Why do I have to turn my clocks back? What is the method to this madness that each year I must gain an hour to only lose it in the spring? Argh!!!

According to AI from a Google search, “We turn the clocks back to return to standard time at the end of Daylight Saving Time (DST), a practice designed to make better use of natural daylight. The original goals were to conserve energy and to give people more daylight in the evenings during the summer months, though the energy savings are less significant today. Turning the clocks back restores the hour of daylight to the mornings during the winter months.”

Here’s a bit more: “The practice of “going back” and “springing forward” is a result of Daylight Saving Time (DST), which originated in the early 1900s as an energy conservation measure during World War I. Benjamin Franklin first joked about the idea in 1784, but Germany was the first country to implement a version of DST in 1916 to save fuel. The United States adopted it in 1918 but repealed it the following year; it was reinstated nationwide in 1966 by the Uniform Time Act.”

My advice, time to repeal it again.

I’d ask Trump to take care of this but he’s too busy destroying democracy to be bothered with Daylight Savings Time.

Damn stupidity if you ask me.

And yes, I’m cranky. All this back and forth isn’t good for an old lady with hydrocephalus.

Anyway, I need to go tend to my clocks. What time is it anyway?

Blessed be :}
