NBC: It's Daylight Saving Time, But Not for Everybody

No, we are not all on the same schedule. Even when we think we are, we might be in for a surprise. That happened to us yesterday. We were supposed to pick up our grandson at a given hour. No problem and no rush, because we had plenty of time, or so we thought. Our daughter called wondering where we were. We told her we were about to head out and be on our way.

Since it struck us as odd for her to call while it wasn't time yet, we asked her if something was wrong. She said all was fine, but that she got concerned when we didn't show up. You can probably imagine the question marks in our eyes, which cleared up pretty quick when she informed us that the clock had sprung forward an hour last night. Oops! That had totally escaped us.

You can image the anxiety that came with that realization. We were almost an hour late picking up our grandson and the clocks in our abode all had to be reset. Stress city galore and stress is said to be an excellent motivator for packing on the pounds. Some consolation may be found in the question: NBC: Can the Snooze Button Keep the Weight Off? Sure it can: procrastination is the thief of time.

Breakfast will be out of the question!
