I'm looking forward to having another hour of daylight! :B
Soon it's going to be time for all the fun stuff...85 degree days, the pool & pool parties, less clothes, outdoor living & dining al fresco. I'm psyched!
I resent having my sleep schedule messed with twice a year.
What you are gaining on the back end, you are losing on the front end. They do not actually add hours. hahahaha
By the time you die you will have spent, at the very least, 20 yrs. of your life sleeping.

Clocks went back an hour in the UK on saturday night.

I think that cranky old woman is a hoot but I wouldn't go back to being twenty for love or money.

This whole hour ahead/hour back thing is really a pain in the ass. Just leave the clock where it is. Why do we need to live by clocks and calenders anyway?

i was looking at antiques...here are 2 for Duchess~
c.1760 French Ormolu and Patinated Horse Clock.
Antique clock in the form of a horse in classic Adam style from George III late 18th century period. The bronze case in the form of a horse with the clock sitting above and all standing on a white marble oval base. The 30 hour chain fusee watch movement having a verge escapement and a pierced and engraved backplate, the white enamel dial having black Roman numerals and blued steel spade hands. English circa 1780.

Cool clocks. I really like the second one.
This time change is going to screw me up, I already get up pretty early & my eyes will go (((BOING))) in the middle of the night once it changes.

Am I glad someone said something! I would have never figured out why the roads were empty or why it was dark or light or anything, hell I bet the television would have looked funny if I did not find this out. You people sure know how to keep everyone informed and stuff! Thank heavens!!! This is so comforting, now I don't have to think about it anymore.

I don't like it either, it's too ostentatious. I don't like "flashy".

Nice watch, I'm sure there is a starving child out there that would appreciate its beauty.

I would LOVE to stick that on my rear view mirror, my clock just clucked its last hour on my dashboard. I hate like hell to depend on the sun.
