It never bothered me until I became a parent, like many things, but now it wrecks us for weeks. <br /><br />I had an identical bedtime discussion with my oldest yesterday.

The first means stay in bed until you see this on the clock, and the second means when you see this, it's bedtime. Augie was complaining about going to bed with the sun out, but his mom showed him the clock. Not saying it works perfectly; they can always come up with other reasons to not be in bed. :-)Nancy/BLissed-Out Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17223278142557533175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-32876656718411408452012-03-15T12:23:30.883-06:002012-03-15T12:23:30.883-06:00DST worked in my favor...now that baby goes to bed...DST worked in my favor...now that baby goes to bed at 8 instead of 7 so she actually gets to play with daddy before bed and I get some day time to myself.<br /><br />I still hate it though.<br /><br />What really bugs me is that it's actually Daylight Saving Time, not Daylight Savings Time.

I had forgotten it was changing this past weekend & so Monday afternoon I am reading stuff on facebook and they are all talking about the time change and I completely freaked because I realized I had not changed any of our clocks & if I was wrong then I was about to miss my son's bus which means a 35 minute ride back to base and a phone call to my husband to pick him up. So I start freaking out, running around getting my other two ready to go and then I did a local time search. Ya we don't change ours until the end of the month for some insane reason.
