Don't Forget to Turn Your Clocks Back Tonight!

Set Clocks Back! "Spring ahead, Fall Back" is the way I used to remember which way to set my clock twice a year as we move to and from Daylight Savings back to Standard time. What's great about the Fall, is that we get to turn our clocks back 1 hour and we get to sleep in an hour later tomorrow morning. Many persons including myself forget to reset all our clocks as the time change takes place at 2:00 am on the first Sunday November 1^st for the United States. If you are in business or have an appointment, it could be a disaster or at least you end up being super early for once in your life.

Change Batteries As well as resetting your clocks, it is a very good idea to re-check all your smoke alarms fire officials remind us to also replace the batteries in carbon monoxide and smoke detectors. Working smoke detectors can double your chance of survival in a fire.

Again - The change from daylight saving time to Eastern Standard Time occurs at 2 a.m. Sunday November 1, 2009.

Thanks for sharing Jim!

Good reminder ....sleeping in is something most people appreciate.

Mind you here in Arizona we keep the same time all year!

Terje (Terry) Aaslid - Foreclosed homes / New Homes (Model Home Center) I sometimes feel I need to do this to remind myself! I did not know that about AZ! Sleep in an hour later anyway!
