I will enjoy the extra hour of sleep, though personally if it were up to me we wouldn't do daylight savings time. I really don't see much of a point in it.

I'll probably be up the extra hour. :lol:

As for me, I hate the 4:45 sunsets that come with standard time.

Yeah, it is rather depressing but I'm getting home from work when it's almost dark out now, so I'm slightly prepared for it.

Ha ha. Thats something I would normally do but since I am supposed to be at church tomorrow I actually went ahead and set one clock(mine) before I had to. But it sure will be nice to get that extra hour tomorrow I am sure I will need it. Its been a REALLY long day with all the kiddies.

You don't need sticky notes if you leave your computer on all day. Just type your reminders in a word file and leave it open.

Don't forget to go into the User Control Panel, then Profile, then Board Settings, and change "Summer Time/DST is in effect:" to no.



I love the longer daylight days. I really don't like it when it gets dark in the afternoon. It's just not right. :P

Time goes very fast that March 14th will come like a lion. :) That is the date the clocks move ahead one hour.

Yes, it really messed up my bicycle ride this morning, since the 9 a.m. sun was actually the 10 a.m. sun of yesterday, meaning that it was 5-7 degrees hotter (near 90 here today)...

And, I woke up at 5 this morning, which was actually 4 yesterday morning, except in the Florida panhandle, which was 4 this morning, but was actually 3 yesterday morning [making blubbering sound with finger on lips]...

LOL
