Howard MillerHubby just surprised me with one of those original Howard Miller ball clocks. You know the kind, yes? It was in one of their old offices, and the guy there said, “sure, take it.” yay. Only thing, the plug is right on the back of the clock. How the heck do I put it up? I don’t have any outlets smack in the middle of a wall? And it’s kinda heavy too… hmm. But anyway, that was a nice surprise. (the balls are actually that blue color) (umm, no, I didn’t say it!)

Before he came home, I was swearing at myself for being so damn unorganized with my biz paperwork as I tried to find something I needed. Really. I have about 3 spiral notebooks that I write client info and notes in (in addition to various passwords etc., etc.) and, a handful of little pieces of paper thrown in my “in-box” as well. How annoying. Did I find what I was looking for? But of course, eventually I always do. I guess that’s why I haven’t changed my modus operandi for the last how many years. dork.

Well, I s’pose. Gotta turn the air back on… actually had a little break yesterday. I don’t care much for the air conditioning, but I sure am glad we have the option.

Stay cool, talk later.

    what a nifty clock! …would an extenstion cord work maybe, if you sort of plugged it in christmas light style? (end to end to end…) but then, you’d have a big ugly extenstion cord running along the wall… ? ok, nevermind me. :)

    Bran, it’s not even the cord thing that would bother me – it can’t even hook up that way. The plug is the equivalent of the “hole” to hang the clock up with against the wall. It wouldn’t even go on the wall if there was an X-cord on the back.
    poo.
