OK, how many forgot to set their clocks ahead last night?

As long as ya get it done before ya have to go to work, ya should be good to go.

Spring, forward.

Fall, back.

didn't do it last night, just turned 'em ahead about 5:30, or is that 6:30?
now the car, truck, and bike-hope I remember how, or at least where I put the instructions after the last time.
glad the TV, computer, and cell phone are done for me.

Its pretty much automatic now since use the phones for alarm clocks and have only 2 clocks that are not set by themselves. Atomic clocks as they are called are great.

Setting my clocks ahead before I go to sleep would cause the clocks to be incorrect for a few hours.  Officially the time changes at 02:00.    Roll Eyes

BikerGirl and I always have fun at changeover time.  I always boast that I can set ALL the clocks/timers we have (between 20 and 25 and less than half self-correct) without missing one. 

It is amazing how many different timekeeping devices are in the modern home.  Digital cameras have clocks, our rice cooker has a clock... Heck, even our blood pressure meter tracks time for the records history!

I DO believe I've got them all this time - and have been appropriately boasting... Cheesy

And, as usual, Willow's statement is correct. Grin

the right way it to get up at 2 AM and do it.
if ya gotta be correct, I 'spose that's OK
if you're the right age you'd be up at 2 anyway for a pee call!

Okay, I have to be careful what I say (type?).  These days I have no inclination to pretense.  Well, truthfully I do pretend and mislead when I joke but it's difficult for people to tell when I'm joking.

A well known bit of advice comes to mind.  It's better to remain quiet and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.   Wink

Yes Willow, I remember well having my hat handed to me a couple months ago because of this very quote. I still laugh at myself for biting on that one. RJ knows of what I refer to. He's grinning a great big gotcha......and he should be. Hat's off to ya RJ.
