I was so worried about the time change too - because Rex & Rowdy always got up at about around 6:00AM - so I knew it would be 5:00 now. But to my complete surprise, they maintained their 6:00 awakening - now me on the other hand............
For some reason this time change has been less disruptive - usually I'm out of whack for a whole week!
I get up early and have to walk several blocks so I love that it is now light outside - but I LOVE DST because it is light longer in the evening - I hate leaving work in the dark!!!!!
Next year we won't go off DST until November and I think it may start in March!!!!!
