Daylight Savings Time is coming up this weekend so get ready to spring forward!
Daylight Savings Time is a way of making better use of the daylight in the evenings by setting the clocks forward one hour during the longer days of summer.
At 2 a.m. on Sunday March 13 our clocks are readjusted forward by an hour.
This adjustment will take place automatically on smartphones, computers and tablets, but for those still living with non-automated devices on your wrists or shelves you will have to manually upgrade the time to stay current.
Sorry to say we’ll lose an hour of sleep because of the change, but it also means we’re one hour closer to spring…ahhhhh.
There are plenty of fun things to do with your family right here in Calgary for the Family Day holiday Monday February 15th. There is no shortage of activities downtown or in the burbs for people to explore.
How many times have you watched a TV show where a homeowner has tried his hand at renovating his kitchen or basement and ended up with a big disaster? Probably quite a few. There are in fact, so many would-be amateur renovators that networks like HGTV broadcast a variety of how-to shows with a focus on home improvement and renos gone bad!
Maximize your energy savings (lower monthly bills!) without sacrificing comfort. Install a programmable thermostat that can be set to automatically turn heat on and off. Lower the temperature at night or while you’re at school/work and return it to the desired setting before you wake or arrive home. They’re easy to install. All you need is a few simple tools and about 20 minutes!
Experts from all areas of home renovation, home décor or home buying will be on hand to showcase their companies, their services and their products.
