Title: Don't forget to change clocks
Post by: Nancy5 on November 05, 2016, 04:43:41 pm

Don't forget tonight....
Spring ahead
Fall back
Turn the clocks back, we get an extra hour of sleep!

I have the best technology in clocks. All of my clocks change by themselves. I love the new way instead of going from room to room :)

I would be glad if this were the last time we had to set our clocks back. We should have the right to leave well enough alone with time by keeping it standard.

Most of my clocks automatically change.   I go back and forth on if I like Daylight Savings time.  Since I'm retired it really doesn't bother me but I know most folks would prefer to not have to deal with it.

Also change the batteries in your smoke detectors.

At my home, I think we eliminate the usage of analog clocks.. Mostly use digital clocks (computer/phone)

Yes. Analogue clocks are harder to manage because you have to move the hands to set those clocks.

Thanks for the reminder!  My husband will change the ones that need it when he wakes up in the morning.

Every time I hear that we get an extra hour of sleep in the fall time change, I have to laugh. That's because I never actually get that extra hour of sleep. I wake up on the dot at the usual time before the time change every time and am not able to get back to sleep.
