Daylight Saving Time

[Dustparticle]

This weekend is Daylight Saving Time. They said we gain extra hour sleep by turning our clock back one hour.  But, for me I get an extra hour of sleep also an extra hour eating chocolate too.

Go ahead and change your clocks a week early so you aren't choco-late...🤣

Maybe you should do as I did in 1986.....quit chocolate, just leave it. It's been great since. Less of an obsession.

Quit eating chocolate is not the the right combination. Why? Because chocolate has to quit me.

For years, countries and provinces and states have all been considering whether or not we should just forget about changing our clocks twice a year, and remain on one time standard for the whole year. Some favour staying on Daylight Time, others say Standard Time would be better. It has been said that things would be a lot simpler, and it would have many benefits if there was no time change. In the province of Ontario (Canada), police warn drivers to be extra vigilant while driving immediately following the change to Standard Time. Traffic accidents increase dramatically every year at that time! Psychologists say that the change in time results in increased mental problems, sleep problems, and concentration problems.

 

On the other hand, some parents worry about their children going to school while it's still dark if Standard Time is eliminated. I guess there are arguments for both sides. For that reason, the debates about it continue...

I would love to see it eliminated.
