Daylight Savings

I DO NOT LIKE DAYLIGHT SAVINGS (right now).  Gone are the days that daylight savings in the fall meant an extra hour of sleep.  I have been in misery since Saturday night.  Bear never had an issue with daylight savings, P-nut however...  I did my normal fall behind night with the kids, 30 minutes postponed bedtime, everyone went down great.  Then 4:30 am came around and well, I guess P-nut felt it was time to start the day.  Her naps were nuts on Sunday and well, last night, not a good night (maybe it also has something to do with the diaper rash she has) but I want to blame daylight savings! 
I was bitter hearing and reading posts on FB from friends "ah, love the extra hour of sleep", "so happy for daylight savings".  Guess what, I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT!!!
Daylight savings for me:
I get home at dark...  No playing outside with my kids after work, no running outside after work (I don't like to run by myself after dark), feeling like I want to go to bed at 6 pm.
No extra hour of sleep on "the day"...  It takes a few days for my kids to get their sleep schedule back on track.
AH!!! 
Sorry I will be in a better mood later!
