    I was looking at my computer and it does not match the time. Guess I need to shut her down and reboot to get it. So I have to make up for an hour and then I'll be caught up again. ROFL. Why or why do we change times?????

    I'd like to know that also. It's been proven that it doesn't save energy. I hate it.

    I was so mad about this. I went to bed at 2 a.m. and thought I was in an episode of Lost or something because as I made my way from the living room to the bedroom it was suddenly 3 a.m.

    then I was up on a Sunday when there was nothing to do but clean and quilt at 7 a.m. - meaning 6 a.m. if it was yesterday.

    Now I've lost an hour of my day! Maybe I'll just leave all the manual clocks set where they are and pretend....

    YOu are all so funny. I like the longer days though. More time to get home from the Guild meetings before dark. I just feel like I should be compensated for them taking my hour. Maybe a Fat qtr????? ROFL
