I hate that it is dark again when I leave for work, but I do love the extra daylight in the evening.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08210045352610490115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-87220055960732053022021-03-20T08:05:31.525-05:002021-03-20T08:05:31.525-05:00Ugh, DST is unnecessary and just plain hard.

We go through the 'change' here in Switzerland next weekend...not looking forward to my recovery. I love Mitalsky poem. :)Bridget Mageehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185985167366724404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-54210865428835102072021-03-20T07:07:53.438-05:002021-03-20T07:07:53.438-05:00Yup.

Took a nap after school, went to bed early, slept through the night. I think my inner clock is finally reset. Hate it. Great sleep poem, though!

I can sleep but keep waking up so, so early! I wish someone could put this to a vote!

And especially since we live in the tropics and our day length varies so little during the year. We have 11 hours of daylight in December and 13 in June. No need for DST, please!!
