Those that live farther north lose the most daylight hours at this time of year and into winter, no matter what the clock says.

Go away and don't come back again.

I hate it getting dark so early.

I absolutely despise falling back to standard time and post about it every year. It's 6:00 PM. It feels like it's time for bed.

I'm a morning person so I love the extra light  !

So I had a long day at work with a lot of driving but it started early this AM.  When I got home I was so tired I decided to take a quick nap.

 I woke up at 5:55pm (about 20 minutes ago) and was so confused I thought it was 5:55am on Friday because it was so dark outside.  My husband was feeding the dogs and cats and started laughing when I asked him if it was morning.  😹😹😹

While we don't change times the only thing that changes are programs are 1 hour later which I don't like. Other than that I like the darkness, and most certainly the cool weather.

You're right.  I suppose I should have said I hate time changes.  I wish they would stay with standard time.

I keep feeling it's time for bed at 7 pm...then I look at the clock and see there are still 3 or 4 hrs. until my bedtime! Really weird.

It isn't very safe, walking home from work, etc. in dark, late afternoons.

Also, I miss my evening walks......too dark to walk because of critters: skunks, hungry packs of coyotes , raccoons, etc.

So, I prefer the 'other' time.  Daylight Savings Time.
