They never have even 30 minutes to get outside to enjoy it to run and play and get rid of that built up school energy. Praying it passes to get on and stay on. Thanks Bonnie for all you do making us beautiful quilt patterns. It is so fun to watch the different groups and their choices to sew during their retreats.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301914406977180239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-2284209038572181892022-03-17T17:39:48.715-04:002022-03-17T17:39:48.715-04:00Yes, I say stop changing the clocks twice a year b...Yes, I say stop changing the clocks twice a year but whey choose to stay on the manmade DST.

However, I am reading your blog at 430 am so that confirms I am an early morning person and love standard time. We won't get an extra hour of daylight; it will just lighter longer in the evening and darker in the morning. So, I wish they had left year round where it "should" be; hah, I am not in charge here and will have to adjust. And for those who have early morning chores in winter, it will be challenging.southcedarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14745017200203053058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-30869227797353231032022-03-16T23:54:58.305-04:002022-03-16T23:54:58.305-04:00I can't drive in the dark either, but still wo...

Kids can't adjust very well. Why do thet have to go to bed when it's still light out? Messes me up as well. <br /><br />Gorgeous quilts once again. Really love the purple log cabin chain. Wow!

However, I would prefer it be standard time.

I just have to speak up about DST as my opinion is to stick with Standard time. It is ridiculous that we change clock times twice yearly; however, several studies have shown that for most people sticking with standard time is healthier. It is more in tune with our circadian rhythms.<br />Regardless of opinion, I agree that the most important thing is for us to quit changing those clocks!<br /> Bonnie, you are truly a ray of sunshine on a daily basis - no matter the time of day.

I wonder if AZ will become part of the pacific time zone?<br /><br />I know lots of people are tired of winter but we really need it to continue in Idaho. The snow pack is abysmal and our farmers are at high risk of a poor season. Last year water was shut off mid September and many crops were lost and Farmer's Market folks couldn't grow fall crops. Many families suffered. Please pray for more snow here!Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06918153566288679035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-40627723831607821772022-03-16T10:06:55.096-04:002022-03-16T10:06:55.096-04:00Daylight Savings - we're the only country that...Daylight Savings - we're the only country that changes time like this, yes?
