In the kitchen
Good morning! :wave3: And Happy Friday! Weekend, weekend, weekend! :yess:

I am always concerned about time. Whether I'm going to be late to work or is it time for a tv show, or how much time does the dryer have on it. Things like that. And I am constantly checking a clock around the house. Which leads to the QoTD today:

How many clocks (or ways for you to tell time) are in your house?

6 clocks
2 cell phones
1 Nook
2 iPads
1 iPod
2 computers
2 FitBits (Blaze and a Flex)
3 watches

And 5 cats who know when it's time for breakfast, lunch, and supper! :lol:

There is no reason for us to ever oversleep!

Yes, animals have an internal clock, don't they?
I never realized how much I was concerned about time until you brought it up especially when I am meeting someone or have an appointment.

9 working clocks (3 decorative non-working)
2 cell phones
2 computers
3 watches
And 1 cat who is my timekeeper :wink:

I have a cell phone, pc, digi alarm clock and my ps3. I don't look at them often, mostly just when someone asks what time it is.
I have a pretty decent internal clock.

A bunch of watches in a drawer that all need batteries so let's say NONE to those :D

I guess the TV counts although the time is not displayed while watching programs.
That's about it. Not a fan of wall clocks.

The stove
the microwave (and the microwave is above the stove so it's kind of silly to have both)
a digital clock next to the TV
and my cell phone and tablet
The phone and tablet are used as my alarm clocks---yes, I do need both in case I turn one off while still half-asleep, lol.

I have to know what time it is at all times.
My cats always let me know when it was time for their meals.

There's really no reason for my kids not to know what time it is, or to be constantly asking "Mom, what time is it?"

See that innocence? This was days before the clock was knocked from it's fixture.

There is a clock on the rice cooker, but it's at least 10 minutes slow....

.....and my cell phone.

That's all. The cats have no respect for time and wake me up any hour of the day or night.

1 clock radio

3 cordless phones
1 cell phone
2 tabletop clocks
1 wrist watch with a working battery
1 clock in the car that sometimes surprises me when I see how long it took to get out the door.

My television doesn't have a clock on it; that's why I have the tabletop clocks. Mingo tells me when it's time for dinner, but that's all. Both my kitties are really good about waiting until I wake up in the morning.

I have one wall clock that has been without a battery for years. It is a picture of a herd of wild horses running and I have it on the wall because I like the picture.
