I think taking a practice run to get to the office is a great idea, Mari. You will be stressed enough the day of the root canal. You don't want to have to worry about getting lost, too
I hate Daylight's Savings Time. When I was working, I used to f- up all the time.
I'm so sorry that you are going to lose an hour with a deadline hanging over your head. I hope that you're able to get everything done and it doesn't throw off your sleep too much
