We're weeks away from the time change, but I'm having trouble getting in gear!!

I figure while it's still dark now, I can goof around longer, then I look at the clock and my 9:00 appointments and I have to get rolling!!! This dark so long in the morning, is messing me up. Oh well, only a few weeks to go till the time goes back. I really don't like the back and forth. We've discussed that on here before, so is the dark so long in the morning doing the same to others here?

Yes.

 

It's hard to get up for work in the dark after it being light for so long.

I'm in AZ and we don't change time.    Since everybody else does, it's kinda wacky since we equal PDT in the summer months.    However, the cable stations don't adjust for "our" anomaly.......so we have to remember the "new" times our favorite shows are on.    Also messes up calling my relatives long distance......I seem to get them when they're going to bed...........

I HATE,the time change, dark so early in the evening, it takes my depression, and just makes it worse.

Yes, it's strange to be rushing around in the dark in the AM, and during the rush hour c. 8AM, I've noticed that people are driving a bit more desperately even than usual.  Maybe everyone is running a bit late?

i LOVE the time change back to standard time. i wish they would just get rid of daylight savings time and keep standard time year round. there really is no reason for it!

I love it, love it, love it! I'm the only person I know who prefers the winter because it gets dark early. Of course, it doesn't get very cold here, but I still love the winter.  

 

One exception, when my dog was alive it was difficult because it's still dark when I leave for work at 6:30 am.  There were several mornings when we "met" raccoons, skunks and coyotes on our walk. I'm a city girl and that terrifies me.  It's the only good thing about being dogless now.
