It only messes me up for a few days and then I get it all straightened out.  It takes some getting used to cause last night I went to bed at 3 cause I completely forgot it was spring forward.  So today I'm a little off but I will get it right later.

It throws me off a little, but by the end of the week I will be fine.

The Spring Forward throws me off for the first few days and then I am okay. Now the fall back time change is a lot easier for me as I am sure it is for others too.

i actually like this better. when i get off work, it's still light outside and i don't have to worry about walking to my car in the dark even if i work at school.

I wish they would leave the time alone. It takes so long to feel like your back on schedule after they change the time. I would like to know who it really helps.

I agree that I think the time change is pretty worthless nowadays. I wish we'd just stay at one time instead of switching back and forth.... I know my pets get the most confused, since their only way to track time is by the sun... I had a tough time getting them up this morning cuz it still felt like it was nighttime for them!

I tend to stay up too late anyway, so for a few days I lose a little more sleep because the evening seems to go so fast.  Eventually I get into a "normal" rhythm.  One of my goals is to get more sleep but it is difficult because I get up early for work and my basic tendency has been that of a night owl.

Every year's the same, spring forward, then fall back time.

I'm so glad that this year it fell on Spring break for us so that my son has a week to adjust to it.

I think it's funny how many people complain about it. It's not a big deal.  ::)

I love that it now will stay light longer! That being said, I find that I am awake more during the last couple of nights, not a really big deal but a bit bothersome and makes me a bit sleepy in the afternoon, but overall not a big deal!

Daylight Savings Time always takes me at least a week or so to get used to. For that first week, I feel exhausted!!!!So crazy!

I thought I would be completely messed up, but so far I am doing fine with the time change.

I hate it it takes me almost a month before I finally adjust to the time change with my job I go to work in the dark and come home in the dark I hate it

I hate the process of adjusting to Daylight Savings Time.  My internal clock gets whacked out....can't get to sleep at night...can't wake up in the morning. Eventually I adapt.

I haven't had much problem with Daylight Savings Time this time around but I do not see the sense of it.  It was started back in World War II but it surely isn't necessary now.

I hate this. :( It's so hard to adjust and I can barely sleep because of it. Plus, the days go by quicker and I hate that.

I wish we would stop the time change in the fall.  I like it light earlier.  I am excited about the longer days though.  Everyone have a great day.

I'm grateful for the longer daylight hours. It does make me tired, but it seems everything does. ;)

I hate when we have to change the times because its a we bit of a hassle to adjust . Every state should adopt what arizona has no *bleep* time change . It's simpler and less annoying

It gets harder every year for me.  Couldn't sleep for a few nights because of it.

Everyone keeps telling people to spring ahead. Some of clocks outside in certain cities are still back an hour. Lol
