> Hi Kara,

> You said that you are worried you might turn off the alarm without remembering it, etc. I worry about that, too, so you know what I do? You're probably going to think this is excessive. . .I have five alarm clocks. I have a few electric ones and a few battery-operated ones as back ups. The electric ones are louder and even more annoying than the others. I place them all around the room so I have to get out of bed to turn them off. My father used to suggest putting a metal alarm clock on a plate so it would make a lot of noise. I hate my alarm clocks. I'd like to throw them all out the window.

NO, I definitely don't think that 5 alarm clocks is crazy. I have used three until recently when one of them broke. I had them strategically placed as well. For one of them I have to get up out of bed. I tried putting one in the living room but I didn't hear it. Maybe I should get a couple more of them and place them on the other side of the room. It's worth a shot anyway.I had a friend come to visit last year. She said that my alarm clocks would go off and I would be sleeping through it. They were plenty loud too. I guess that explains why my alarm clocks were running so late. :-) Now I have one of them set for the radio to come on very loudly. I don't think I have ever slept through that though. I hate them too.
