Spring Forward. It's Not...

Spring Forward. It's Not..Too Late.

 

Most of our clocks automatically moved ahead, except for the stove, microwave and coffee maker. It's almost impossible to miss anything important anymore, like church, breakfast with friends or showing houses to clients - unless, of course, you sleep in late.

 

🌼 Come on

Spring! 🌸

Benjamin Franklin is credited with the idea for Daylight Saving Time back in 1784, but the idea was not implemented until 1895. It did not become law until 1966. Some states do not participate in Daylight Saving Time and continue to run on the same time year 'round.

 

Talks are in the works to do away with DST. If you ask me, I'd say keep it lighter later in the day. Speaking of good day...I wish that for you!

Good morning Wanda,

I had a note on my computer to set my clocks (I have a few that are not automatic) and I always like to reset those the night before. Then when I get up I'm tricked into the new time and never miss a beat. I'm looking forward to more daylight hours this evening!

Wanda Kubat-Nerdin - Wanda Can! it is about half & Half in my house because we still have a few clocks that still need to be changed manually.  Making it one more reason why I am not a fan of time changes.

Am enjoying the fact that it will still be light at 7:30 PM, George Souto! Wish it would remain this way.

Hi Wanda- Thanks to so many digital devices now, we only had to reset our microwave, oven, 2 decorative wall clocks and one of Larry's fun clocks. It was fairly dark this morning when we got up but I do love that it's staying light longer. Time to prepare Nerdin Gardens.

Hi Kathy. In Arizona, we "do nothing" to our clocks. Jeff🙂

Enjoyed more daylight hours today, Kathy Streib. We are getting excited about the 2026 growing season and planning for a better yield than last year, though we had an abundance of fruits and vegetables!

Hi Wanda. In Arizona we are at peace, our clocks do not change. Why stress with the "Spring Forward" and "Fall Back". Life goes on. Jeff 😊

Good morning, Wanda... on that point we need to agree to disagree! I prefer my light early in the morning as I'm always up before the crack of dawn.

Hmm, I know what time it is here since we don't have to change our clocks, but now I have no idea what time it is in other states, so I better do a bit of research to prepare myself, haha.

Waking early is a preference but still wish they'd do away with DST, Nina Hollander, Broker. When it gets dark outside at 5:00PM, it does nothing for me and I detest driving at night!

Your state and Hawaii does not practice DST. Lucky you all are, Brian England!
