Oh, yes, the dreaded day. I've been grumping about it for over a week. To me it means the official end to summer. :( I don't like it getting dark so early.

And, now the countdown begins until I can spring forward!!

I hear ya sista. That day (whenever it is) in the spring is the best ... except for the lack of sleep. I hate the dark so early. bbb

We came pretty close to missing it! Terry made the announcement two days before and I hadn't heard a word about it. I started to do a post last night but didn't. I'll feel badly if someone is messed up because I was too lazy to come in here and type it.

I went to bed early and woke up early so could have my coffee here this morning instead of in front of the bathroom mirror while I get ready for church. So nice.

There sees that there wasn't much booyah about it this year, or else I missed it all. What's up with that? Even my calendar didn't have it listed! bbb

I knew! Like W.E., my vcrs knew a little too early. I thought I was just being dumb and kept taping the wrong shows. It finally dawned on me that they had automatically turned back time.

We watched a movie last night, I played a game on the computer and was all set to go to bed when I realized it was only 8:30 if I set the clocks back. *sigh* I played some more games and read some of my book.

So, did I go to bed at midnight or 11:00pm? I get so confused. I thought I was supposed to get an extra hour of sleep? If so, why did I wake up at 6:00am?

I had the same problem. For some reason I couldn't remember if I got an extra hour of sleep or lost one. Our power went out a couple of days ago and I didn't reset the clocks, knowing I'd have to redo them again last night. If it wasn't for the cell phone and computer, I'd be somewhere in the Twilight Zone right now. It's just too much, I tell you. Too much! bbb

I heard it during the Yankee game or else I wouldn't have known. Then again I knew it had to be soon. I have one old VCR and it changed back 2 weeks ago (lol)!!

Funny about the VCR! They change the time and they don't update the VCR settings. I wonder if people in AZ and IN have to grumble when their stuff moves time when they don't? bbb
