Don't forget to turn your clocks ahead tonight.
 
This happened many years ago but I still remember it. A friend always forgot about "spring ahead" and so came to church at the wrong time on Sunday morning. Sure enough Sat. night she went to be without adjusting the clocks, but had a dream and got and set them. Her husband came home after she was back to sleep and assumed she forgot again, so he also set them up an hour. Next morning they both figured they would finally be on time for church and not an hour late again. Nope, this time they were an hour early!

I hate the spring ahead. My body is set to the fall back, CST here and I will fight it until we fall back this fall. I can't understand why it can't stay one way or the other. I heard on the radio Friday that it is for the stores, they figure people will be out shopping with the extra hour of daylight. I always heard before it was because of the farmers needing to work the extra hour of daylight. Sounds like both are made up, who knows the truth. BTW your story is funny.
