No need to ask if everyone is ready for it as it doesn't
matter, it will happen whether anyone is ready or not.
Here in Nashville, it's even darker than usual at this
time due to it being a cloudy day.  We've had two much
needed showers and it will be a bit cool on Sunday.

Flip-flopping back and forth with the time twice a year doesn't make any sense.  Some think the idea dates back to Benjamin Franklin having to do with the conservation of the use of candles.  Others seem to think it had to do with farmers.  Or conservation of energy during WWI.  It didn't become a Federal law in the U.S. until 1966.  (A few States and U.S. territories are excepted.)  What's the point?  Pick a time and stick with it!

 The idea of extending DST to save energy doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
That notion came about during WWI in Germany.

This week our neighbour's daughter will be catching her school bus in the dark. The family will have lights on in the house to be able to walk around. Next week it will be light out when she catches the bus. They will need lighting later in the morning for a while and then they will be using the lights in the late afternoon. There is nothing saved.
 
Don't blame me.  I'm not the person who claims it saves anything.
