I’m so sick (literally) and tired of the time changes
I just got my body into a sleeping-bathroom routine and this time change has upended me since I’m leaving for work when my body has gotten used to emptying before leaving for work on the “Fall” Standard time
I can’t deal with this :-( it means I have to wake another extra 1/2-1 hr just to force myself to hopefully move things around sooner to avoid a very uncomfortable 1/2hr drive to work and hope I don’t have a bathroom attack. This in turn makes me need to go to bed earlier in the evening and I don’t get a da$m thing done anymore….Aughhh!!!
I came to the site today….because I needed some inspiration again
Thank you for being here…

I hear you. Daylight savings time has never been a good idea. The disadvantages have always outweighed the advantages for most people, but as you've probably noticed, once laws are enacted, they are almost never rescinded.

Well, here in Arizona we don't change!!! Drives me crazy though because they seem to want to say we are Mountain Time..but that's only half the year! Pacific Time the other half of the year.. When we are Pacific and I hear someone say we are "Mountain Time"-I tend to give them a bunch of grief and ask if we are the same time as Albuquerque/Denver and Cheyenne then? Blank look!!! Oh, we are the same as Los Angeles and Seattle? Then we are PACIFIC at this exact moment!
Doesn't mean much other than when you are trying to make an appointment to deal with someone in another time zone and they give the time zone option. Then I have to figure out where exactly we are time zone wise...

I live in Arizona too. We are on year round Standard time, and it's great! And while most folks want to have the same time year-round, they can't agree on whether it should be year-round Standard time, or year-round Daylight Savings Time. So the politicians will never pass a bill to make it uniform across the country, because of the controversy and not wanting to upset a big group of voters, no matter what time is picked!

I hadn’t thought about the grief AZ residents would have!
I wish for Standard Time so bad ……. I’m not sure what goes through the minds of those wanting DST I really need that hour in the Winter months….the days are so short in the Pacific Northwest anyway it makes a real difference here.
Anyway… the feeling of having a bit of flare brings a flood of unhappy memories so I appreciate the words right now.
Hugs
