Don’t Forget, Daylight Savings Time Starts Tonight!

Tom

Remember to set all your clocks ahead 1 hour before you go to bed tonight. Daylight Saving Time officially begins at 2AM. Cell phones and computers should change the time automatically for you, but you’ll likely need to adjust wristwatches, wall clocks, clock radios, microwave ovens, coffee makers, car radios etc. manually. It’s also a good time to put fresh batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. FYI, Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday November 5. See you in church, on time, tomorrow morning 🙂
