    Payback time for that extra hour of sleep we got in the fall.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    The good thing for me is, instead of working 12 hours this fine evening, I get to warp through time and finish up work an hour early and still get paid for 12, sweet!

    Let us count the minutes to do:

    2 Cars
    Garage clock (pain to do with the bird calls synched)
    Stove
    Microwave
    3 radios
    Wall clock (major pain in the spring due to chimes)

    I'm sure more will pop up that SWMBO will find and tell me to do.

    At least 30 min to do.

    It's amazing how SWMBO's just don't know how to set a clock. I'm sure I'll get home from work this morning and they'll all need set....

    I married when both SWMBO and I were in our early thirties. SWMBO is an MD, paid for her education by working as an EMT and ambulance driver. What I'm trying to say: she's fairly competent, and that's from before she met me. I KNOW she can change a tire, or a lightbulb, or set a clock. Yes, I do it faster, but still...
    Being in a very honest and communicative marriage, I went and asked her wth. i know she can do it. She did it when we were dating. What changed?
    She looked at me with those big green eyes of hers, all baffled, and replied:
    "what else did I get married for??"

    Is not the hassle of clock setting that purturbs me,Is the fact that the twice a year time changes no longer serve any purpose.
    I do not like doing things with no purpose.

    I like the longer light in the evenings; it means Spring (and then Summer, a teacher/outdoorsman's favorite time!) is coming.
