    I have a clock on the wall that says "Id Rather Be Quilting" along with a tv and radio.

    No way, no clocks allowed. ;-)

    I definitely have to have a clock. Even with one, I sometimes forget to check the time and then I rush around trying to get supper ready on time for DH. He's always starving when he gets home. 8-)

    Mine is too high on the wall to change the time for daylight savings. Until fall I have to add an hour. :-P :-P :-P

    I'm up over the detached garage in my "studio". Hahaha.
    If I need to know the time, I click on The Weather Channel on my TV and it tells me in the lower right corner.
    Or if I do not want to know, but am "needed", my DH (darling husband) calls me on my personal phone (from his personal phone) and "reminds" me of whatever...

    Time... what is time? too little of it to finish all my UFO's.

    I have a little decorative clock in my sewing room but the battery died years ago - I haven't worn a watch since forced retirement 25.5 years ago - after 28 years of working for a living, this is my time and I spend it how I choose - little Jack Russell tells me when it's her tea time and starts nagging at 3pm - I feed her before 4.30pm then I know it's time for Bold and Beautiful and news to follow - being a lark, I get up with the birds and stop sewing around 6pm - in bed before 9pm. I've had older injured son at home for 3.5 years but he tells me when he's hungry and makes me cuppas to keep me going with my projects - I raced against the clock most of my life, so don't need one now unless for medical appointments.

    I have a clock in my classroom -- at the back of the room so my secondary school clockwatchers have to turn around to see it. Most of the time they are so busy they don't have time to watch the clock! There are even times when they are surprised that class is over so soon! At my old school I had a sign posted beneath my classroom clock that read: "Get back to work!" :lol: They actually love it!! :wink:

    I have one clock in my room but didn't even notice that it had not been keeping the correct time until my friend Nancy who spends the weekend once a month pointed it out to me. Now I have 2 clocks in there. :roll:

    I've got one in my sewing room too - also use my iphone with alarms set so I don't forget other things to do that day :) actually love clocks - made one as part of our groups challenge - will post a pic later

    I have 2 Elvis clocks, one with swinging legs and one I made myself and an HBK wrestling clock in my sewing room. Plus Elvis lamps, teddy bear lamps and my Ott lights.
