Spring Forward and Buy Batteries

Please, don't forget to set your clocks AHEAD 1 hour before you hit the pillow Saturday night. Yep. . . It's Daylight Savings Time in North America, starting Sunday morning at 2 AM. . . Well, except for any of you in Arizona and some parts of Indiana. . . I can't speak for the rest of the world.

This is also an excellent reminder to change the batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. Even if you have detectors powered by household current, they have a battery backup to keep them working if the power goes out. PLEASE. . . Don't take a chance on old batteries to save a few dollars. . . And for pete's sake, don't swipe a smoke detector battery to put in your boom box. . . Go to the store and buy batteries!!! I always have spares in the house.

Hundreds of people (too many children and pets) are killed every year, because either the smoke detector batteries are dead or missing. . . Is your kittie's life worth less than a 9 volt battery??? Or your kid???

I didn't think so. . .

Peace and Love. . .
