Daylight Savings Time

[RUFFIAN]

Actually the concept of LOSING an Hour Of Sleep is not really true
~ ~ ~ Here is an example of why not

EXAMPLE SCENARIO

If you go to sleep at Midnight and normally get up at 8 am

* Just DO NOT CHANGE your clock the night before!

* Simply do your normal routine, get up at Normal time THEN CHANGE CLOCK!

Thus, still sleeping the same number of hours you normally do!

That works if you don't have to be somewhere, like work, the first thing in the morning. And don't break my bubble of believing something all my life, true of not?! Maybe this is a prime example of fake news. I'm surprised the new "leader" of our country does not have a crazy tweet about this highly important occurrence yet ... he still has time albeit and hour less if he waits until Sunday

YOU WORK ON SUNDAY?

Following your suggested procedure, you end up losing an hour of waking time the next day rather than an hour of sleep. One way or the other, we are giving back the extra hour that we were given last October.

All I know is that right now it is daylight when I go out to get the paper, and come Sunday morning it won't be if I get up at the same time.

NOT NECESSILY...YOU CAN ALWAYS STAY UP AN HOUR LATER THE NEXT DAY

MY FAVORITE DAY OF THE YEAR IS WHEN WE START DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME

COLORADO HAS A BILL UP FOR VOTE TO MAINTAIN DST YEAR ROUND
YAY!!! DOUBT IT WILL PASS THO

I LOVE THE DAY BEING LIGHTER LATER GIVING ME MORE TIME OUT
WITH THE HORSES AND DOG!

I like the fact that you still get a morning paper. I haven't read a paper in a very loooooong time.

I've been called antediluvian by my high tech friends. I still prefer real books where you can turn the pages and the morning newspaper in which I can do the sudoko and crossword puzzle. As a further heresy, I even like to have a print out of the past performances rather than handicap on line. This allows me to use highlighter and colored markers to mark up the pp's, although I know that Formulator lets you do almost the same thing. Old habits can be difficult to change, especially when they work for you.

For now yes, until our hippo project gets completed at the Dallas Zoo, where I work. The zoo is open every day of the year except Christmas. Our contractor is working weekends to make up for lost time. My coordinator take Saturday and I have Sunday through the end of April.
