Happy Daylight Savings Time! May or may not be worthy of a laugh, but what the heck, I've always been crazy, but it's kept me from going insane! Better crazy than dumb! Did manage to get the new scales drilled for a kitchen knife I've been putting off for years! Genuine Colorado Peach! Aged over 6 years! This starts St. Patrick's Week! I will chill some more Irish Red, and lift a glass to you all!
Not sure why, but I will likely stay up to change the clocks officially (lol) :fp. BTW, I do self bows :BB!

Being this far north I enjoy the daylight in the evening more than the morning.
I don’t mind going to daylight savings time in the spring, but I sure mind switching back to regular time in the fall and having it get dark by 5:30
I don’t usually stay up to set the clock. I just try to adjust myself to the new time by getting up a half hour late this morning. Then going to bed a hour early tonight and getting up on schedule tomorrow.
I have a couple clocks that set themselves anyway and the rest can just wait till I get around to it.

+1 on that. The farther north you are, the better an idea it becomes.
I don't understand all the hate on switching time. It is a trivial thing these days with phones, computers and clocks that mostly adjust automatically and it optimizes our day a bit better around a widely varying amount of daylight through the year. If you live on the Gulf Coast where it is 6am/6pm all year there is no point to it but up here we get around 8hrs of light in winter and closer to 18hrs in summer.

Same here, BJ. I wish we could just stay on DLST year round.
