One guilt-free hour - by Monica


In the middle of the night this Sunday at 2 a.m. is Day Light Savings Time! So, before you go to bed on Saturday night, set your clocks back one hour. This one is my favorite Day Light Savings Time -- when we gain an hour instead of losing one. But make sure you change your time, or your whole schedule will be off, and you'll wonder why you're going an hour early to everything you do.

So, I advise for you not to spend this extra hour working or doing housework. Think of this as your one guilt-free hour. We live in a world where we are constantly in rush, and feel bad for doing nothing. If you are one of these people, let this hour be your hour to do whatever the heck you want to. Here are some of my ideas of what you can do with your extra hour:
-Sleep (my personal favorite)
-Watch television
-Read a book
-Go to the bar with your girlfriends or with the guys (after-all, the bars will be open one hour later on Saturday night...just make sure you drink responsibly and find a DD!)
-Eat some of that leftover Halloween candy
-Call a friend, especially one that you haven't kept in touch with in a while because you "haven't had time." You can't use that excuse on Day Light Savings Time.
-...or write a letter to someone you care about
-Take a long, hot shower
-Dance around your bed room to music
-Or write your own song
-Bake a cake
-Give yourself a manicure and pedicure

No matter what you do -- just RELAX!

Post with any other ideas you have of what to do with that extra hour.
