We treat daylight savings like fight club," first rule about daylight savings is you don't talk about daylight savings". Or just think about it as Snow check pricing, " first rule about snow checking pricing is you don't talk about snow check pricing".
Any other ideas would be good. With a 3 and 5 year old daylight savings is the worst time of year for a couple weeks.

I could do without the time change.

I'm with Ron on this one. But adding a little information on the subject: we raised 4 boys and not only did we have to deal with the time change, we had to deal with near to 24 hour daylight and to compound the problem the neighbours did not having the same routine for their children that we did (not that we expected them to but you know what I mean).

Our goal was to keep them sooo busy that they were good and tired when they went to bed. We didn't need the tin foiled windows (the sun shining in) nor the windows closed (for the noise of the neighbourhood kids), as most nights our kids were so tired they fell asleep pretty fast. We found it a lot harder to deal with the teenage hormones than the time change.

Isn't parenting fun?????

You wouldn't think that 1 hour would be a big deal.... but statistically tomorrow (Monday) will have a much greater rate of car accidents, workplace accidents and generally cranky people.... it gets better as the week goes on but there is an elevated risk all week....

For everyone outside the snowmobile world spirits should be high by the weekend with expected temperatures of +16C in Edmonton.

It's only an hour people.. has anyone complained in the fall about the extra hour?

I myself think the 5:04 am sunrise and the 10:07 sunset is awesome. At least we enjoy the daylight this way.
