Dealing with the time change

I'm not a fan of Daylight Saving Time. It's not that I've lost an hour of sleep. That really doesn't seem to affect me, but somehow it really messes up my daily routine. I had no time to tat before school, and then after school time just seemed to run away from me. I know things will settle down in a week or so, but for now I'm feeling frustrated with the time change!


I did manage to spend a little time working on Renulek's Spring Doily tonight. One shuttle ran out of thread, so you know what I'll be doing next!

  1. I wish they would stop changing the time, they mentioned on the news that they have more heart attacks with the time change too.

  2. This is sooo beautiful Diane, just like the huge doily in the post below...and all of your tatting as well! Your work just amazes me! Love your adorable headbands too!...I'm not a fan of the time change because it means spring is almost here, (I know... I sound like a crazy person!) but I'm a winter lover at heart. I also really like when it's dark outside at dinnertime! xoxo

  3. I know what you mean, our clocks go forward at the end of March, so we lose an hour but then most of Europe goes forward to so we will still be behind some countries, it's when we go further east to Turkey or parts of Greece and Cyprus that really hits as they are two hours ahead of the UK. Flying out you lose two hours so the flying time looks longer and then when you fly back the flying time looks shorter.
    I wish the clocks did not have to move so much. They said in the UK they move us because Scotish children would be going to school in the dark and at the far north they only have limited daylight.
    Your renuleks mat looks lovely

  5. I always loathed Daylight Saving too, and am very glad that we don't-yet-have it in Queensland. You can always do what I used to do when my children were small: I kept an empty glass jar on the mantelpiece - (we lived in a colder climate then) - and I used to keep all the "saved" hours in it. Them whenever I wanted a little time to myself I used to unscrew the jar and announce that I was going to spend some of my savings. It worked for years and years, they used to leave me alone with my jar of Time.....

  6. I'm so glad you mentioned the daylight savings issue. A couple of years ago I never caught up the whole summer. Time was always racing away from me, and I'm afraid I'm feeling that way again. It seems I just woke up and all of a sudden it was 4 in the afternoon! I do like it to be lighter in the evening so I can go for walks, but it still seems dark in the morning for the kids right now.

  8. Most of us here in Saskatchewan are on day light savings time year around and don't have to change our clocks at all. It would certainly be a pain each time it comes around. Your doily is looking beeauutiful!
