is really doing a number on me right now. I LOVE the fact that it is light later, but for the first week or two, it really messes up my built-in body clock. Here it is going on 1:00am, but my body tells me it's only going on 12:00am, so here I sit, STILL awake and... all alone. I wake up in the mornings all groggy and sleepy because once I go to bed, I still can't fall asleep for a LONG time, yet I'm getting up about the same time as before the time change occurred. Stupid, isn't it?

We have had 2 votes taken here and thankfully we are one of the two states that does NOT have DLS. I believe more of the coastal city people would like it, especially further north, but there are still enough of us country folks voting no to stop it.

There are a few states here that don't have it, I think. But, like I said, I like it in a way because it's light out later. It's not bad once you get used it, but it's the getting used to it part that's tough...lol I'll be alright in a week a two... at least until it changes back in the fall.

Ohhhhhhh! ILOVE Day Light Saving Time. I LOVE that it is 7 PM and the sun is still up. But i agree with Tina, it takes a couple days to get used to it. However the adjustment is WAY better than when we "Fall Back"a dn it's dark by 5 PM.

I agree with the post above! I can't wait until it gets dark really late!

Lol well I hate it and I'm glad we don't have it. Guess I'm what you'd call a red neck country person lol.

My body is still running on old schedule, which is annoying, seeing how I have to be up at 7:30am every week day.

Ugh... that's what my problem is too. I don't HAVE to get up at a certain time, but I'm still getting up at the same time, even though I'm not falling asleep until MUCH later. I also agree with you, Holley, on the one in the fall. Jo, get with times, Woman!
