Don't forget to spring ahead this weekend. I love it when we get to go back to this time.

Looking forward to it...I love that it stays lighter at night! I wish it could stay Daylight Savings time all year long, I hate that we have to switch back and forth.

I HATE DST! Ugh I have no use for sunshine at 10pm! My kids go to bed at 730pm....why do we need the sun up for another 2-1/2 hrs after that!?!!? Wouldn't it make more sense for them to have sunlight for the walk to school, rather then when they are trying to sleep???

And yeah, I hate that i lose an hour of sleep too!

I do'nt get enough as it is, and now they are taking some away from me?!?!?

I like the extra daylight but my body hates adjusting to less sleep. Takes me a couple of days to get that 'spring' in my step.

Wow, good thing you don't live in Alaska or Western Canada, you'd never get any sleep.

We actually did get room darkening blinds for our kids this time last year to make it easier for them to go to sleep those last couple of months of school.

Hmm, seems like some hate it and some love it.
I love it.
I could tell the last month that I was ready for the time change.
I've been waking up at 3:30-4:00 a.m. and having a hard time falling back to sleep.

I wish Wisconsin would be like the UP of Michigan, they are on EST and I love it in summer when I am up there and the sun goes down at 10:00 p.m.
