I wasn't here last Sunday when everyone "fell back" for Daylight Savings. This evening is my first experience with this year's getting dark super-early thing. It sucks. . . as usual.
It is now 6 pm and my mind thinks that it is like 8 or 9. 
This is one more reason why I hate the winter. I don't like the cold. I despise snow. And I really hate it getting dark so early. It totally messes with my perception of what time it is and it screws with my depression. 
I should start tanning again. I already have a nice tan now from my vacation. If I go once or twice a week to maintain it, I'll keep the great color and get a boost from the extra light exposure. I've done it in the past and it has helped.

I have to turn around my whole life! Working outside and walking for an hour cant be late in the day anymore. Writing and in house work can`t be done in the morning or mid day. Winter really messes me up. I do not have depression problems.

I'm with you in hating winter, cold, snow, and it getting dark earlier. It's just barely started and I am counting down the days till spring. Sorry you had to come home to it getting dark so early, that would be tough!
