The US has another week to go. We don't change until 11/6.

In Canada we don't change the clocks until the 1st Sunday in November either! Good thing I posted this thread, otherwise I'd be an hour behind the rest of the world!!!

I got confused for a moment

, but it is next week. It used to be end of October. Now first week of November.

Europe switched back early this morning, so the reminder is good for people living on the eastern side of the Pond.
Poor Jamie couldn't understand why his automatic feeder didn't open at 5 a.m.. He can't go to sleep till he's seen me fill and set it.

Same here, and it is just wonderful.

Of course. there is a small group of deviants..er misguided souls who want to go back to changing time twice a year, but a gov't poll shot them down. The fools wanted to go back to the old time zone lines where, in some areas, you have to leave an hour early to get to someplace east of your house on time, even a five minute drive. There was a decision made in the early 60s NOT to change time because of the division of the province, and it has been working well and it does not need fixing.

Argh gave me a fright! I had an 8am appointment to give insulin this morning, that would have been a bad moment to forget daylight savings time.

The only way I remember the new change is because when the US was talking about changing, the candy companies were lobbying to have it happen after Halloween. More light in the evening meant more trick-or-treating and thus more candy sales.

Holy smokes, I almost jumped into the car and raced to the airport... thought I was an hour behind!

i talked to my mom in Germany and she reminded me that we're a week late

I got worried for a minute!

I wondered if I lost a week somehow when I saw the thread!

 

[sillyitiliangrl]

I only remember its the first weekend in nov because the year I changed was the year i got married and the late change allowed us to still do outdoor photos lol

So glad you said that right after I read the thread title! I almost had a small heart attack!

(I was certain I had another hour before I had to be anywhere , thankfully I was correct!

)
