Well, maybe except for me! My lovely vintage (old) clock decided to stop last week. Just stop. No amount of plugging and unplugging, shaking, or pleading would make it's hands move.
I was given this clock from our friend Ronnie, he said it hung in his mother's kitchen for many years, and it has been ticking for me for at least fifteen. I LOVE THIS CLOCK! function, form, and a very short cord.
Dave took it down and replaced it with a recently acquired (new) clock. The new one is hard to read, It ticks too loud. It has no history. And, it keeps falling off the wall!!
Today I came home from work, and there is my old friend, keeping time and looking good! I don't know what Dave did, but I am happy!

Today is my birthday,and it is a nice round number. (Rhymes with nifty) Somehow having the familiar timepiece in working order again gives me great satisfaction, and hope for my own ability to keep on ticking. I guess we all need a little break now and then.
