Day Light Savings Time email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge3 months ago

Does anyone know when day light savings time starts again? I haven't a clue but thought it happened in the month of September but maybe it's October, I'm not sure. I hate it when it happens for it screws me up for about two or three weeks but the damned government of ours started it so they'd have more day light after work to go golfing. What a reason, eh? rolleyes It's hard enough to get used to the days getting shorter in the winter, so why make it worse?

Does it mess you up when the time changes? Do you remember how it goes? My mom told me how to remember. It's Spring Forward and Fall Back.

Now all mylotters can be sure to set their clocks back on hour---


myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

Yup! Don't want to be an hour early to anything especially a doctors appointment when they make us wait so long as it is.


myLot reputation of 85/100. Hatley (20601)   ranked 122 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

hi well I have been so lucky with my primary care doctor as when I have an appointment for two o' clock, they call me within five
to ten minutes.when I am sent to some specialist I have
had to wait as long as half an hour or more.it just fries'me
to think that they cannot stick to the appointments they
give us and make us wait,and wait.


myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

Isn't that the truth Hatley! My primary doctor takes me back within a few minutes too but a specialist, yeah, we wait and wait and wait some more, as if we have all darned day to wait on HIM/HER..... NOT.

hi catsanddogs it is sometime in October I believe, it used'to be earlier like September but they changed,anyway I like the fall one as we get our hour back again. they should have left it
alone to start with, as I have never understood the reason
for daylight savings time anyway. None of us peons ever
wanted it, so who did come up with the idea and why?


myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

My understanding is that the government started it so they had an extra hour to go golfing after work. I too like the fall one because it's the RIGHT time. whiteheather said it changes again on Nov 1st this year. I've always known it to be in September or October. It's strange to be so late in the year this year.

I just asked this question today and no one could answer me. I also can't stand when it happens. I never heard the golfing reason. I did know Bush decided to change it while he was in office, so know I have no idea.


myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

Oh it had been going on waaaaay before Bush was in office. It's been going on in my childhood days and I'm 45 years old. According to whiteheather, it changes again on November 1st. Kind of late in the year this year but it is what it is, ya know?

It is never on a Monday in the USA. ALWAYS on a Sunday:
Daylight Saving Time Will End on November 1, 2009
During Daylight Saving Time, clocks are turned forward an hour, effectively moving an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening.
www.squidoo.com/daylightsavingstime

BTW the end at 1200AM SUNDAY Nov 1, 2009. That why we always turn our clock back At bed time on the Saturday night 11:59PM.

I just looked it up on my calendar and it says that it is on Nov.2. That seems a bit late. I looked it up also on the internet and it says the very same thing. It seems like it should be in September or October. I have heard of the spring forward and fall back also.


myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

Really? Then all of us above have it wrong, but just by a day though. whiteheather said it changes again on Nov 1st. I've always known it to be in September or October. It's strange to be so late in the year this year. It's really going to mess up Thanksgiving and Christmas this year. Maybe next year it'll be earlier like we're used to.

yep i used to have to remember that saying all the time when living in ohio. the kids would sometimes be late for school, etc. i'd watch news, ask friends and neighbors and so on. these days people where iam never have to remember as Arizona never changes the time. only time we need to know is when calling long distance.


myLot reputation of 95/100. CatsandDogs (5125)   ranked 3 out of 1,102 in sharing of knowledge  3 months ago

Arizona doesn't change their time? Wow, I know there's one other place, I think up north somewhere that doesn't either. I'd be confused if I lived on the border of either states. lol Can you imagine that? to go into the next state, it would be this time and home state to be this time. Bizarre. Well the person above you checked the internet and found it to be Nov 2nd. All the others above think it's Nov 1st.... a day difference....
