Don't forget to set your clocks ahead on Sunday and check those smoke detector batteries, and other detectors too, if you have the CO2 , etc....

We have too many clocks, watches and the timers on the fish tank lights. Oh and also the clocks in the cars.

Dennis are you your own boss?  Lol.

The only thing I have against the time change in either direction is that I don't use an alarm clock.  I wake up by the way the light comes into my bedroom windows.  Lately I've been waking up earlier, so I think it's time for a change (pun?)   Sundays and Mondays are my days off so I have two days to adjust.  I like having more light in the evening.

It's only 8:13 now (pre adjustment) and I am already tired as heck.  I can't wait to lose that hour.

Lol.  You sound like my husband. He sees it as an opportunity to go to bed earlier, getting some extra sleep.

It really makes no difference to me....If I sleep around 5-6 good hrs,whatever, and still get up at 4-5 AM no alarm, nada...I've done it for years...I can stay up til after midnight, same thing...4-5 AM..it's a built in wake up....if I need extra sleep, I hit the rack a little early......

Problem is I didn't get to bed until 11:30 and then when I set the clock ahead I automatically turned on the alarm which went off at 6:30.  Did I mention that I had no reason to wake up at 6:30 on a Sunday morning when there is no swap.
