Time Change this Weekend

[officerripley]

Yes, whenever I leave the house, I put a watch on my wrist. I have 2 watches...a nice Seiko that is easy to set, and a Timex digital that is a PITA to set....when that that one dies, that will be the Last digital I buy.

I agree about the digital watches, I prefer the old-fashioned kind; I hope they never stop making them but who knows?

I've been finding myself missing wearing a wristwatch; I haven't in years because, you know, the time is on everything and I almost always have my phone on or very near me. And, I am rarely out and about where I might need the time and never out without my phone.

But there are times when my phone is over there and the laptop is over there and I need to reset the time on my microwave (I turn unused strips off at night) and I can't because I don't know what time it is.

Or times here and there in the day when I'm in a "pocket" where I can't simply look in some direction and see the time on something and miss having it right there on my arm.

I know there are some seriously high tech watch/android things out there, but I think I'd like a small, dainty, pretty analog wrist watch.
(So what if I'll have to find my glasses before I can read it. :/

The only time keeping pieces we have that reset themselves are our cell phones and the cable tv box; we have 10 others that I have to manually re-set (one of those is our microwave as you mentioned above).

Me, too..(resetting all others..clocks W/batteries..one in very room)

My Apple watch and iphone set themselves; any others that need manual changing, I will leave for my hubby to do. It will give him something different to do on Sunday.

YEAH! The US Senate has passed a bill to eliminate changing clocks twice a year. The House is expected to do the same. It only took 104 years to coordinate the nation's time. That's split second timing for legislation in the US. And you know when one nation gets something "new", other nations are gonna want it, too.
