For some of us we will once gain go through the ritual of changing the clocks. On March 8th the clocks will move forward 1 hour.

For those of you planning to put your house on the market maybe you have already tackled spring cleaning of the interior now you can turn your attention to the exterior. The cleanup this year will be costly due to the ice storms and numerous snow falls. I look outside and see many broken tree limbs, and plants destroyed by hungry deers. We all know how important curb appeal is, so all this has to be addresses before the house is ready for the market.

Paddy only if you are having a problem sleeping:)

Bill I am excited just thinking about being able to spend more time outdoors.

Mike - Replacing those batteries is important we want to make sure they work in an emergency.

Have a great weekend.

Oh my -- I am starting to see the snow melting -- and it looks like a lot of spring "cleanup" ahead! The nice part is that there will be more sun and longer days! Okay -- I'm ready! ... just no more snow and ice PLEASE!

Jennifer, good information to pass along. Of course we, in Arizona, never change our clocks - unless the batteries go dead! ;-)

We don't change here in Arizona, as Teri said, which makes it all the more confusing for us when we are dealing with other time zones!

It is about that time. Lord knows we can use some nice weather after all that snow last week. Hopefully this will bring out more home buyers as well.

Jennifer, after NOT watching the clock last night, we were dragging all day, but it was a gorgeous day today, in the 70's!!!, and the yard work was a blessing, grateful to be outside in the fresh air.
