I do not like Daylight Saving Time.
What time is being saved? Changing a clock does not add or save time. There. I got that said.
The day is shorter for me, as I've lost an hour. You thought I was done with my complaint. So did I. Can you tell I really don't like this? Onward. My spurt of ambition on Friday led to very sore muscles on Saturday. You know you are in bad shape when cleaning a small bathroom leaves you in some serious pain and misery. Yesterday was a sitting and sorting kind of day. I actually put a lot of things where they belong after quite some time being out of place. Like clothing. Ah, the excitement of life in my home.
Since I felt as if I ran the Boston Marathon, dinner was a quick meal of leftover chicken with pasta. The marvelous value of leftovers. It's a warm, sunny day, I feel ok, except the time is off.

I slept about as long as I always do and rose too early as I always do. We saw a moment of weak sunshine on our little walk, so that was a positive.
Yup! I know I am in really bad shape. I am guaranteed to have bad days after a good one where I can get more physical things done.
I also really, really dislike DST. I am all messed up today. Didn't bother me when I was younger and busier. Funny that it drives me crazy for a week or more now--lol!
We shall adjust. No dang choice. ;)
I woke up and didn't even think about the time change until I made coffee and saw the stove was an hour different than my watch that changed automatically.
I'm just happy that it means we are a few days closer to March 20th which signals spring....or more March madness!
I hate the time change too. Now it will stay light until 7:30 at night and it is too cold to be outside.
Your chicken and pasta dish looks delicious. We were lazy and threw a pizza in the oven. Sorry about the pain and misery. Hope you get relief soon.
I hope you start feeling better soon. I would prefer no daylight savings time too.
I'm not a fan of daylight savings time either. It makes both Katie and Jack miserable for a week, messing with their sleep schedules.
Have you tried a hot bath with epsom salts. My massage therapist always tell me to do it and I never do, until I did once, and it worked!
It takes me awhile to adjust to the time change. This morning I was taking a shower at 6 and it was really 5. So tired now!!! Does heat help you when you are sore? And stretches?
I'm with you and I made it even worse by having a grandchild sleepover. I am going to be tired and grouchy all week.
I really don't like the time change at all. I wish they'd leave it alone. And like you, for me a busy day is followed by a tired one.
You have your own time, AC.
Yes, no choice, Rita. But we can still complain!
March Madness was, maybe still is, going on in St. Paul, Val. Big high school hockey tournament. I have one clock I haven't changed.
I lose an hour every morning for a least two weeks, Far Side.
It's improving, Denise. I guess muscles that haven't been used getting sore is a good sign, in that I was able to use them.
I am better, Cheerful. Overworked muscle is painful!
I do have epsom salt, Pixie. Me getting out of a tub could be interesting! DST is hard on children.
I bet you were tired, Lori. The back of my thighs were screaming mad at me. I guess they don't get much use. Both would help, I just sat and suffered!
of, goodie. A tired little kid and time change. Sounds like fun, Miss Merry!
You do tend to keep yourself busy, Boud. Even when Helen acted up.
I wish we could just have standard time year round. I like light in the morning rather than in the night. The change does not take me any time to get use to.
Take Care,
Kaye
It takes me a long time to get used to it, Kaye. I also prefer the light in the morning.
Here in the UK the clocks change at the end of March. And like you, I don't see the point of it, it just means a lot of annoying clock and watch adjustments.
I couldn't agree more, nick!
I hope you are feeling better.
Yep. Leave the time alone, one way or the other. Takes a literal act of congress to change it, so that'll never feckin' happen. Assholes.
Hope you're feeling 100% better.
I am, e. Thanks.
Not 100%, Ami, but better. They are that for sure.
Hope you're feeling less to no pain today. I hate, hate, hate that we still change the clocks twice per year. Just pick one and stick with it. So stoooooopid.
Not a fan of DST time either as now I am getting up later to go to the gym, which thankfully is within the mill building. Getting one or two house keeping tasks done in the week is enough for me. Leftovers are always appreciated here.
I'm doing pretty well, Ivy. I prefer standard time but I cam live with DST if they just stayed with one.
How fortunate to have a gym in your building, Dorothy. Leftovers are like manna from heaven.
