Did I miss something? Were we supposed to have turned our clocks back an hour? {"we" meaning people in the USA, at least the ones who are on daylight saving time, which I think is most of us, but I don't know that for sure}.

I think that I'm still on EDT {Eastern Daylight Time} or should that be EDST? {Eastern Daylight Saving Time}. But should I have moved my clocks back one hour to EST {Eastern Standard Time} two days ago??

And btw, thank God for the saying "Spring forward. Fall back". Though I've been known to "fall forward" I've never "sprung back" so that saying is a good memory tool for me.

Oh, wait a minute. My computer automatically turns the clock forward or back during those switcheroo forward or backwards times. So I guess it's still EDT for a couple more days. Here at least. In the United States. The parts of the USA that have daylight saving time. Which I guess isn't all the states. But I don't really know for sure.

But one thing I do know for sure-
The Times. They Aren't Changin' yet.

:o)

Btw, welcome new Mudcatter 33 1/3!
