AND the extra hour is actually spent changing all the darn clocks!

Not if you didn't do it in April...{#emotions_dlg.devil2}

There's a thought, but knowing me, I could not just let it go.

Although, I usually takes me a bit to figure out how to change it in my car each time. : )

Same here! Don't know why I find it sooooo difficult to change the clock in both cars!

and then, when I finally figure it out, I think "that wasn't so hard, I WILL remember it next time" and never do remember it the next time.

Hahaha! Yep!

Re: That extra hour is just lost on me

I like it. Changing the clock is easy now that so many of them don't need me to touch them. It will take me a few days to acclimate to the new time, but then, I'll be happy qith the morning light - I've been awake before dawn for weeks already.

Re: That extra hour is just lost on me

When you are retired and up in years, the extra hour doesn,t matter. When I was working, I loved it. Now I have to walk dog during the day, where before I could do at six or seven, if I didn,t have time during the day.

Snik: Oh, no!! You are too funny! Actually, you remind me of myself when I was in my 20's, 30's, 40's. Several people were/are night people and don't get started until around 2:30pm, and often couldn't understand me and my early morning activities!

We don't change time, but I never had a problem with it in California.

Re: That extra hour is just lost on me

I was never bothered with sleep patterns by the clocks changing. My husband hates when we lose an hour in Spring. He says it throws him off.

The only thing I DO hate is now its dark out early! We wont go out as much at night because my husband is legally blind without his glasses and he cannot see well to drive WITH his glasses. (he has an eye disease).

ALSO, I think its outdated and should be changed to stay light out later so when the bad weather comes because its common sense that the sun would melt the ice and snow! But I guess the powers that be will never change it!

yeah, but I still haven't set the clock in my car! The end table looks great, though!
