I am looking forward to more daylight in the evening, therefore I can forego an hour on Sunday if that's what it takes.

After this yearly occurence of setting the clock ahead, I really begin to feel like spring is around the corner especially when I see a few bulbs peeping out of the ground.

The rain over the last few days washed away most of the snow, so I am even more hopeful. Yes time to get outdoors and play in the dirt.

Do you have a garden? if not start one, you don't need a lot of space but you will be thrilled with the yield.

Don't forget to change the clock, do it Saturday night before going to bed.

Have a delightful and productive spring.

Looking forward to spring and daylight savings but not losing the hour.  I could really use that hr this weekend -wish it was next weekend.  But, overall, this is a good thing.

I like the idea that Spring is around the corner but really wish that the time would stay constant all year.

Stephen me too, time to get rid of the cold weather.

Debbie so you have something to look forward to in the fall, you will get the hour back:) Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Dr, Stacey I think I have gotten use to the time change, it is sort of expected as spring approaches.

George my suggestion is that you just sleep in and you won,t notice the lost:)

Jennifer, you live in New York, so you still have some snow. Spring will be sweet when it arrives.

Ted it rain this week and washed away almost all the snow.   I was feeling good until a few minutes ago; there  was a mention of possible snow on Friday.   I know spring will get here soon:)

Ah yes, I remember the clock-changing routine from years past.  With day length not varying much here in Hawaii, there isno reason to change clocks so it's not done here.  It does add an hour time difference between here and the mainland which makes communication more difficult.

I love the "springing forward" bit and really look forward to the longer daylight time.  It just feels better to me.  Plus we just had a great weather weekend.  Beautiful sunshine, Carolina blue skies and temps in the high 60's and it actually got to 70.  Hopefully we are finished for the season of bitter cold and snow!
