Is anyone else suffering from not knowing which end is up after daylight savings time?
I always have trouble figuring out if we are springing forward or falling back or springing back and falling forward, I just don't get it.
A friend of my sister's once told me it was like making a quilt longer by cutting off the bottom and sewing it on the top, which makes no sense, but neither does daylight savings time.
In the old days I would just drink myself silly and sleep the Sunday after the time change and all would be ok, just a little darker in the morning and lighter in the evening. But I can't do that to my kids (I think there are laws or something).
Poor Tim was uber late for work this morning because it was dark when he woke up and he thought he had more time. My kids also went to bed at 5:30 on their internal clocks tonight. Explain that one to a precocious 4 year old.
I am really glad the George W. Bush chose changing Daylight Savings to be his legacy. As if that lovely war of his was not enough.

we have been so fucked by the lethal combo of daylight savings, toddlerdom, and teething....
It's tough! It would seem like one hour would not be a very big deal, but everyone I know who has kids has been talking about how messed up their schedules are.
