Give me until next April, and they'll all be changed.

Of course, I change time zones every week, so I get the pleasure of changing clocks on things all the time - you'd think that I'd be an expert by now! :goodvibes

We weren't in my car today, so that's the last one.

And another question...do you change them the night before or in the morning? For fall, I like to wait til morning, so I feel like I'm getting the full benefit of the extra hour. If I do it the night before, it just seems like I'm going to bed earlier.

Well, I said " all of them are", but I am sure I'll find one that hasn't been yet. In fact, I'm quite sure the one in our big van didn't get changed, since we haven't driven it in weeks! Yesterday I found the kennel one had not been changed before either. We have WAY too many clocks around here!

''Technically'' the rule is the time changes at 3am, but most people aren't awake anyway at that time to change it then. I had actually forgot to change it the night before, and my bf was supposed to be somewhere at 8 and ended up being there at 7am, he was a little tired.

They are, I had forgotton about it until I heard the weather man remind us on the news. I got up right then and there and changed all of them. A couple I don't have to change because they are those atomic clocks. VERY NICE!! And then I did our vehicle the next day.

My mom still doesn't have all hers done yet.

My DS called from Texas Sunday morning a bit earlier than usual. I asked him if he remembered to change his clocks, and he hadn't! He thought it was SUNDAY night instead of Sunday morning! :hammer:

Had to laugh about this thread, since yesterday I was racing around my workplace like an idiot... I'd stop in one lab, see their clock and think, "Ok, it's 10 am..." After a few minutes there, I eventually be back in my lab, glance at my clock and think, "WHOA! Where DOES the time go... better get a movin'!" THen I would be elsewhere and see a clock... think Hmmm...ok, it's not as late as I thought... then go back in my lab and think, MAN! I'm runnin' LATE!"

Did this 3 times before it DAWNED on me that half the clocks in our building had been changed - but half had not. (And in case you're wondering - no, I don't wear a watch. I have umpteen million of the things... and every one of 'em needs a new battery, LOL! One of these days I'll get them all fixed... one of these days....)

In our house EVERY clock has been adjusted, courtesy of DH. He has a clock fetish and can't stand for them to be "off" (his own little obsession I guess). He goes NuTsO at my mom's house.. I don't think the woman owns a clock that agrees with another within an hour! My brother got her an atomic clock so at least ONE would be right, LOL, and we'd all know which one to look at!

Does the clock that never got changed last go around, so it now finally has the correct time on it again count? :hammer:

I had changed them all by mid-day last Sunday.

The interesting thing was to be up watching TV in the middle of the night on Saturday night. The clock on the guide on the tellie was correct, but the programming didn't match. They finally got it straight about 6 am lol

Currently we do not change our clocks. But that is soon to change.

In Indiana they have given every county the option of picking what time zone they want to be in as of next spring.

It is a joke and the media is having a field day with it.
:help:

Yes even the ones in the cars which are usually forgotten about.
