Woke up at 6:40am

Freaked because I forgot to set my alarm was going to be late for work

Rushed around a few minutes until I realized today is Sunday and the clocks moved forward

Yeah

-Slept good. Was sleeping soundly when the alarm went off at 7:30.
-Just picked up Starbucks, headed back home to pick up the fam for church.
-Lunch at my momma's, she is picking up C.J.'s barbecue. -Travel work and taxes this afternoon.

This is the day the Lord has made!

Finally had a good night sleep! Rain totals are disappointing, but hopefully we'll get more.

Don't miss DST. Full time ST is great.

Got home Saturday night after horrible 12 hour shift.

Ordered pizza, ate, in bed by 0830.

Up at 0530 after excellent nights sleep

Another 12 hour shift. Y'all have a great Sunday and hope I don't see you in the ER

DST is way better than standard. Unless you like it getting dark at 5PM

Full daylight at 5AM until 8PM in the summer.

That it's not dark at 5PM. Isn't that what you said?

Talking about winter when we are in standard time and it gets dark stupid early.

Yes, let's leave it to the 70 year olds who go to bed at 9 to determine what time is reasonable for it to get dark

Without DST, the sun would set before 7pm in Dallas by the latter part of August. In early June, it would be 7:30. **** that, old man

I'm old but go to bed at midnight. Not sure what your point is. I hear people gripe about the change. I was offering my opinion I like not changing.

I don't have a strong preference. It's the switching I loathe. Especially as a Dad to 3 young kids.

I was actually up at 2am when it changed to 3am.
I was not ready for that.
It was like a gut punch.
I couldn't fall asleep after that.
I might have to take the week off now.

Studies show the same amount of daylight each day either way.

Yeah yeah yeah, and we also all know that's just not how most business hours, school hours, and all sorts of other activities operate. They don't flex with it. So we have the sun rising at 5ish AM and setting at 7ish or we can do DST. I'd be good with DST all the time, but there are a lot of nancies who don't want to send kids to school in the dark in January

I like digging into other people's lives. Does your mom live in B/CS? I remember that you're from Mid County (Port Neches, maybe?) and had thought that she still lived there.

I survived the leap forward again. I actually like Daylight Savings Time, as it was before 2007. It now ends too late in the fall. I don't want to do away with it though, and I certainly don't want to go through a full winter with it.

Forgot to set my alarm, and I overslept. Funny thing is, I remember setting it when I set my alarm clock forward an hour last night. I still need to do my grocery shopping, and I need more caffeine on the way there. Hello 44oz Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar. "Only" $1.59 at Breaktime. I can remember when the Circle K on Longmire (early 90s/across the street from Sevcik's) had 64oz refills for 99 cents. Tanya and I would take 2 liter bottles there and refill them.

No A&M baseball game today, so I'm watching Lamar at SFA. I was a regular at Olsen Field from 1991 to 2013, but before I ever set foot in Olsen, I was a little kid watching Lamar games at Vincent-Beck Stadium. Never been to SFA's ballpark, but it's a beautiful setting.

Yes that is where I'm from.

They moved here before my daughter was 2, so 14+ years here. They were in Livingston for a few years before that

Just call it Devil's Time. It has no logical function and is an invention of the government. It's a stupid concept.

Just realized Mom died 19 years ago today. I've missed her every day since. She was only 62.

Must not be a fan of daylight
Hey Nav

Yes, you are so very correct.

I rely on the government for my daylight.Without them , I have less "daylight".

What a concept.
