Things I loathe:
Things I love:
I have such a love/hate relationship with that dumb button on my alarm clock. Sure it lets me get a bit more sleep, but it also makes me 9 minutes later than I wanted to be in the first place. Maybe I wouldn't be tempted to stay in bed longer if I didn't have a warm snuggly husband next to me. I think I'll give him a good push out of bed tomorrow morning to see if that helps.
Speaking of alarm clocks, the kids have discovered them. Victoria bought one awhile back, no big deal. Now the younger kids have discovered that their Nintendo DSs have alarm clocks. Kinda cool on school days, having them wake themselves up. Not so cool on the weekends when one child sets it for 6am and decides everyone else needs to get up with them.
]]>Love it or hate it, many of you lost an hour of sleep last night due to Daylight Saving Time? Worth It? Do you like it more/less now that Daylight Saving Time occurs earlier (and later) in the year?
I love having more daylight. I hate feeling like crap because my body thinks it got up at 4am even though the clock said 5am. I've had 3 cups of coffee this morning, a cup of green tea, a glass of Emergen-C, and a bowl of Total all in a vain effort to get some energy.
It's also frustrating because the younger kids tend to go to bed later because they have a hard time going to sleep when it's still light out. Although they tend to play outside more, so that's a good thing. They get all their energy out and aren't inside bouncing off the walls and running down the hallway. They were feeling the effects of the time change this morning. I could tell they were dragging this morning, but their attitudes were good for the most part.
