Frustration

Well I was determined to get the clock finished today, I had finished the painting and I spent the best part of the day printing out the little quotes and attaching them onto the little rolla-dex type mechanisim, then when I went to place it back in the clock do you think I could? No nothing would make it get back in it's little spot. Nothing. I used a metal kebab skewer and a little fork and pried and tried but nothing. I ended up breaking the mechanisim completley so I did this ... Ok have Lemons make Lemonade ... I pulled the mechanisim out and the clock part found a canvas and thought right I'll fix it and some how attach it to the canvas, have a canvas clock. Um no, turns out it can't be fixed. So now I have 31 quotes about scrapbooking attached to a little rolla-dex type thingy that doesn't work and a broken desk top clock. I am gutted, to say the least. Oh well it's not over yet!!! Watch this space!!!
