That Hour

United States
November 1, 2015 6:43am CST
We slept through the time change and got an extra hour. I have been awake for a few hours. You'd think that years and years of the time change, a person would get used to it. It is not my favorite thing. It has to be tough on the farmers. The cows need tending to, never mind that extra hour. While kids got that extra hour of sleep. they may still get up early. Charged and all ready to go while the parents wish for another hour of peace. Those few states that never change their time are the lucky ones. Time to adjust to the time change.

I did not know there are states that do not change their time. Always learning. Yes it must be hell for the poor farmers. Not my fav either, but we go on. Hope you got a good sleep.

I think they need to set the time as it was before all the change BS, there's no reason for this dumb lose or gain an hour stuff.

You know @wetnosedogs if we would go by a sundial we'd be so much better off, of course explaining to the boss the your sundial wasn't functioning due to clouds might not go over all that well.

I have a hard time with the spring change, but the "fall back" one is fine by me.

It is a pain to "fall back," but I really like that extra hour of daylight in the summer.

I'm having a hard time adjusting this year. Up at 3:30. Even the birds are still sleeping.

The radio station was talking about how to get extra naps in after the time change, which surprised me since we got the extra hour this time, and didn't lose one. But, then I was surprised at how tired I've been the last few days. I don't know if it's related or I'm just pushing myself a bit harder than normal. Could be both I suppose. i just stay up an hour longer, so it doesn't do me a lot of good overall. When we lose the hour though, that hurts.

In West Australia we had a referendum - twice - and it got voted out each time. So we don't have to worry about it any more.
