Readers don’t forget to set your clocks back because Daylight Savings Time is ending this week-end and residents of the U.S. will go back to Standard Time at 2 a.m. on Sunday, November 3, 2013.
So don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour Saturday night before going to bed or the first thing on Sunday morning turn over and set your clock for another hour of sleep.
I always remember to spring forward in the spring and to fall back in the fall. I don’t know about you but I love that extra hour of sleep and I feel like I’m getting pampered too. I’ll stay up on Saturday night because I have another hour to watch television because I can sleep another hour in the morning. It gives me a fuzzy feeling of acquiring an extra hour of life when in actuality I’m getting back what I lost in the spring.
Isn’t it a great feeling when people feel like they’re in for something special? It’s like waiting for something you’ve cherished and been looking for all your life. A simple task can bring on a change of the mind and make us realize how precious life truly is.
I suggest people lay back and enjoy the gaining of an hour on Sunday and enjoy an extra hour of sleep or get up and enjoy an extra cup of home brewed coffee.
