daylight savings time stinks !!!!

Ponyup · 03-09-2009, 05:33 AM

I hate it. It's a pretty new concept for us Hoosiers & it's just plain annoying. I go to bed at 9-9:30 & during the summer it's still daylight until 10 at least. Plus it was just starting to get light in the morning & now it's dark again.

That's what time i go to bed to around 9-9:30, and that was Micah's schedule, now its all messed up again, he's going to bed around 10-10:30 taking naps later in the day also.. and i hate that's its dark when i come to work also.

We used to have the time change many many years ago in Indiana, but for some reason they stopped. Now they are doing it again. I don't like the first couple of days....I'm always so tired, but after that I love it. The darkness of a morning isn't too awful bad, but I really love the extra light of an evening in the summertime. Weird going to bed sometimes when it's still light, but I have shades that make the room almost black...so it's okay.

We don't have daylight savings here. I love not having to remember things like that, but it's hard to make plans with friends who live in other provinces!

I guess i have to get use to it Janet, i do like the extra daylight to play with Micah outside.
i just remebered i have to change my batteries in my smoke detectors...

That's a good idea Haley. We change the batteries on ours twice a year. New Years Day and July 4th. Just something we've always done.

Janet i never started that until Micah was born, then Mike also got Carbon monoxide detectors also, they went off twice already, we had the furance checked and found nothing. i hate those pain in the ass things.... just cost me more money...

I like the time change! The daylight in the afternoons is worth the adjustment for me. But then again I don't have any children that need to adjust. Thank goodness kids are adaptable
