Daylight Saving Time Begins Sunday, March 12, 2023

Daylight Saving Time begins tomorrow. When I was working in an office, this was one of my favorite days of the year because it meant I could spend more time outside after work.

Now that I am retired, it really doesn’t matter to me because I can be outside anytime of the day that I want. I just anxiously wait for the warmer weather to settle in for the season so I can be outside!

Remember, set your clocks ahead one hour before bed Saturday evening, March 11. You don’t want to miss church on Sunday!

Daylight Saving Time Arrives – Tomorrow

My favorite time of year is coming soon. Tomorrow begins Daylight Saving Time at 3 a.m. Of course, I think I will sleep right through it until time to get up for church at 6 a.m.

This is my favorite time of year because it means if we have snow or other wintry weather, it will melt sooner than in the winter months, warmer days are coming, and I happen to enjoy the extra hours of sunlight at the end of the day. Before I retired, I especially enjoyed it because I could come home from work and enjoy the outdoors a few hours before dark. Also, it meant days off in warm weather were coming soon!

Tonight before bed, turn the clocks one hour forward. “Spring Forward!”

Daylight Saving Time Begins!

A-h-h-h-h Spring! According to the calendar, the first day of Spring is next Saturday, March 20! Tomorrow begins Daylight Saving Time once again! For that, I am happy! Why? It usually means the really cold weather is gone, no more snow or ice storms, and warmer weather is on the way. We have had some snowstorms in late March, I remember a few in early April too, but they melt away very fast- a great way to celebrate snow, here today and gone tomorrow.

Being retired from a career of 33 years and having more time at home, my schedule has changed to where I can be outside more than ever before. The time change means the days will be warmer soon and I can get out with my dog to enjoy whenever I want which is a blessing!

Don’t forget-

Spring forward

One hour before bed tonight!
