Personally, I am definitely happier with daylight savings time! More time to walk, and enjoy the great outdoors San Diego has to offer. It is also so much easier to show buyers home after work.

I agree with Ron Marshall. Doesn't bother me a bit. I would prefer to have an hour more sunlight at the end of the day in winter too, if I had a choice. It gets pretty dark skiing at 4:00 in December.

This one really hit me for some reason this year.  Maybe it's the pregnancy or maybe I'm just getting older.  It was our turn to host family dinner so playing hostess is always exhausting too!  Tonight....going to bed early...I hope!

I LOVE IT, i get to work an hour later. Buyers dont want to see homes in the dark and after dinner showings are popular. On my REO homes it is a huge safety issue to be in the dark

The amount of sleep I get, has no effect on me, my day or my clients, most likely because I don't require that much.

I struggle with time changes. Granted, losing daylight savings seems easier because I'm an early riser. But I like waking when the sun is up and out. Far cry from my first book of poetry when I was 18: Obnoxious is the Morning Sun. When I have to adjust to daylight savings and losing an hour of sleep, I pretend that I am living in Nederland, Colorado.

Praful, right now in the spring DST is very helpful as we can now schedule showings after 6:30 PM as it will not be DARK outside.  It is important for buyers to look around the exterior of a home as well as the interior.

Personally, I dislike the loss of an hours sleep.  Not only that, we will now get up in the dark again and have to turn on the light in the morning so I don't see where this will "save" anything.  Enjoy your shortened Sunday!
