Clocks springing forward!
Reminder that this week we change the clocks and spring forward one hour!
This is a good time to CHANGE THE BATTERIES in your smoke and carbon detectors!
I have had one foster parent publically credit me for being a pain in the you know what checking them after she had a fire and was thankful they were working…. And two foster parents were thankful their carbon detectors worked and thanked me for checking them after they had an incident.
