:idontno: Are we still falling back an hour this weekend??? I know there had been talk of extending daylight savings time until either the end of October or November! I guess that fell by the wayside huh! Haven't seen anything else mentioned about it in several months!

I always thought Daylight Savings Time ended at the end of October :idontno:. My calendar says that it will take place on October 29.

DST starts 4 weeks earlier and ends 4 weeks later starting in 2007.

President Bush signed into law the Energy Policy Act, which extends Daylight Saving Time (DST) by four weeks from the second Sunday of March to end on the first Sunday of November. Extended Daylight Saving Time will begin in March 2007.

I get off from work at 4:00 every afternoon except for Friday. We leave at 3:00 on Fridays so I at least won't have to worry about the driving home in the dark!

I knew I had heard mention of that but wasn't sure that anything else had transpired concerning that. I am glad to learn of that.

The only thing I like about fall DLST is how much I appreciate when we spring forward again!

:D Man, I love the change of the leaves, the cool feel to the air. Not crazy about spring because I know hot weather is coming and my allergies will be following right behind it! Fall is my favorite season! Don't mind winter either!

Me too!!! And if the new DST means longer days sooner than I'm all for it!!! I don't like fall much because I know it means winter is coming. :( We also have terrible allergies in the fall...ragweed and mold. ugh. So we look forward to the first hard frost to kill all that stuff. I live for summertime. :wub:

I feel the same OL. Fall is beautiful and it is refreshing after hot and humid summer days, but there is something about fall that makes me a bit depressed. It seems everyone has more funn in the summer, plus in the winter I get so pale. Mr. dbuck says I turn so white I'm blue. :lolabove:

I am absolutely with you girls!!!!! I used to live for Halloween candy, but alas, that's gone by the wayside, and for that matter, so has the big Thanksgiving overload, and Christmas food no longer holds that much appeal, so I say...ENDLESS SUMMER!!!!

My hair frizzes when it's hot, but I'd rather it do that than have all that static!!! And, like I've always said, brown fat is better than white fat, so again I say....ENDLESS SUMMER!!!
