This week I am house-sitting for some of my customers and also dogsitting a very lovely spaniel-lab mix named Max who likes to snuggle in the middle of the night and has a habit of sneezing in my face.

He’s pretty sweet, and I’m having a lot of fun, but it’s a little strange to blog from someone else’s home. But I can’t neglect you guys, and also, The Mighty Ducks isn’t as entertaining as it was when I was 13. (Though Emilio Estevez is totally still as cute as he was, I remembered that part right!)

While on my vacation with my best friend. She took me to this place called Beacham’s clocks.

Beacham’s clocks is my new favourite place.


This is one of my favourite clock faces, I’ve taken photos of more than four clocks with it, but have yet not been able to find it to buy. Aren’t the numbers cool?


I ended up with this clock face. It now lives on my wall. I’m rather fond of it! I also bought a few paper faces too!


This clock is pretty appropriate for my movie today. Quack quack!

This whole week I’ve been home I’ve spent looking online for more clocks and clock faces. Am I the only person who gets semi-obsessive about things like this? Once you find one… you just want to find more!
