What Time Is It??

See this watch?

Clay gave it to me for Christmas last year.  It looks much nicer than my old one.  It has diamonds around the face, a purple face (my favorite color!) and it also says the date.  I love this watch!

Too bad it is missing.

Last Wednesday (a whole week now) when I was helping the girls with homework, Colby pulled on it so I took it off me, and put it on his arm and he walked into the kitchen (we were at the kitchen table).  Later I went to get it off the floor but it wasn't there.  Not to worry!  I'll find it in the morning!

That was a week ago.  Every day since I have been pleading with Colby to find my watch.  We have looked up and down, inside and out, over and under and seriously all around.  We moved the fridge and stove.  Clay took off the air return vents in case Colby put it through there.  We looked under, in, and around the couches.  Clay even took apart my piano.  We have looked in every room in the house, in every drawer and cupboard.  I even looked inside the oven and dishwasher.  Clay thinks it was thrown away with the trash, but I ALWAYS shut the pantry door where the trash is because Colby loves to get into things.  When I open the door, I immediately shut it 'cuz that kid is fast!  I am very sure (but not entirely, of course) that it didn't go in the trash.

For the past few days I have been wearing my old watch, but this morning the wristband broke.  Woe is me!  I hate not knowing what time it is!!

So if you have any ideas of remote places that it could be, let me know even though I've probably already checked there.

(And I'm harboring a tiny hope that Clay will get me a new watch for Christmas that looks amazingly identical to the one I lost.  And this watch ain't going on no baby's arm!!!)

In the couch, in the toy box, under clothes hanging in the closets, in a shoe. I've found things in all these places, good luck!

I've looked in all those places!

At least your old watch is fixed until you get a new one.
