Today's Question(s):

Meet the "Honey-do List Fairy" you can call him Fred !!

What are the some of the items on the list that you will have Fred take care of ?

1) Clean out my basement
2) Go door to door to sell as many hoagies as he can to help benefit my daughter's high school prom
3) Go through all my shoes and throw out any I haven't worn in 2 years. Same with clothes. If it hasn't been worn in 2 years, throw it away.



Bonus Question:

Is the "time change" messing with anyone's "sleep schedule" ?

YES, but in a GOOD way...My body is thinking its 6 a.m. when its really 5 a.m., so I will kindly turn over and get another hour of rest..That's about the only thing I enjoy about this time change.




Extra Credit Question:

Who here also changed the batteries in their smoke detectors when they turned their clocks back ?

I never do.

(our newspaper said you should do this )

Then, maybe you can play for awhile!
I don't know how to make pancakes, but I wonder if IHOP has pancakes to go...

Okay, if I do all of those things, will that give me a get out of the doghouse pass?

Good morning everyone. I just got back from the gym. It feels so good to do a workout in the morning to start your day off. I have a goal to lose so much by Christmas. 1/2 LBS TO GO.

Go to the coffee pot and get me another cup. Not much on my list.


Bonus Question:

Is the "time change" messing with anyone's "sleep schedule" ?
No

I would like to give the person that claims "you get an extra hour of sleep" a piece of my mind, because now I wake up at ______ ?
I don't have a problem with sleep but I would like someone to explain how turning lights on at 6pm and off at 6am uses less energy than turning them on at 5pm and off at 5am


Extra Credit Question:

Who here also changed the batteries in their smoke detectors when they turned their clocks back ?
It only took 1 time of getting out of bed at 2am, getting a ladder, finding a battery to convince me to change them regularly. Time change is a great reminder.

Today's Question(s):

Hi Fred

What are the some of the items on the list that you will have Fred take care of ?

Honey-do lists were invented by wives/girlfriends to suck all of the fun out of a guys day off. Fred and I are going fishing. We will be back when we get back.

Bonus Question:

Is the "time change" messing with anyone's "sleep schedule" ?

I did not need the "time change" to mess up my sleep schedule. I am highly successful in messing up my sleep schedule on my own.

I would like to give the person that claims "you get an extra hour of sleep" a piece of my mind, because now I wake up at ______ ?
If I do not set an alarm I still wake up at the crack of noon.

Extra Credit Question:

Who here also changed the batteries in their smoke detectors when they turned their clocks back ?

I tried to get the company to fly me 3000 miles home for the day just so I could change the batteries in the smoke detectors. However they said since I was 3000 miles away it probably would not jeopardize my safety much if the smoke detector failed to go off.

Good Monday morning.....

Today's Question(s):
Meet the "Honey-do List Fairy" you can call him Fred !!
What are the some of the items on the list that you will have Fred take care of ?
Only thing on the list here for Fred .....is he needs to help Latte' dhb to remove a flat screen 36' TV and cabinet which it is stored in and is very heavy, out today.....
Because tomorrow Latte' dhb is getting a new 42" plasma TV delivered .
So you could say that Latte' is being irenic...... with her dhb by saying yes dear on Saturday, you can have one w/a smile.....compromising for his wants, not needs.
When in all honesty he doesn't need a new TV because the other works perfectly fine.... lol !!!
I guess that is why Latte' has been married almost 38 yrs to the same man.....you learn to pick your battles and move on!!! LOL!!!

Bonus Question:
Is the "time change" messing with anyone's "sleep schedule" ?
I would like to give the person that claims "you get an extra hour of sleep" a piece of my mind, because now I wake up at _well actually it is now the time I am use to. Because we moved and Latte' never has gotten use to being an hour ahead of the time she lived her entire life up till a year ago. Does that make sense to anyone....lol _?


Extra Credit Question:
Who here also changed the batteries in their smoke detectors when they turned their clocks back ?
No, didn't do that! They didn't need checking. Am on top of that always!
our newspaper said you should do this .....and it is a good idea if one is not in the habit of checking them periodically.


Today is:
National Deviled Egg Day..... does any one know why they gave this delicious treat such a name? What on earth do they have to do with the devil....
Split Pea Soup Day............... Yummmmm, love all soups!
Traffic Directors Day............
Look for Circles Day.............
Name your Car Day.............. OK, thank you!
Vegetarian Awareness......... love my veggies
Notary Public Day ...............

Today's Question(s):

What are the some of the items on the list that you will have Fred take care of ? Hang up all the pictures (we just moved), put the curtains up, unpack the last 4 totes for me, spray off the porch.


Bonus Question:

Is the "time change" messing with anyone's "sleep schedule" ? Actually, now that it's been brought to my attention, I was strangely lying there "wide-awake" this morning at 6:30. Normally that does not happen . Since it was technically 7:30, it makes more sense now .

I would like to give the person that claims "you get an extra hour of sleep" a piece of my mind, because now I wake up at 6:30 ?


Extra Credit Question:

Who here also changed the batteries in their smoke detectors when they turned their clocks back ? Not I.

(our newspaper said you should do this ) It is a good idea. Also CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS are just as important. (sorry for the caps, but I'm hoping people notice!)

Vegetarian Awareness -
Notary Public Day - I'm a Notary for Alaska, but that doesn't help me anymore .

Have a great Monday everyone! It is going to be in the mid 80's here today, I'm wondering when it's going to cool down!!!
