⏰ Daylight Savings - SUNDAY - Nov 2, 2025!!!

Do you like or dislike this TIME CHANGE?  🤔

Well, here we are again - Falling back this weekend 

I have a “Bird Clock” - everybody knows what that is, right ?  Every hour has a different bird sound to mark the hour.  I love it but . . . . 

for the last 25 years, twice a year, I have to reset it and it is not a simple task since you have to do it just like the directions say or all the bird sounds get messed up and the Western Screech-Owl sounds like the Whooping Crane.  Yuck!

So 

1. remove the back of the clock
2. remove the batteries
3. set hands only moving clock-wise to ten minutes to 1:00
4. reinsert batteries
5. set clock to the right time (moving only clock-wise)
6. attach back of clock

Then last year, I had to take it completely apart since the face was curling because it is so old and I glued it all back down again. 

Well now, with any luck, it will now outlast me and the bird sounds are still all correct.

I don’t really notice it anymore - but if somebody is visiting, it is a real “Hoot” to see their reaction and the 1st thing they say is “What is that”?

Gail @GailL1 , thanks for sharing!!!

Nope, at age 67, I thought there was ONLY the famous "cuckoo" clock.

Fascinating indeed.  👍

Daylight saving time is ending soon: Here's what to know for 2025. It's almost time for clocks to "fall back" one hour. On Sunday, Nov. 2, daylight saving time ends.

There are a couple of my clocks I never bothered changing in the fall, so why would it matter?

I nearly fell off a ladder changing the clocks at work a couple years back, I'm getting tired of this.   Leave it on DST year round.

We are still going to do this?  It's become such a nuisance. They are always talking about staying on DST, & I wish they would. 

As far as staying on standard time, it gets light too early in the summer.  One more thing to hate about fall.

Including a link to a brief History Channel synopsis of what is now known as DST...this article claims farmer don't like it.

All in all DST seems wasteful since humanity, in general, adapts to gradual change better than abrupt change....supported by (4) Tips on making the "adjustments"

I like it when it is NOT "dark" in the morning.

Lol, already "lazy" in my RETIREMENT = hard to get out of bed especially when it is COLD. Brrr...

The SUN is my "get up old lady" tonic.

I ONLY set an "alarm" when I have Medical Appointments. And those times it is THREE alarms!!! Yes, I will sleep through ONE.  🤣😂

The end of daylight savings time: a week of waking up early because kids and pets can’t tell time.
