I think it is ridiculous to have everyone adjust clocks twice a year!

It just goes to show that once the govt implements something, it never goes away.

It doesn't bother my husband - he can go to bed at any time and wake up in 8 hours. Not me, my internal clock doesn't work like that. I am a night owl, and if I go to bed at 9:30 I am awake at 2 am like it's morning, and wide awake. Very annoying. Luckily I am retired and it's not an issue until I start taking care of my new granddaughter in April. I do hope it stays on DST.

Just dealt with 2 dogs, and DH confusion, at least the dogs just look at me expectantly, the DH keeps asking What Time is it Really ???? ;)
Please pick one, Canada will never make the decision util US does.
