Re: Do you wish the time change would end?

I prefer having Daylight Savings Time all year round.  I hate in the wintertime in New York when it is dark at 4:00 pm.  I feel that I cannot do anything.  I love when it is lighter longer.

I live in Arizona, so no time change but I have family in CA and NM that are each in different time zones and do practice DST . It is so confusing that I Google their current time every time we visit. A small percentage of population now farms so old reason for DST is outdated.

 Today I spent an hour resetting all of my timers, then some didn't work! Another hour searching for new ones. 
  I have to reset timed candles tonight. I hope they work!

Re: Do you wish the time change would end?

I love the longer days....wish it would just stay this way and they would leave it alone...I don't like falling back in the fall so it's dark at 5:30....that makes me want to put on my pjs!

Yes, I wish we would stay on daylight savings time.  I don't mind it being dark in the morning but I really like it being light later at night. 

 

However, I don't find the one hour time change to be disruptive either way as so many seem to do.

Me, either.  Unless you have to be somewhere really early every day for work, I doubt if affects people as much as they claim.  Some people just like to whine every chance they get.

 

Having said that, I used to travel for business and a cross country flight, 3 hours time difference, WAS noticeable.

 

I knew someone who traveled to other countries rather frequently, and his advice was go to bed, local time, regardless of what time it is at home.  Worked wonders for him functioning.

Re: Do you wish the time change would end?

One nice thing about having pretty much all my gadgets connected to the internet is that they all set themselves to the right time.

 

Daylight savings has never been that big a deal for me. I associate it with an extra hour of sleeping in in the fall and that's about it.

Re: Do you wish the time change would end?

@Carmie - I understand her point.  As a frequent visitor to Texas to visit family, the sun setting one hour earlier makes a difference.  It allows the things to start coolling down a bit earlier.  I would prefer Standard Time in So. California.  Our summers are getting hotter and hotter and would welcome the sun setting an hour earlier.  I don't know where you live.  Maybe it doesn't matter in your climate.
