Maybe it will be the last time we change clocks, since the bill has been brought up again this year in the House, and also  in the Senate, but a betting man would need pretty good odds to make the bet that it passes this year.

But maybe it is time to give it stronger consideration.

Lots of sleep studies that say many people have difficulty in the adjustment springing forward, or falling back. Actually, the percentage is staggering. One in every four have trouble sleeping when the clocks move forward, or backward.

It is a tough thing to try to convince your body that it’s bedtime an hour before your mind says what time is really bedtime.

Makes sense that lots of us lose sleep when the clocks change.

And that the majority of us would rather avoid the switching of the clocks back and forth every six months.
