Fall Back
As this Halloween weekend rapidly approaches, I have one thought in mind: I get an entire additional hour of time this weekend! That’s because this weekend is when we switch from Daylight Savings Time to Eastern Standard Time. Everyone gets an extra hour of sleep, hanging with friends, doing homework, or Trick-or-Treating. This is extremely appreciated seeing as how I am working both Saturday and Sunday this weekend and that means getting up at 4:30 AM each day. Sleeping an hour later Sunday will seem like heaven!
Don’t forget to set your clocks back before you go to sleep Saturday night.

It’s great unless you work a night shift for your other state agency that night and have an extra hour to work!!

Even then, they take really good care of us by making that last hour double time!
