Time change coming up at 2AM. Going forward an hour.
Which means for me that my shift is one hour shorter. YAY!
Your computers and phones will automatically update the time, for you lazy people, but you will still have to manually change the time on your microwaves and regular clocks.

I sure wish we could leave the time alone. It's not like we really need DST any more. My animals are worse at adapting to the time change than I am.

Well we do get one less hour of COVID hell, so there's that.

There, there. It will soon be covid lite.

Our clocks don't go back for another three weeks or so.

It is funny, last month we had a storm that knocked out my power for a little while, and of course when it comes back on, outside my computer, my stove and microwave I have to reset.
I had no problem resetting the stove clock. But kept on trying to reset my microwave clock, but couldn't. I thought maybe the storm had fried it. Nope, It was me. Before the 10am hour, you have to punch in "0" as in 0900 for "9am" to get it to work.
