picky Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 We did ours as soon as we got up this morning. How 'bout you? What time did you REALLY finally realize there was a time change? Be honest! At 6 am we went back to 5 am. Maybe THAT'S why we're so sleepy? [] Don't forget to put fresh batteries in your smoke detectors and Carbon Monoxide detectors!

damonrpayne Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Nearly every clock I have (phone, computers, cable box) is programmed to do it themselves! As soon as I recognize that the cable box, oven, microwave, computers, alarm clock are out of sync, I remember and go around and fix them.

Audible Nectar Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 We actually changed the "manual" set clocks in the house yesterday, and then just let the cable box and comp "sync up" overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunburnwilly Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Hardly anyone effected by daylight savings time forgets to set their clocks back . But alot of the same folk do forget to set their clocks forward in the Spring !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelerFan Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I agree with above, the cable boxes and cell phones these days make it easy to remember.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klipschaholik Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 My atomic clock set itself back. Course the coffee pot turned itself on an hour early! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dee Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 For the fall change, I always wait til the a.m. then enjoy an extra hour of the best time of the day. MORNING,. In the spring, I set my clocks up mid day on Saturday. Then I can fake myself out on time and go to bed early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornwalled Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 What?? You mean we were supposed to do that TODAY? Oh CRAP!! So that's why I was an hour early to church this morning! Just joking, I did it last night, at about midnight. But if the band members hadn't reminded me, I'd have forgotten all about it. -Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picky Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 As a shift worker working the night shift, I was all to aware that I had to work a 13 hour shift Saturday night!!! Patrick: I can sympathize with you on that one: When I played in a band doing bar gigs, we'd have to play an extra hour because of the Fall time shift. Getting home at 4:30 am was not fun. Of course, when the time jumped ahead in the Spring, they'd still make us play our full sets and then jump the time ahead after closing time. Drat! Screwed again!

pauln Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I didn't reset any clocks, just got up and went to work an hour early, but since I did not know which clocks at work might have been reset, and which not, I did not really know what time it was all day. No meetings today so that was OK. Someone did try to reset one of the clocks in a main area but did not push the stem back in - it read 11:37 all day... well half a day, I guess. I just headed for home before it got dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arky Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I've read the time change system changes again next year. I believe it said 1st Sunday in March to 1st Sunday in November. Getting hard to keep up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
