Today's Question:
Do you turn your clocks back before you go to bed or when you get up in the morning ?
Just before I go to bed. If not, I will never remember in the morning.
Extra Credit Question:
Have you ever forgotten to "spring ahead" or "fall back" and ended up being late or early for something ?
I really hate to admit this, but several years ago I was working on a job site that was fairly remote and I was the only one that was ever there and I forgot for about a week.
Bonus Question:
What do you have covering your windows (curtains, blinds etc)?
Curtains.
Extra Bonus Question:
How much candy did you really eat last night     ?
2 pieces is all. I was so busy handing it out, I didn't have a break long enough to open any more than that. If it had been a bit slower I would not have been so good about not eating it. 357 kids in just under 1 1/4 hours.

Nope. I never forget because I look forward to it.

Blinds but I want curtains too.

I only ate a pack of Smarties. Don't want to gain weight after finally losing all of my baby weight!

E-Z questions to answer today. All are No. No children here, no Halloween Tor T's, no candy, no nothing. Peace and quiet. Don't eat candy anyway.
Drapes, honeycomb blinds, HD sihlouette shades and plantation shutters.

Oh wait! I forgot! I could have told you about the place I have in Maine. No windows and therefore no window coverings. No glass in the doors. It makes me feel very safe and secure. That's important to me.
But light is a nice commodity, too. So I have sky lights in the roof and if it gets a bit too intense, I can "turn off" the sunlight from inside.
Nobody "peeps" into these windows, lemme tell ya!

Today's Question:
Do you turn your clocks back before you go to bed or when you get up in the morning?
When I remember I do it in the morning but I usually forget completely and am late for whatever I'm doing in the morning.
Extra Credit Question:
Have you ever forgotten to "spring ahead" or "fall back" and ended up being late or early for something?
Yup, all the time. A few years ago I was once an hour late for school but I wasn't complaining!
Bonus Question:
What do you have covering your windows (curtains, blinds etc)?
Curtains in most of the rooms except the office (when I am sitting now). We're looking to get them replaced with some new ones though because these ones are a thick, red material (they came with the house) which makes the room quite dark.
Extra Bonus Question:
How much candy did you really eat last night?
None! I don't usually eat much in the way of candy anyway but last night I was sitting on an American Airlines 777 over the atlantic eating beef and potatoes (which I can recommend without hesitation  ) heading home. I totally miss New York though.

Reset the clocks before going to bed.
Nope, not too much candy ever--only the SF kind.

Heres my answer:
I usually do the time change thing before going to bed. I feel sorry for those who have to work a graveyard shift somewhere though, lol.
Never forgot how to go forward or backwards, but these dang digital clocks make it hard to just 'turn back the hands'.
We have mini blinds and during the day, open up everything, letting in the sunshine.
I didnt eat any more candy last night than any other typical work night, because every so often have to have that sugar thing going on or my body starts getting a bit nut-so, hands start getting a little shakey, start feeling a bit woozy. So sugar is a must-have for me, not a luxury.
