Daylight Savings Time affects us all in different ways....some it doesn't affect, but me, I've had a terrible time with it all my life.
Daylight Savings Time was invented many many years ago, to give the Farmers more daylight to harvest crops, and that is the reason....
I've heard many other reasons, but they are untrue...actually DST was orinally for the farmers.
Well, I've had it, every time we loose an Hour, it messes with my schedule, makes me tired, and takes me two weeks sometimes to adjust....
also messes with my dogs schedule to....
So, if you want to make a difference, please follow this link and go in and sign the petition to Washington to stop it.
I don't care what time they keep it at, just so they stop it.....
AGain, it affects us all differently, however, it affects a whole lot of people in a negative way and is not good for the body...sytem, etc....so if you hate DST, please go in an sign...

I like it nice and bright in the morning as an early bird. Abolish this.
Me too.
I hate having to turn lights on all over my house when I get up in the morning.
Last week was just about perfect. Light in the morning, light in the evening when I got home from work.
Yesterday,the kiddo left for the school bus in pitch dark again, in an area where we have coyotes and other wildlife roaming around before the sun comes up.
It is ridiculous that any child should have to go to school in the dark.
to all of you, thank you for your comments....you all get reps
I'm for keeping it on DST...don't want to abolish it....
love the extra hours of daylight myself, but to change it back and forth is a stupid as the Repub/democratic Parties...they serve no purpose...LOL....
seriously....thank you
everyone's system or body is different, some people it doesn't bother, but me, sorry to be whinny, but I have MS to begin with and it seriously upsets my system...whataya want from an old lady. Seriously I've had problems with it for years....makes me dizzy, sick, tired....matter of fact a whole lot of people are complaining about it, and it's rather stupid to change the time, keep it on DST? One or the other, I don't care, however, I do like the extra light...
Many thanks to you all for your feedback.
There were some articles stating some studies showed that the Monday after the time change there were increases in heart attacks, suicides, traffic accidents (although DOT claims otherwise) and work accidents and cyberloafing.
I like it.
I change my clocks shortly after dinner (or supper, depending on where you live) Saturday evening, then go to bed at my usual time. I require no period of "adjustment" at all, perhaps because I don't stress over it.
It just isn't any big deal to me.
As for moving, nothing stopping you DLST haters from moving to Arizona where they don't use it!
"But like any totalitarian, you think what you perceive as best for you should be imposed on everyone else."
Doesn't that sort of apply to BOTH sides of the issue?

Add to this, there are a few states that do not honor it: what a pain it is, when you are traveling, just trying to figure out if this state or that is on what time...
You have to do that anyway. Just look at the clock at the airport if your smart phone doesn't correct it automatically.
The anticipation of changing to DST is akin to Christmas morning.
