    Lightbulb Daylight Saving Time!!

    Just wanted to prepare everyone for this weekend... don't forget to "Fall Back" an hour Saturday night/Sunday morning (10/28).

    Thanks for the reminder, although I suspect that after a bit of wine Saturday night, the "falling back" part will come easily!

    Thanks Andrea. Although I hate to "lose" the hour of daylight, I love getting an extra hour of sleep that night . . . and it's always easier to get up on the Monday morning after the fall back. I love getting the extra hour of daylight in the spring but I always struggle to adjust to that change more so than I do with the change in the fall!

    One of my favorite days of the year! What could be better than a whole extra hour to sleep in?! Thanks for reminding me - I will be smiling all week knowing that an extra hour can be dreamt away Saturday night.
    And yes, I hate that it gets dark earlier but its already dark when I leave work so its not much of a difference for me really.

    We don't change here, but thanks for the reminder. It makes my phone calls to DH's parents on the East Coast a bit easier now that it will be five hours instead of six. My parents are West Coast so its not to big of a change, only two hours.

    reason we're as crazy as we are and I believe it." Jimmy Buffet, Fruitcakes, 1994

    I'm with you bosunswife!

    We don't change here either, but it makes calling my realitives on the east coast a little easier!

    Thanks for the reminder though Andrea. I forgot about the change, now I can call my mom earlier in the afternoons! Yeah!
