“How about going an hour earlier to bed?”
... and staying out of the pub!!
I love DST, would prefer it year round. HATE when it’s dark at 5pm. This year I beat those Dark Too Early Blues by leaving my Christmas tree up, fully lighted around the clock, until 1/25.
I was born and raised in Germany and my mother always decorated the tree on Christmas eve, and put the presents under the tree. We were not allowed to go into the room, until we heard a little bell ring. Before that we had to go to church at 5pm for the children's Mass. After we came home we had supper. The tree came down on Epiphany (Jan 6)
