With daylight savings time change, are you still waking up on the "old" time? email this discussion to a friend?

We supposedly got an extra hour of sleep with the daylight savings time change, but instead I am waking up on old time and getting an extra hour to do stuff in the morning!! Funny how our bodies will set their own alarms!

In any case, I'm glad the time changes at this time of year in our favor. Being able to wake up a little "later" is much easier than having the hour taken away from us.

How is your body reacting to the time change?

I seem to be waking up when my body seems it is ready to wake up and that is still the time it was a week ago. I woke up this morning around 6:30 instead of 7:30, I think i would really like to wake up at 7:30 as i don't work and i don't have much to do around the house until everyone is home. I did get up and started writing an article and doing stuff her eon the internet instead of laying in bed thinking of what to do.

There of course is laundry and to empty the dishwasher today, but i think im just putting it off and not wanting to do it yet, but i have done some stuff like wrapped Christmas presents and put them in a closet that no one goes into so i can start on that and get it done and not worry about it all.

Ha! That sounds like me this morning! I haven't been sleeping well this past week, so I slept at a decent hour last night . . . but I woke up at 6:30 instead of 7:30 like I wanted to!!!!!! I totally wanted to sleep, but I was just wide awake . . . so I ended up getting up too (no sense in laying in bed staring at a blank wall, right - might as well be productive!). That's a good idea to start wrapping the holiday gifts . . . I should have thought of that (the gifts are stashed in our closet too).

Imade sure to turn my clock back on Halloween night. I even told a few people not to forget. Our bodies never seem to get used to the time change, even though we readjust every six monthshappy


myLot reputation of 99/100. much2say (672)   ranked 91 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

We changed our clocks back on Halloween night too!! But even if we had forgotten, the good thing is we would have still gained an hour! I'd rather adjust to this time than the one we have in Spring - if we miss that one, we're already an hour late! That Spring time change is a killer! shockedhappy

I would probably be waking up an hour earlier if I was able to get myself to go to sleep at night. As it stands right now, I'm having problems falling asleep at night so I am still waking up at the "old" time. My goal for tonight is to go to bed earlier so that I can get up earlier in the morning tomorrow because my nieces are going to be here all day and I need to make sure that I am functional when they come for the day. Although, if I can't do it I can always lay down with them once they get here. Neither of them are morning girls either and typically go back to sleep once their mother gets them here.


myLot reputation of 99/100. much2say (672)   ranked 91 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

I think I have been sleeping at "old time", therefore I've been waking up at "old time" as well. I've been having problems sleeping too (the preggo thing). Hope we both get to sleep earlier tonight! Oh, you sound like you have a very busy day ahead of you tomorrow. That's amazing your nieces would go back to sleep once they get to your place . . . then you are most fortunate you can sneak in a nap too!! happy

myLot reputation of 99/100. much2say (672)   ranked 91 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

doormouse - you're too funny! Did it help on Sunday when you got that extra hour to potentially sleep in? Hope you get some extra energy! lol


myLot reputation of 94/100. doormouse (1144)   ranked 96 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

our clocks changed the week before,didn't you see my post that i messed up and had to apologize for


myLot reputation of 99/100. much2say (672)   ranked 91 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

Oh, I think I did see your post . . . but I assumed that you said that because I thought you were in the UK (I think they had the daylight savings time change a week before us in the US). I didn't read the apologetic one . . . oops!

It seems like I never go to sleep at exactly the same time and I do have spells of sleeplessness. It is difficult for me to remain aleep for much longer than 5 hours. Sometimes I fall right back to sleep and other times I just get up an make a pot of coffee.


myLot reputation of 99/100. much2say (672)   ranked 91 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

I guess the people with those internal alarm clocks are the routine sleepers - sleeping at the same time, waking up at the same time. I sleep, but I do wake up every 3 hours it seems. Wow - do you make a pot of coffee and just stay up the rest of the time?


myLot reputation of 98/100. muscles4me (8725)   ranked 134 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

Yes,I usually do saty up once I can not sleep anylonger. Unless I am sick(thank God thats not often) I do not like to stay in bed.


myLot reputation of 99/100. much2say (672)   ranked 91 out of 19,282 in questions & answers  1 month ago

Wow, muscles4me! I guess I tend to stay in bed and try to lay still . . . thinking that at some point I would fall asleep again (if I can't sleep). I know it's hard to "try" to sleep when you know you'd be more successful getting up and being productive. Well, hope you get some good sleep tonight!
