A reminder to those who turn your clocks back, tonight is the night at midnight. I know there are some states and countries that do not recognize DST (Daylight Savings Time), but we will spring forward one hour tonight.
One good thing about the spring change is we get another hour of daylight. The days will be a little longer. Honestly I wish they would just leave the time alone but that is not my decision. So I will roll with it and enjoy the extra hour of daylight for now.
What about you? Any opinions on changing the clocks back and forth?

They tried it long ago when we were still in college, and it is so confusing. It's hard to adjust.

I'm not sure I see the point in it but it's the way it has always been in my life so I'm used to doing it.

I have never liked it, but I have heard that they want to stop it.

We used to have DST when I was a child. Good thing our recent leaders have not thought of that lately. I don't like the idea of getting on an hour earlier than usual

I agree with leaving the time alone. I liked it better when the clocks changed in April, although there are some benefits to having extra daylight.

I miss the old days when my Mom would call me and remind me about the clocks. My hubby is wrestling with our chiming clocks now- if he does not get the job done right, those naughty clocks will be chiming all night long instead of napping and chiming in the day.

Our DST will return to normal in April. Very confusing when this happens.

I put alarms on 24 hour clock. We have no DST though. It helps me to wake up.
