DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME - SHOT TIME CHANGES

[Sienne and Gabby (GA)]

Daylight savings time starts this weekend so shot times will need to be shifted in order to accommodate the time change.

Using a 7:00 AM/PM shot time as an example, shots can me moved as follows:

Thursday AMPS 7:00
Thursday PMPS 6:45

Friday AMPS 6:45
Friday PMPS 6:30

Saturday AMPS 6:30
Saturday PMPS 6:15

Sunday AMPS 7:15 (time change will have occurred and would have been 6:15)
Sunday PMPS 7:00

(Please bump this message until Sunday.)

[Michelle and Mannie (GA)]

thanks for posting this - I was wondering how I was going to go about making the change.

 

[Jan and Buddy]

Thanks!!! You know me and time changes, get toally confused.
Just have to change the number from 7am to 5am my shot time.

Although the company I work for is closing the doors, so will be a stay at home Mom (for Buddy boy) so I'm probably going to change my shot time anyway!!! :lol:

How can this be the first I've heard that daylight saving time is this weekend. Ugh , and us with 5 guests staying all weekend... Ya know , once we "sprung ahead" on the wrong weekend - MIL was in town, easter weekend and she wanted to go to church. We took her to a real nice one few towns over as a treat - got there and it was very crowded and couldn't figure out why they were doing communion so early...... yes, we made it to the tail end of a mass instead of the beginning. Luckily she didn't make us sit thru a whole nother mass. Talk about feeling dumb!

 

[Caryl & Sebastian & Alex (GA)]

Thanks

 

[Michelle & Scrabble (GA)]

Oh gosh thanks so much, where have I been not knowing it was daylight savings this weekend!! I would have been like what?

 

[Team Blackie (GA)]

Awesome, thanks for the reminder.

For those who are confused by the time changes and world time zones (the time change for most of Europe is the 28. March. 2010) here is a site which has everything you want to know about time and dates! http://www.timeanddate.com/time/aboutdst.html

For example some parts of Canada as well as Arizona and Hawaii do not have DST.

[Tina & Sammy]

Wow! I had not even thought about that. Glad Sami is OTJ.

Hope the process goes smoothly for everyone still on insulin.

 

[Ann & Maggie11 (GA)]

Thank you for the reminder.

 

[Jen and Oreo (GA)]

I was just thinking about that this morning :smile: I do mine in 15 minute increments starting Friday PM.

Current: 6:15am/pm
Fri PM: 6:00pm
Sat AM: 5:45am
Sat PM: 5:30pm
Sun AM: 5:15am before daylight savings, 6:15am after :smile:

15 minutes seems to be ok for Oreo.

 

[Ella & Rusty & Stu(GA)]

Thanks Sienne, I lay awake last night trying to figure this out (math wizzard that I am!!) and now I see that you have done it for us. THANK YOU!!

[Gwen and Morris]

Time change question......I know this is definately not the 'ideal' way to do things....BUT....I hate loosing an hour sleep! Could I have a sleep in day & call it a fur shot instead???? Hubby & son are going away for the weekend (hockey tournament), so daughter & I will be relaxing this weekend! A nice sleep in day would be VERY nice!!!!

[Bonnie & Kyndra]

I only thought about it today when I turned on my computer and realized it had taken me an entire hour to walk from my kitchen to my office - my HOME office! Yikes! I forgot about DST. OK, not totally, I just forgot about it in the past 48 hours and since I just started Kyndra on insulin this past Tuesday it was not on my mind. so....I guess I will have to make the adjustments this week.

I guess I should be spending more time on this than posting photos of lizards and cats!

 

[Barb & Checkers (GA)]

Thank you, Sienne. I printed it out and adjusted the time for myself. I am 7:30 schedule. It was nice to not have to figure it out for myself.
