Unfortunately, I am like 40th in line at the library for it so we keep putting it off for book club. Christopher keeps telling me to just listen to it but I'm not that kind of reader..I lose concentration so fast! <BR/>I'm so excited now to read Into the Wild though..if I ever get it!Laceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00667779550544559245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6705156023975539546.post-17375178220982571902007-11-07T12:44:00.000-06:002007-11-07T12:44:00.000-06:00"Yes" vote for moving back to AZ if possible in th..."Yes" vote for moving back to AZ if possible in the future! -PapaPat and Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12282555568875101280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6705156023975539546.post-87302000557695613142007-11-07T08:47:00.000-06:002007-11-07T08:47:00.000-06:00Yup Mike told me it was good ole Benjamin Franklin...Yup Mike told me it was good ole Benjamin Franklin. Your post is SO Funny because I was going to write the same thing. . . we have the same friends though, so I don't think they need to hear complaints twice :)<BR/><BR/>In high school I LOVED it (in the fall) because I got to sleep in. I will have to say though my kids are back to normal. Probably because we have been sick and they have wanted to sleep. Good luck!<BR/><BR/>Oh and the opera guy, I think it was Isaac's nice way of saying he wasn't too impressed. We watch American Idol too and he likes to say if they were good enough or not. Uh oh. . . I think I am teaching him to be judgmental at the age of two :)Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06071105771734997111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6705156023975539546.post-83256620322284968982007-11-07T00:32:00.000-06:002007-11-07T00:32:00.000-06:00Ben Franklin's idea.

Which is why (I think) Arizona doesn't participate...having more daylight waking hours would actually use more electricity with all the A/C going on.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I like it. I do not like the week of the change, but once we're all used to it, I don't mind. I especially like it in the summer so my kids don't get up at 5:00 am with the sun. I hated that part of Arizona. :)<BR/><BR/>If you hate what it's doing to your schedule now, you'll hate it 20 times more come spring. :DLara Neveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351324888724799014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6705156023975539546.post-62506099612920962832007-11-06T22:47:00.000-06:002007-11-06T22:47:00.000-06:00daylight not dayling so sorry.daylight not dayling so sorry.walt or jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15512574552947005094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6705156023975539546.post-8735135244862731732007-11-06T22:45:00.000-06:002007-11-06T22:45:00.000-06:00Daylight savings time...it's gunna give me more ti...Daylight savings time...it's gunna give me more time to have fun with my baby...oooh dayling savings time it's gunna give me more time to have fun with my baby...ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh <BR/><BR/>Some lyrics from my favorite tune celebrating the beginning of daylight savings time. <BR/><BR/>When we go off daylight savings time we sing: "no more daylight savings time, there's no dang time to have fun with my baby, or anything else, it's too stinking dark!"walt or jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15512574552947005094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6705156023975539546.post-17977899497745115322007-11-06T22:16:00.000-06:002007-11-06T22:16:00.000-06:00From what I've heard it was Ben Franklin's idea if...From what I've heard it was Ben Franklin's idea if another blogger posted correctly. My understanding was it was supposed to allow us more daylight to get things done, you know in the morning time?

Who's idea was that!? I thought moving to Arizona would cure all my confusing but I still have to remember the time change so I don't call my parents at midnight!
