Trouble adjusting to clocks changing

It doesn't bother me at all.

When we put the clocks back, it just seems such a long day to me.

It doesn't bother me at all, and I rather enjoy the fact that I have made it through the months since the last time the clocks were adjusted. The older I get, the more I seem to notice the significance of these 'milestone markers' of each passing year - not with any trepidation, but with a sense of satisfaction and optimism about what the next 12 months will bring.

It takes me about a month to get used to it.

It's the other way round for my husband. He detests putting the clock forward in Spring. It upsets his equilibrium something rotten.

GrannySeaside I absolutely hate the darker afternoons. My body is all out of kilter and it takes me a while to adjust.

On the other hand my sister loves the dark nights/afternoons as she likes to close the curtains and cuddle up with her Kindle.

My clocks all change themselves these days. Except the one on the microwave, but there's no accounting for microwaves and I never use it as a clock anyway.

But I did wonder where my extra hour in bed went. I woke up and Xi (my fitness/sleep monitor, which is a Huawei so of course tells a fascinated CCP all about me) said it was after 11 and I thought that was strange, it hasn't changed when it usually does. But of course it had changed, it was just sleepy old me recovering from the flu.

It's my least favourite day of the year, I think.

I struggle to get my head round it, but just accept the new time- until I discover a clock that has not been changed and get completely confused.

It always takes me a while to adjust, it messes with my meds schedule too.

It doesn’t bother me now I’m retired. But it threw me completely out of kilter on one occasion when I forgot to do it after arriving home from work exhausted at 10.30pm. Then next morning I turned up at the nursing home where I worked at 5.45am instead of 6.45am. The night staff thought it was hilarious, especially the night nurse who took full advantage of my absent mindedness and went home an hour early !

oh no. it seems like a windfall, to get an extra hour.
