Actually we are now on "Standard" time only 4 months of the year. (November, December, January, February). Why not just stay on Daylight time year around (since everyone likes that extra hour in the evening)?

I was tempted not to change my timepieces Saturday (my wristwatch is a major project), but the thought of forgetting I was an hour fast and arriving at church and dental appointments an hour early threw me off. Maybe I won't change them next fall and see what happens! That of course won't work for you non-retired folks!

During the 8 years that at least one of my children was living in Europe, the dates of their time change was always different from ours and calculating when to call, at a time when they'd be home but not in bed, was a major undertaking.
