    Did you turn your clocks back?

    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.

    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

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

    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).

    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.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    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.
