That’s it, it’s official: I HATE time changes. I don’t care what direction they’re going. I hate them. I’ve been up since 3:45 a.m. because Michael doesn’t know he’s supposed to have an “extra” hour of sleep. Psychotic people. If you’re so darned attached to daylight savings, why didn’t you just leave us on it permanently? It’s not like there’s some worldwide rule that says we MUST return to uncorrupted time for a week or two. Does anyone in the entire world actually LIKE this bizarre tradition in which we randomly decide that 1a.m. is 2 a.m., or 2 a.m. is 1 a.m., and ask our bodies to adjust accordingly?
All right, that has nothing to do with Sunday Snippets: A Catholic Carnival, which is what I’m here to share today:
I know you all need some pure, un-political kid cuteness in order to remind you that the world is still a beautiful place despite all the political nonsense. Especially two days before the election. Right?
No? How about a little girl with Down syndrome showing off her blossoming kindergarten skills? Or a cuddle moment with a second grader who’s about to be too big for such things?
Yes, I’ve been mostly posting personal things this week, but here’s something a little more universal: Body Image, Body and Soul.
Head on over to RAnn’s place for more!

Love your rant. And totally agree.
Since so many seem to be on board, let me share something a friend shared on Facebook: http://www.standardtime.com/ –calling for an end to the madness. Frankly, I don’t care if we go to all daylight savings, I just want it to STOP CHANGING.
I agree with you and Colleen. I hate the changing and would like to be permanently on daylight savings time. I’m of an age when I don’t see well in the dark and absolutely hate the early dusk compounded by wintertime shorter days.
