Don't forget to set your clocks back tonight!!

Spring Forward, Fall Back

That's how I've always remembered which way to set the clocks.

Weird because I actually had a dream about that last night and when I woke up, I thought that I forgot to set my clocks back, thinking it was Sunday. You know how sometimes when you first wake up, you're disoriented. I was thinking is it really 7AM instead of 8AM? That's OK, it wasn't like I had to be anywhere!!

I really don't like daylight savings time. Leave the time alone!

Yeah, I know. It takes me some getting used to when it's starts getting dark before 6PM!!

Yeah it's hard enought getting use to it yourself, but imagine trying to get your baby or toddler use to it, that is even harder. They are usually on a set schedule and now everything is happening an hour earlier. Bathtime, dinner, bedtime and wakeup time is all an hour earlier. For me that means 5 am is my new wakeup time.

robyrob · 11-01-2008, 02:36 PM

catlover79 · 11-01-2008, 02:37 PM

I agree - it IS a pain to have to re-set all the clocks.

MickeyMac · 11-01-2008, 03:31 PM

I'm going out tonight so that gives me an extra hour to hang lol

Schmoopie · 11-01-2008, 03:42 PM

Thanks for the reminder!

The thing I hate about it getting dark earlier is that here it will start getting dark about 4:30. I'm sorry but that is WAY too early! I don't get off work until 5, so it's going to be dark while I am working! That is just wrong!

But then we more than make up for it in August around here when it stays light until 10pm, so I've learned to deal with it!

So true, Monika. I get the honors of setting everything back. Between my husband and I, there are six watches, stove clock, cofeemaker clock, microwave clock, three clock radios, car clock, phone answering machine clock...I think that's it, lol.

When the clocks get turned, you know the holidays are right around the corner.

Doodyville10019 · 11-01-2008, 05:47 PM

Well, good thing for me most of my electronics automatically set back and forth between DST and regular....unfortunately, still have to set a few manually (which sucks!)
