    Default Don't forget to set your clocks

    tonight before bed. Yep that time of the year for most of us to "spring forward". We have so many things that have clocks and "springing forward" isn't my fav...having it dark earlier, now that's cool, lol. Rejoice, all of you who are thrilled with more daylight towards the end of the day.

    I already moved them up on the 'secondary clocks' like the one in my car, the stove etc... I went to change OldMan's and realized he never moved it BACK in the fall!

    Thanks for the reminder, I need to change the one in the bedroom before I hit the Z's or he will be VERY late for work Sunday morning!!!
    I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

    We did ours around 5pm yesterday. We weren't really doing anything that we needed the clocks for, so it seemed like a good idea.

    Never sure whether I like this time of year or not. I get most of my stuff done before work, so it cuts into my time to get chores done. But it IS nice to drive home and still have a little light to see the door by!
