I shouldn't have been bragging about how I hadn't had a power outage for several years, because guess what..last night during the storms the power blipped. It really was out only about 6 minutes..just long enough to screw up all the clocks and so forth. I thought it went off and immediately back on, but I noticed a difference in the time, so it may have been off longer than I thought. Well, now I will say we haven't had an extended power outage for years.

Yeah, clocks being off is annoying, but it could be a lot worse.

@LadyDuck Yes, and the one in the bedroom I don't know how to set. It is only off by a few minutes though. I just have to keep remembering it is.

@snowy22315 - That is the worse when there is a power outage, the clocks being off.

Yes, you'd probably be thrilled if your power just went off for a few minutes instead of for hours or days.

That is what often happens. Glad it wasn't long
