an excellent point, brad. illustrated by my present status. it’s definitely night this morning, as usual, just more dramatically. even wordpress needed a little nudge to adjust.
You have yours already today? Ours here is on the 28th of March…. But after the illusion of having spring with us it’s snowing again and I don’t like it one bit!
The microwave, the oven, the watch, the bedside clock, the car clock. I’m exhausted just thinking about it. Always have to get the manuals out to figure out how to change the xxxx things.
The car is definitely the hardest. Every time I think to do it I think,”It’s almost Day Light Saving’s Time.” So why go to the trouble? Or at least that’s my excuse. Same for spring and fall.
(You are forgiven for not reading my original post correctly. lol
A big thank you for reading it. 🙂 )
My car clock has a way of getting around that ‘twice a day’ thing. It gains a minute or two when it feels like it. I never know if I’m running late or running early.
It was dark when I first opened my eyes, Beth, but I rolled over instead of getting up. It was light when I got up and changed the clocks that needed manual changing and drank the first cup of coffee of Daylight Savings Time 2021 and thanked my dear wife Karen for taking care of giving Ellie B aka Dogamous Pyle breakfast today.
I like DST. The ‘spring forward’ thing is a pain, but come June, it’ll be light at 10PM. In Oregon, we voted to stay on DST year round. CA and WA did too, so the whole west coast is on board. But it has to be okayed by the Feds, which probably won’t happen.
Jim, now i’m seriously jealous. YES, let’s just go ahead with summer time and KEEP it…. When this discussion started in Switzerland, we were probably the last country who adopted the ‘then’ changes. Because – and hold on to the table in front of you – the cows don’t give their milk willingly at any other time than….. ! I failed to find a difference in the quantity and quality of Swiss milk since. And now the whole caboodle is in discussion once more to revert to the ‘forever winter time’ as it was in the 60th. God, give me strength! 😉
DST reeks all kinds of havoc. My sister need meds at a certain interval and calculating how to get her back to a schedule that works for her took all three of us math wizards here. 😉 I am not a fan. Great quote helped ease that pain.
It is night when you wake up Beth, regardless of daylight savings time.
