A few weeks ago, Indiana climbed aboard the Daylight Savings Time train. We resisted it for decades, despite all kinds of arguments that it would be a good thing. But finally, the idea got through the legislature, and at the beginning of April, Hoosiers had to learn how to change their clocks.

We're supposed to not like it. We're supposed to gripe about it, just like we gripe about class basketball.

But I must admit--I like it. Today I mowed my yard late in the day, and didn't finish until 8:30 pm--but it was still light out. That was nice.

And our cats love it. They love being outside in the grass, but know that when it gets dark, we won't let them out. So now, when we come home at the end of the day, there is an extra hour of daylight they can claim as outside time.

So I, a Hoosier, a person who hates to change, admits that this change works well for me. Sorry.
