Our alarm clock woke us up this morning (a very user-friendly model called the Cameron) and we all thought "gee he slept late today" and were all happy until we realized it wasn't really 7:00, but instead it was 6:00. :p

Well, I started the process, but we have a LOT of clocks in this house since I have a thing for them. There are many more to be done and then too all the time related devices, i.e. answering machines, VCRs, etc. I just noticed my computer has automatically adjusted so that is one less to do.

The big deal is to get the dogs adjusted to regular time and not demand their breakfast and dinner at the old time.

We have some that set themselves and others we have to set.

I wish I could set the dogs back, they woke me up at 5:30 instead of 6:30 :eek:

All but two of our clocks turn back automatically, those two I set back last night.

My dogs luckily always sleep until we wake them up, so they always adjust easily.

I have been looking forward to this time change for Nathan. The last few weeks he's been going to bed later and getting up later. Setting the clocks back should hopefully get him back on track (or at least a little closer to the track).

My parents changed it this morning. The only clock I use is my cell phones and that changes automatically. :)

Did it in my brain last night - the rest is merely winding! :) (Oh and my computer did it automatically - very reassuring when you have to call someone in the morning.... ;) )

I have to set most of mine by hand (although the one in the living room had been 1hr behind since spring when it was behind the entertainment center, lol, oops.. forgot about that one!). I think my laptop set itself back... because it's the same as my clock by my bed (that I set back) and I didn't touch it.

We had a power outage yesterday, so more than half of the clocks are Blinking 12:00:D But we did set at least one back last night, errr...this morning. Will have to get the rest done today, when I get done being lazy!:D I love Lazy Sundays!!

I haven't done it yet. It will get done something through out the day. :)
I also need to remember to set the clock in my car. That will make me panic in the morning. :D

My vote was for other.
I set back two clocks.
one is automatic.
I will either leave two clocks as they are, or have someone else set them for me.

other. we dont follow DST here. although there is a huge debate about it, a stupid one really because we used to follow time changes but abolished for a reason lol(the time line splits my provence, so it created a lot of confusion when the town 10 minuts away was an hour apart in time lol). the people that are pushing for us to go back to DST havent presented any arguments for why we should other then "everyone else does it" lol

Another other. I started turning mine back when I got up yesterday morning. By noon all but 3 were done. Those last 3 I did last evening.

Did you remember to do the one in your car??

I'm the same since I'm in Arizona.

Although my hubby said some of the reservations do participate. I don't know for sure - he may be pulling my leg. He's a huge practical joker, so I never know if he's telling me the truth or just pulling one over on me.

Changed mine before bedtime last night. I did get to remind my bro, who lives in Vegas, to change his. I called him this morning and he hadn't even realized it was time to change them. :D Anytime I can get one up on my bro is a good day! ;) :D

I voted "other" as we don't have daylights savings time here in Az.

Cell phone, newer cpu and tv change the time themselves. Everything else we have to do manually.

I changed my watches, vcr, dvd player, microwave and older cpu already this morning, but everything else I still have to get to yet today.

i voted for other, because here in Arizona you don't need to change them. We are always in the same time.

Voted other.

I forgot about it but I use my cell phone as an alarm clock and it automatically resets. Since my phone said it was 9 a.m. and all the rest of the clocks in the house said 10 a.m., it was obvious we forgot about Fall back. All the clocks are reset now. :D

my pager automatically resest too and is ONLY time I have, even for my car (radio broken before I got it). there's a clock I rely on in case my pager dies before I wake up upstairs in my room I had to roll an hour back this late afternoon.

Other - ours went forward, i love daylight savings. Now if only we could have some Spring/ Summer weather it would all be good ;).

We forgot to set ours back.. We had gone to Wal-mart, and were on our way home when I looked at the clock in the car.. I thought "Oh, it's 1:49. I need to hurry and get home so I can take a shower so that I'm not late for work." Then I looked at my cell phone and it said 12:49. After that I realized that we were supposed to set the clocks..
This whole time change has made my schedule completely out of wack. The hours just seem to DRAG on forever at work.
