Small And Simple Gifts

The Flying Alarm Clock

Perfect small and simple gift for those who have a hard time getting vertical in the early morning. It's a "tough love" sort of thing.

Requires 4 AA batteries (the rechargeable or solar type)
Features a snooze button.
Directions: Set the alarm to the time you wish to get up. When the alarm is triggered, an audible siren sounds and the propeller is launched. To turn off the alarm the propeller must be returned to the base unit.

Now you are up.

***Warning-this gift may become "stuff" so do not give it to some one living under your roof.

THis reminds me of my growing up days. My youngest brother had a morning paper route. His alarm would go off. One by one each of us would wake up but my brother, NO!; it seemed like nothing would wake him. Usually my mother (Saint Lois) would go downstairs, turn off his alarm and get him out of bed.

I am an early riser so very seldom use an alarm clock. If I woke to a siren I would not be in a very good mood. I like to set my timer connected to a small fan facing a set of gentle wind chimes, it is a softer way of telling me to get out of bed.

Siren......wind chimes.....hmmm.

One gets your day started fast and angry the other slow and calm.

I'm moving my wind chimes!!!

How would you react if someone put this little gadget in your bedroom?

When they least expected it, I'd get even. Not with the alarm clock though, I'd find something else, worse.

I'll look around the web and see what I can come up with.

It's weird - but I have always felt so jolted by an alarm that usually no matter what time I set it, I'll wake up BEFORE it goes off.
