I find that changing time is so annoying. I am just glad that I don't have to change the clocks this weekend. While the opposite site of the world to me is finishing daylight savings, we have started daylight savings a few weeks go. We had to change out clocks forward 1 hour. Even though it is nice to have extra daylight during the day, I some times wish that there was no such thing. especially when it comes to kids sleep times. Then when they do get into a pattern, their pattern is disrupted again by the changing of the time.
So for those who have the end of daylight savings and turning your clocks back 1 hour, enjoy your sleep. Although my thoughts would be for those who are working through that time because they will have to work an extra hour and I bet they don't like the end of daylight savings for that reason.

Hi chookie,
Too right as well and there the day is much shorter which the first week is a bit annoying to get used to again. I have found no benefit in changing the clocks this time everyone is more irritable and short tempered and so it takes you longer to be able to do things also as they take longer in the Bathroom and stay in Bed extra too. Perhaps the times we are living also influences as well I would think.

Thanks for the reminder. I always forget to change my clock and then get confused in the morning when I look at my cellphone and see a different time.

Thanks so much for the reminder...I would of never known. I knew that it was coming up with fall being here and I remember it being close to Halloween but I never know when it is. It is great that it is now because last night I had nearly no sleep. I couldn't fall asleep for the life of me..I finally fell asleep about 8am and then my mother called at 10 am to ask me a stupid question but by then I was awake and couldn't get back to sleep so I could really use that extra hour tonight. Thanks again
