This is going to be nice and short because I know that we all have tons to do today and I want us to enjoy our weekend, not sit here reading.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that your electronics will probably use up more electricity, in their lifetime, while they&#8217;re turned off than when they&#8217;re on? That&#8217;s because electronics continue to draw power as long as they&#8217;re plugged in. That power has to be there, ready and waiting for you to hit the on button. So, how do you prevent this? It&#8217;s easy! Grab a power strip and plug your devices into it. Then, flip the switch when you go out or it&#8217;s time for bed. Easy Peasy, folks!<\/p>\n<p>Your quick challenge for today: Do a general inventory of your electronics. Do you have any that are broken down? That you&#8217;re no longer using? If so, say goodbye to them and let them go. Make room for the things you love and clear the clutter right on out of your homes!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view&amp;current=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" alt=\"Photobucket\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mcklinky.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mcklinky.com\/images\/MckLinkyLogo119.gif\" width=\"119\" height=\"39\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I&#8217;ve spent time under my tech table this past week, I thought I might write just a little bit about power strips.
