Wind-up items will not keep good time with me. My real struggle is with small electronic devices. They simply do not last. It won't be a battery alone. I can replace the battery once or twice but it will die. Corded devices are more hardy around me. Not sure about the spiritual slant, but I do seem to have a lot more static electricity than most. It seems like a small thing, but I can quickly kill little electronics. As a child, a small transistor radio would last six months max.
