Turning the Clocks Forward

Came upon this list of what other people do in addition to turning the clocks forward tonight. I'm exhausted just looking at this list -- My computers fix themselves, but turning the clocks forward or back is enough work as far as I'm concerned -- no rotating of mattresses for me ... but in case you're feeling peppy, here are some additional 2X a year tasks.

I will say I just did the clothes dryer one, and the toothbrush one, within the last two weeks, but independent of any particular day.
