On Sunday, November 7, 2010 at 2 a.m., Daylight Savings Time ends. Just reminder for all that observe Daylight Savings Time to set your clock(s) back an hour.

Another hour of sleep. I usually set my clock(s) back Saturday night before I go to bed as there is no way, I'm getting up at 2 a.m. on Sunday to do it.



Here's an information link for DST: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time

I never realize how many clocks I have in my house until I have to reset them all. Let's see how many I have to do:



1. Coffee Pot

2. Microwave (upstairs & downstairs)

3. Stove (upstairs & downstaris)

4. Mudroom wall clock

5. Office wall clock

6. Bedroom Alarm clock

7. Entertainment center

8. Answering Machine

9. Truck clock

10. Car clock

11. Wristwatch





UGH.....how many dang clocks does one person need! I'm tired just reading my list and I probably forgot one or two.

The clocks in England already went back

I put mine back at 3PM, and it was really 2PM. So I was confused for the rest of the day

It takes me about a week to get used to the time change.

I hadn't set back my wrist watch on Sunday, so I looked at it and I thought that I was really late, but then I looked at my phone clock and I got confused, as I had set my phone clock but not my wrist watch XD
 
I was very confused sunday morning when my computer time didn't match my clock anymore...

At least I noticed it before I went to bed, so I wasn't in a bad mood the whole next day.
 
Man, I hate this... and it seems like I'm the only one who does D:



I don't like it when it gets dark at five...



However, I usually feel more refreshed in the mornings because the sun wakes me up :3

Not at all, I hate it too. Then again I never wake up early in the morning so it's always light when I get up.
 
We get this one newsletter via email from a local resident, and his way of putting DST is kind of funny, actually: Don't forget to set your clocks back an hour, or else you could find yourself an hour early for church on Sunday! It's funny, but it's actually true as well. I too always set my clock back before I go to bed on Saturday night, because like Jazzy, I have no desire to stay up till 2 AM just to switch the clock back one hour.
 
Bumping thread as a reminder to all of us who have to set our clocks back.
