It's getting dark EARLY!!!

[FreshTressa]

I hate it when it gets dark so early!! It is getting dark here like at 5pm now. It makes me feel so unproductive, I don't like to work after it is dark. And to top it off, it is dark when I wake up in the morning too.

I miss the summer!!

Im the weirdo that loves it. Especially in the next month when I will get to see the Christmas lights when I am driving home from work. For whatever reason, it makes me think like I have more of a night. I love coming home and we can all put on our jammies and just kind of relax. I guess it just seems cozy to me or something.

I also hate it!

I hate coming home in the dark. Every year I say the same thing: "Can't we have Daylight Savings Time ALL YEAR?"

Here in FL it's almost 6:00 and almost dark. Will be shortly. I had taken a walk from 4:20 - 5:20. As I was coming back in, it started looking a little orangy outside. After a little while inside, it was REALLY orange out there...weird!

It is just after 5:00 here now and it is about as dark as night outside. And, we lost about another hour and a half before Dec. 21 and we start to gain some time again.

I don't like it, I want the sunlight back. It doesn't help that it has been pretty cloudy around here for the last week or so.

I like it

I hate the shorter days. I miss summer, too

Me too! It's dark in the morning when I get up and when I get out of work too. But I do understand what dvcfamily41801 said seeing the lights on the way home from work is cool.

But the bright side is spring is only a 5 months away.

Wasn't daylight savings time all propaganda for the war??? If so then WHY do we still have it?

I also hate it. I especially hate when I happen to wake up early and its BRIGHT outside at 6:30 (can't sleep in the light).

Now that I'm in school in the city, I hate walking home from dinner alone when it is that dark. I know I'll be fine, but I'd prefer the light.

Worse than the dark are the grey skies. I am always so depressed in the winter, wishing for the sunshine!!!!

I should snap out of it though, the winter blues doens't usually hit me until after New Years. I'll just think happy Christmas thoughts, and THEN be upset in January, lol.

I'm with you! I LOVE when it gets dark earlier. It reminds me of cooler weather, holidays approaching, and those Halloween and Christmas lights when they're out.

It's tough for kids waiting for school buses at 6 - 6:30 am if we stayed on Daylight Savings Time. It's so dark in the AM just before we go back to Standard Time! Gotta have it dark in the AM or the PM - I'll take the darkness later in the day anytime!!
