Why not just spring time forward 1/2 an hour this Saturday and leave time alone. Simple fix.
Simpler still: do away with DST and just stay on standard time.

Workable solution: Simply adjust the time you do things. If your alarm was set for 7AM last month, set it for 8AM next month. If you went to bed at 11PM last month, go to bed at midnight next month. We're retired so no longer tied to a clock for anything other than happy hour.
