Ends this week! For those that observe the clocks go back 2AM this Sunday November 2nd.

 

 

Daylight Saving Time (DST) is a way of making better use of the natural daylight by setting your clock forward one hour during the summer months, and back again in the fall.

Clocks back or forward?

To remember which way to set your watch, keep in mind“spring forward, fall back”. You set your clock forward in the spring when DST starts (= lose one hour), and back one hour when DST ends in the fall (= regain one hour)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

      You know, there is  much confusion

 

about setting time forward or backwards (as if).

 

                    I could just as easily  

 

           fall    forward    and    spring    back

 

                                     as      

 

            fall   back      and     spring forward.

Sweet dreams tonight, y'all, in all our time zones.

DD,

That is horrible. Mine got up to $250 in August, but that included a pool pump. Guess SCE&G isn't as bad as I thought

Mind you, just me in the house most of the time and I turn it up when at work as Poppy likes it warm (hey, she didn't object)

I hate Daylight Savings Time.  Spring or Summer, it throws everything all off.  I say we switch in the Spring 2015 for more daylight, then leave it be for the next 100 years at least.

That is crazy DD - do you have an electronic thermostat - are you home all day? 

I do, and for the most part I am. Even when I am not around I have pets so I leave it on.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
