It's time again (spring forward)

[Pearl]

Two weeks! I'm so ready, feels like the first official day of summer for me! Yeah, we'll lose an hour, but standard time can be depressing (haha, even that can't turn me into Debbie Downer)!! I change my clocks during the day on that Saturday so I don't miss an hour of sleep!

 

[Bacpacker]

I change my clocks on Friday after work. Get a head start don't ya know

 

[Pearl]

My critters like when I change the clocks in the afternoon, supper is an hour early!!( There is no donkey emoji, so just pretend it has longer ears)!

 

[sonya123]

Whatever happened to them doing away with this nonsense? I don't care either way, we get up and start working when it gets light out

It means I get to start drinking beer an hour earlier!

There I am at the bottom... just when I thought I was being low profile!

My donkey has bigger -------

 

[Heartbroken]

Sigh. I absolutely despise the time changes. Makes me ill for weeks, completely messes up my biorhythms or something. I wish the stupid nonsense would be done away with. The natural world functions just fine without the silly arrogance of man claiming he's "saving daylight".

Can I get an Amen to that?!

 

[dademoss]

The time change used to bother me greatly. Anymore, I wake up when the cat goes off and I have to pee. I go to bed when I'm tired. No matter what the clock says, it's always dark outside. Don't much care what the clock says except to see whats on tv to ignore

[Amish Heart]

Ugh. It'll take me a week to getting up what feels to be an hour earlier. But I do enjoy the daylight.

 

[lonewolf]

its about another month before the clocks go forward here, 1st March is officially spring here.

 

[bkt]

Three cats and a dog determine when it's time for me to get up.

The worst part about the time change is going through the house and changing all the clocks. Oh, and the car clock. That's always fun.

 

[Patchouli]

Lather rinse repeat. I love time change. Don’t have to deal with blinding sun either to or from work. Dog and cat get fed when they request it.

 

[Patchouli]

Dp cuz of the server on the forum

I always find one or two I missed! I get to change clocks for several older folks, some manage to have them in really hard to reach places, lol!!

 

[lonewolf]

5 watches, 2 alarm clocks, car clock.

 

[SheepDog]

Just getting prepared, two weeks away!

 

[Pearl]

YAY!!! I am ready to change my clocks! Will do that tomorrow afternoon so I don't lose an hour of sleep! Will have a whole week of changing some of my elderly client's clocks that they can't reach!! Now if the weather will stay warm I'll be ok!!

 

[Amish Heart]

I'm not fond of this time change. It'll feel like I'm getting up way too early to bring the neighbor girl to school. Funny about the elderly's clocks, Pearl. My mom likes to change the time on her table clock. Keeps her busy. f

Imagine teachers in classrooms dealing with children who are out of whack. Some people think it is just one or two days of adjustment, but research shows it is at least three weeks to adjust to new schedules. In the fall, when we fall back, there is still an adjustment, and people think that is no problem. It is a problem, at least three weeks of being out of whack!

It's odd, because back in the day, it was all created so kids could get home from school and have more hours of daylight to work in the fields.
That's the 'daylight' they were 'saving'.

 

[Bacpacker]

Already made the changes needed.

I'll admit I am not looking forward to Sunday at all I already get up at 2:10 AM going to sleep around 8.- 9 depending on how life goes.
