'Fall back' — 010/31/09

Extra hour provides a chance to get more done this Sunday

For the record, Sunday is the longest day of the year — 25 hours. We gain that extra hour as we “fall back” from daylight saving time to standard time.

To celebrate this long day, we repeat a modest proposal: Use that extra hour to do some of those little odd jobs that there never seem to be enough hours in the day to do. We all have them: Balancing the checkbook, tightening the loose hinge on the back door, closing the storm windows in preparation for winter, exchanging the summer clothes in your closets and dressers with the winter clothes stored in the attic or basement, cleaning out the “junk drawer” — the list is endless. Or you can sleep an extra hour or spend more time with the family.

However, we do not recommend spending the hour sitting in front of the church or arriving early for a ballgame, because you forgot about the time change.

We say all this as a reminder to turn your clocks back an hour before going to bed tonight — and to get us all to think about how we spend out time on this and other days.
