At least I got an extra hour's worth of cleaning and laundry done.

I liked the extra hour, but noticed the kids getting sleepy around 730. Smile Hubby was up "early" too yesterday and today, which is saying a lot since he was off and usually sleeps until 10ish. I need to change his alarm clock too today... I love that the computers & tv are all programmed for DST so we didn't have to change too much around here.

I used that extra hour and slept like a log.

Which explains why I woke up in the fireplace.

Nothing changes here...so no extra hour of sleep. However, this puts us on a better time difference to make calls to family again. Two hours is so much nicer than three when making the calls to everyone. Very Happy

long, but I didn't necessarily get a lot done. I've also noticed that I take a long time to readjust to the time changes. it doesn't seem to matter which direction we go, I end up needing more sleep for about a week after the time change.

BTW, it is "Daylight Saving Time" not "Daylight Savings Time." And I hate it. I'm glad I live in Indiana. Smile
