How did you spend your extra hour?
Monday, Nov. 2, 2009
There have been several occasions I would love to add more hours to the day. Sometimes there's just not enough time in the day to get everything done. This weekend we got that extra time thanks to the end of daylight-saving time. I've heard some complaints from people that the time change throws off their normal routine. Other people enjoy the extra hour and take advantage of it. Overall, I prefer the earlier sunset. It actually gets dark outside when I need to go to bed to wake up for my morning shift!
