Hello ladies -
This is my first month temping. I have been using FF. I live in the midwest and we travel to Michigan mostly every weekend during the summer. I'm leaving today and I will be up there for a week and a half. It's an hour later there. I know FF friend says to go with that time zone, but I will be traveling up mostly every weekend and I'm just wondering if I should just keep temping at my original time zone (6 am which would be 7 am)? Thoughts?
Re: Charting & Time change
First, I LOVE Michigan! I grew up there. In the south west corner! So yay for that!
Second, I say whatever works best for you. Personally, I would temp in the time zone I was in. But, as long as you are getting the 3 consecutive hours of sleep, you should be fine!
Exactly where did you grow up? I'm in mid michigan now but when I was a kid I lived in the Lawrence/Hartford area.
We lived in Battle Creek until I was in 8th grade. Then we moved to Niles and we have lived there since... well I don't anymore, but my parents still do. I know Lawrence, we have a cottage on Christie Lake... my dad is building his new house there too.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! What a small world. I'm sure if you have been around Lawrence long enough and know enough people you have probably heard the name Tom Cross. That is my biological dad. He is the local welder that everyone takes their farm equipment to. You might mention it to your Dad to see if he has ever heard the name. It would be interesting to see if he had.
I will ask him! I just have to figure out a way to bring it up without saying, "so I met this girl in an online forum for women trying to get pregnant......." LOL, no one knows we are trying!! I will think of something though!
Cool! I usually go for the "I met this girl on a forum where we talk about houses, cleaning, husbands...stuff like that" Since it looks like you are married I think that would be an appropriate route!
