Guess for cookies
You know how I love clocks. And last night we had to turn our clocks ahead one hour. Daylight savings time came really early this year. After the first few, it occured to me that it was quite a job to turn all those clocks ahead. 
So, to the person who can guess the correct number of clocks that I had to turn ahead last night…..ta da….drum roll please……I will send some cookies.
How many clocks did I turn ahead last night? Yes, the Harry Potter station clock counts as two.

I don’t really know the true amount….only what I imagine is true. I just thought this up before we went to bed last night. Just knowing we were losing an hour of sleep made me NOT sleepy and we both stayed up way too long. We just got up….it’s NOON!
I never thought about watches and phones. hmmmm, I will have to count them I guess.
@elmarstel: I have to bake them first

@majong….better get your guess in….I have not counted the clocks yet, so I don’t really know who is the winner.
I will end the contest on Tuesday and announce the winner. Then I have to bake cookies Tuesday night.

Ok, here is the deal with my clocks.
I re-read the question and it said…how many clocks did *I* change. Blips wanted to count all the things that adjust themselves automatically. Nope.
Here is the count breakdown (drum roll please)
Kitchen/dining room= 5
Hall= 1
Baths= 0 (who wants one in there?)
Bedroom= 3 (one unhooked and not counted)
LivingRoom= 5 (3 unhooked and not counted)
FamilyRoom= 7 (one quit but I keep it around because I just plain like it, not counted of course)
Car= 1 (mine, I did not count anything Blips changed)
I don’t know how to change my watch, so Blips does that.
So the grand total is 22 and that makes Sam the winner.
Congrats Sam…..going to bake cookies right now
I hope you like Peanut butter oatmeal. If not, speak up soon.
