Absolutely.

But what I will never understand is, why I always get stuck working that extra hour in the fall when we turn them back, but I'm never working the weekend to spring ahead so I can reclaim my extra hour! LOL

It has been so unseasonably warm here all winter, I will need that extra hour in the evenings to divide all my perennials which are all starting to shoot up through the ground!

The one big drawback of longer days....my kids stay up later. By the end of the day, I just need the quiet time :)

Woohoo indeed! Thanks for the reminder, so busy I had forgotten. Should have known, let the dogs out at 6 and it was so bright out. (I love early mornings in summer, up at 4 or 5, enjoying the quiet with a cup of coffee outside.) Only downside is it will be pitch dark again at 6 with the time change, but gets better every day. ;)

Long days of sun are heavenly! :)

YAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the longer days. I hate leaving work at 6pm and it's totally pitch black outside. I find it so depressing.

Longer days...baseball...ahhhhh.....love it!

Yes, I love it! I actually took the day off work just to "celebrate" the day.

I like waking up with the sun, so the change is a little disconcerting in the beginning.

Good idea Jennifer!!

thanks for the heads up, I hadn't realized it's on march 11.

I find it makes a world of difference as far as wanting to go out at night
as opposed to cocooning because it's so dark and cold.

I am also looking forward to it. I don't care if it's dark when I get up, but I love having more daylight after work.

I can hardly believe that it is so soon. It almost feels like winter never happened, it has been so mild. The only bad thong about the end of winter (such as it is) is all the projects I did not complete that i said I would do over the winter.

*Completely off topic-

dedtired, I knew you meant thing when you wrote thong. But I once made the same typo with my boss and the sentence was as follows: " I just have to get the thong notarized and I will get it to you as soon as I do that "
So glad she was able to laugh as hard as I was!

And yay, warm weather, flowers blooming, birds chirping- I just love the change of seasons. Even if we had a mild winter- I completely did not mind not having to trek to work in the snow this year. The first year in the last 12 years that I can remember not having to do that.

Now bring on the sunlight!! :)

i love having it light later in the evening!!! i was so happy when 'they' extended the longer days by a month a few years ago...(? geez--how many has it been??)
polly, i remember working overnight a couple of times when we sprang forward and it was wonderful to set the clock from 2 to 3!!!

I find it makes a world of difference as far as wanting to go out at night as opposed to cocooning because it's so dark and cold.

So true! Cold isn't a big issue here, but once it's dark I have no desire to leave the house.

We have date night every Friday that dh is home and I'm looking forward to eating out later than 5:30 or 6.

Bad thong -- I didn;t even notice that! Funny.

YES!!! I love it so much. I've been noticing that it's still light when I get home now, which is around 6pm, and it's still light while I cook dinner. But I cxn't wait till full summer, when it's still light at 9:30 pm!

I love it too but my clock reset itself last night not knowing it was leap year so I lost an hours sleep. Uggghhhhh............

Ah, so THAT is why my clock is ahead! I couldn't figure out why it jumped ahead already. Leap Day didn't even occur to me.

Love having more light in the evenings, but really hate that I will be getting up in the dark again.

Looking forward to the longer evenings! I don't care dark or light it is when I get up though.

Can't wait to bust out flops and start painting my toes again. Strange enough, I'm looking forward to buying some new clothes soon. Normally I don't enjoy shopping for clothing but it's been fun lately.

Can't wait. Have to say that with the unseasonably warm temps this past winter, having the daylight end at 5 or so really didn't bother me as much as it normally does. I use my grill year round, but really like it being light later in the day making dinner on the deck a possibility if the weather complies.

shee - enjoy painting those toes now, because in a few short months, you won't be able to see them, lol. Hope your feeling great!

I dislike daylight savings time. ugh. I'm a morning person and love, love, love spring when the sun rises early for me. DST takes that lovely time away from me...and I guess gives it to all of y'all. LOL!

When it's light in the mornings as well in the evenings, I'll be happier.
