For residents of the Navajo Nation, the beginning of daylight saving time means the beginning of an annual headache
Melissa Blackhair is not eager to spring forward Sunday. “I’m dreading it. I just don’t want to see how much we have to adjust,' Blackhair said while sitting in her home office in Tuba City on the Navajo Nation, the only area in Arizona that follows daylight saving time. With her husband working during the week in Phoenix, their clocks will vary. “Everything in our house is set to daylight saving time.
“Once we start looking at people’s clocks, we just kind of think 'OK, it’s 7 o'clock but it’s really 8 o’clock at our house in the evening,'' Blackhair said, adding that the family doesn’t go onto the Hopi side on school nights during daylight saving. The time warp also has fed into lingering feelings of anti-socialness from when Navajo and Hopi shut down during the coronavirus pandemic.
