleep patterns either way and those pets dont get it as on their built in clock for walks and meals. Arizona is smart.

Very early riser here, however, I'm Not looking forward to the time change. By 5:00 pm I'm ready to hibernate, lol, ant that's not an option!
