Who Is looking forward to Standard Time?

[ Edited ]

I do. Dark, cooler, cozy weather is especially welcomed after a looong, scorching hot summer.

@monicakm 😫😫. NO. Not me...it was only 80 here today.  I can't take these cooler evenings.  Gotta wear a sweater on the porch!  Come back hazy, thick, drippy hot and humid.  

 

And I like that it stays daylight until 9.  Ugghhhhhhhh

I wish it was summer all year!  I love the long light days, the summer clothes, swimming and being in the water, flowers, green grass, bright happy days.

 

I dread the cold dark of fall and winter.  It is so depressing, flu going around, etc.  I start to perk up after Valentine's Day!  Summer is coming if we can just get through tornado season.

@Sooner   You must be my summer weather "soul sister".  I am outside all summer...either at home or the beach. I loathe being inside at work and walk around campus as much as I can!

I tolerate summer, but I thrive in the other 3 seasons ! Bring on standard time !

I don't.  I do not like driving in the dark.  It's a different world than driving when it's light out.  I try to avoid it.  

 

Last week I had no choice and it was getting dark as I drove home & almost hit a deer.  I was about three inches from it as it was smack in the middle of the front of my car!

 

It makes me more tired too when it's dark longer and the days are so short.

I hadn't thought about it, but yes I'll be glad when the time changes back ....  that's November 3rd, right?

 

Honestly, I'm not sure the time changes mean much anymore.   

 

They should pick one version and stick with it.  I hate changing all my watches twice a year.   Grr.

No, I hate it when it is dark at 5:00 p.m.  Depressing to me!!!

Nope don't like standard time.  The weather stays the same regardless of the time and like the additional light in the evenings.
