Clocks go back
« on: November 02, 2019, 04:41:46 pm »
On saturday nov 2nd  in some parts of the country, we turn the clicks back 1 hour. Not all states do this because I have family in arizona and they don't  change their clocks . We get an extra hour sleep.  ;)

We change ours back also live outside of Chicago.  I really hate this time of year because it is dark when I leave for work and dark when I come home.  Hate the sun setting at 4:30

Yes, it's once again that time! I'm not really a fan and find it's just a disruption!   ::)

    Time goes crazy!  :(
     In some places, you do not do anything to your clock.

I hate to change the time, I feel like I am just dragged out for a few days until my body adjusts!

i love the extra hour of sleep!
however, i hate the rest of it.It will be dark really early and November is famous for lack of sunshine in the state of Mass.
i wish they would get rid of the time change but i am not sure what the solution is. no other state in New england want to get rid of it as a result not sure what time zome we would be in if we did. :pumpkin: :peace: :wave:

Yes! It's the day where everyone gains an hour and wakes up "early"....what are your thoughts on making these time changes every year?

I wish they would leave it alone.  One way or the other.  But it is not a big deal.  It doesn't screw me up for weeks and weeks like some people claim it does.

Look at the clock.  IT is the time is states.  I turned my back a couple hours before I went to bed.  IT is funny though because I woke up at around 2:00 this morning.  But it was 2:00 by the new time so the old time it would have been 3:00. haha

But I know all day today people will look at their clocks and say oh I don't know what time it is.  IT IS THE TIME IT SAYS on your watch or the clock or your phone or what ever you are looking at.

Never really understood how you gain an extra hour of time but...

When I worked over nights I used to take this day off because it seemed like the night just dragged on.  I didn't mind when we turned it forward though.

Spring forward/Fall back.
