...we're losing, right?...

This coming weekend marks the beginning of Daylight-Saving Time.
Spring forward...

Rumour has it that changing the clock disrupts sleep patterns. Has anyone noticed that...or anything else that gets altered by having a 23-hour day?

This change really messes me up! I guess I like the part of now going home at 3 instead of 4 but I don't like going in for 6:30 instead of 7:30 oh well Stays lighter longer.

According to CBC News:
"But beginning in 2007, daylight time will begin earlier and end later in the United States and in most jurisdictions in Canada."

"Daylight time begins in most of Canada at 2 a.m. local time on the second Sunday in March and ends at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday in November."

It's all good.
With today's wind chill factor, anything that brings us closer to spring and warmer weather is a bonus...even if it's just the thought of it.
