in the morning, we’ll be skipping 2:00 AM

Mar 8, 2025

At 2:00 AM our clocks in Indiana spring forward to 3:00 AM. I’m not a fan of daylight savings time, but it’s not something I’d fight to change. According to a Gallup survey conducted from January 21-27, 2025, 54% of Americans are NOT in favor of continuing DST, indicating a majority want to see it end.

48 states observe DST with Hawaii and Arizona not participating. Hawaii is close to the equator so daylight hours remain consistent year round — and Arizona opted out because of sun exposure in the desert climate.

Dharma thinks it smells like spring is coming!

Dharma smells spring: week 11

I’m ready to see some green on the trees and grass myself. Springing forward with DST is just another reminder that winter is almost a memory. 🙂


Now you know: IKEA’s founder, Ingvar Kamprad, had dyslexia, so he used Swedish names instead of numbers for products—making them easier to remember and now a signature part of the brand.
