    Oh my, oh my - I have to remember! It would be a catastophy if I got up an our early on monday morning!! I'm going to check right now if it's this weekend here! Oh, I hate november, it's getting colder AND darker. December is usually bearable because of the X-mas decorations and lights. Not this year though.

    I love that extra hour!

    Though I don't notice it on a weekend since I sleep in anyway. Work days though. I love to wake up to the alarm and reset it and sleep in that extra hour.

    Hate that it's dark when I leave for work and dark when I get home though. Time to pull out Kia's orange reflector vest.

    Yeh!! We have less light every day. Since it will get dark early, my chica will go to sleep sooner. Sometimes she doesn't go to sleep untill 9:00 pm . I get tired before her because I work all day, and when I get home I fall asleep before her. She pushes me and nudges me to play with her. She won't let me sleep.But I know she is such a sweet heart that I don't mind!

    i Started Changing The Clocks Now. 1 More Hour Of Sleep. Great!!

    Did you REMEMBER to change em ...

    Or did you show up for Church an Hour Early?

    And how about those SMOKE DETECTORS?? >>>

    While you're Changing Things ...

    *CHANGE* the *BATTERY* in ALL
    your SMOKE DETECTORS!!


    And remember to *TEST* them with the Test Button, too!


    Now how many of those Hidden Clocks & Timers did you forget?
    A lot of "newer" appliances & timers will automatically adjust
    for Daylight Saving Time ... but the older stuff needs your personal attention.

    I've made THREE sweeps around the house - and I've prolly *missed* one or two!

    Remember: All Those "Hidden Clocks" >>>

    * the clock in the CAR
    * clock in the Digital Camera
    * in the Microwave
    * on the Stove
    * on the Water Softener
    * in the TV
    * in the VCR
    * on the Outside Lights timer
    * in the Answering Machine (3rd sweep found that one!)
    * on your Pager (I'm doing it now)
    * on your Cell Phone (it might auto-correct itself)
    * on the Caller ID box (I'm holding out to see if it auto-corrects itself)
    * the 'puter ought to be smart enough to change by itself
    * Annnnnd - your Wrist Watch! (now ... WHERE are the Instructions!?)

    OK ... I give up for now.
    I *ALWAYS* miss at least one ... usually find it when Daylight Saving STARTS
    in the spring!

    And HAPPY Daylight Saving Time to all you Folks on the "Bottom Half"
    of the ole Dirt Ball!

    I hate it when it gets dark early! I live on the very end of the timezone so during the summer it doesn't get dark until 9:30-10:00 at night! It's great!
