Well, you've read the notes, you know Daylight Savings Time has returned, and now it is time for you to post until the returning cows come home.

Yesterday, after leaving my parents' but before I came home, I went to the Hawks Prairie Costco. Things seemed pretty normal there. I walked around the store and didn't notice any empty sections.

Then after leaving Costo, I went to Jiffy Lube and had my oil and wiper fluid topped off. If you get your oil changed there (which I did), you can get your fluids topped off for free. Cool!

As for changing my clocks, I always wait until I've woken up on Sunday because I have a couple of devices that may or may not change automatically. I just don't remember which.

Today, I'm ushering for The Highest Tide, a stage adaptation of the book of the same name by local author, Jim Lynch.

After ushering, my niece wants me to come over to her place and show her how to clip the claws of her cats.

From yesterday: Fred, congrats on your 750 extra hotel points for helping the environment!

And now, I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

Good morning, all.

I want my hour back.

Alexa can and will play Brent Barrett songs if you ask. I think all the selections are from the Alan Jay Lerner album.

I had another lousy night of sleep, so when the alarm rang at 6:30 (the old 5:30), I fed the cats and went back to bed until I felt like getting up. At 9:15 I decided it was time.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #15 on:** March 08, 2020, 06:45:27 AM »

I have no plans for today, so I doubt I will even leave the apartment. I need to do kitty cleanup, make the bed, and pick up some of the cats' toys. Then I will revise (again!) the story I lost yesterday. I'm still angry over that.

It's ten o'clock.......but the sun says it's nine o'clock.....so I will go by the clock.

All of my clocks have been pushed forward......I have seven including the kitchen range and microwave. Not counting the computer which does its own thing.

Bruce Kimmel has crab legs. Pass it own.

We have 3 radio/alarm clocks, the microwave and the oven that need changing. Oh, I forgot to change my watches. I don't wear them very often in the winter since I can look at my cell phone instead.

My apologies to Bruce for this question.

Jane · « **Reply #20 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:35:47 AM »

To make up for it I will take extra posts to ask my question

Jane · « **Reply #21 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:36:19 AM »

Daylight Saving is the correct name.

Jane · « **Reply #22 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:36:43 AM »

Most people say Daylight Savings.

Jane · « **Reply #23 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:37:44 AM »

I think savings and then try to say it correctly.

Jane · « **Reply #24 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:38:35 AM »

Who says "saving"?

Jane · « **Reply #25 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:39:00 AM »

Who says "savings"?

elmore3003 · « **Reply #26 on:** March 08, 2020, 07:49:03 AM »

I use them interchangeably, because I really don't care about which is correct, just as I do antiviral and antibiotic.

Good morning, all.

I especially resented this particular jumping forward of the clocks, because I had a li'l second wind going last night so I was reading some stuff and suddenly it was 1:00 am which then instantly became the new 2:00 am...whereupon I damned them. I damned them all to HELL. And back.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #29 on:** March 08, 2020, 08:42:58 AM »

I have NEVER known which is Daylight and which is Standard. It has never made any sense to me.
