What Will You Do With The Extra Hour In Grand Junction This Weekend (POLL)

If you have fun things planned Saturday night, the good news is you get an extra hour to do them. If you have to work the overnight shift Saturday night, sucks to be you. Daylight Savings Time ends this Sunday morning at 2 am.

By the way, if the time changes messes with your sleep habits, Fox News posted a handy idea with blue lights to help you cope.

Breus likes the Philips goLITE BLU Energy Light, available in rechargeable ($150; amazon.com) and compact ($100; amazon.com) versions, but you can get similar benefits with any light therapy device with blue light.  You can also skip the gadget and simply buy alertness-promoting bulbs for your existing fixtures, such as Definity Digital by LightingScience’s bulbs ($70; amazon.com).

 

Bonus: If you’re prone to morning grogginess or the winter blues, these gadgets can help boost energy and mood throughout the year.

 

Use the light for 20 minutes, tops, and not after 7pm, Breus advises, to gain a few hours’ worth of afternoon alertness without getting over stimulated.

In Grand Junction, we have multitudes of options for things to do. What will you do with your extra hour? Here are a few ideas, but please feel free to add your own.
