I do seem to feel better during DLT but I think it's really because it's spring & summer & has nothing to do with the time showing on the clock. I just wish we would stay one time year round and stop the back & forth changing. THAT stresses me - and it gets worse the older I get...

I,too, wish the time did not change; I don't like DST. It takes me weeks to adjust.

I too wish there was never a time change. Growing up we never seemed to have a problem with the time. I personally can't understand the need-except for some who want the day to be longer during the summer - which it isn't just the time is an hour different-makes no real sense.

I am over the moon over the time change coming up. I lost my DH last summer and right about the time we got off of DST, my eye doctor limited me to daytime driving. From Thanksgiving to MLK Day, I felt like I had been dropped into a bottomless pit or, even worse, had been told to take 12 giant steps toward the rest home. I am a morning person but I felt so trapped by those 8 hours of daylight. I couldn't do anything at night, even church activities. I live in a remote part of the county. Funny thing, now that we're about to move into more afternoon daylight and it doesn't matter as much, I see the eye doc this week and she says I am OK for night driving. I think the good Lord has missed me at evening church activities, LOL!

I have had a bad case of "winter doldrums" and I am soooooooo looking forward to the time change. Some of us really need that daylight. I envy those of you who are winter people. I am like a turtle in winter Want to pull into my shell and hibernate. Hurray for Spring
