This week I finished making the mirror I was working on. I was able to cut out three different colors of acrylic to give the mirror's border a "tiled" look. After cutting out the pieces I arranged them in a circular pattern and then glued them to the wooden frame that held all of the pieces. After the glue dried I cleaned up the excess that spilled onto the top of the acrylic pieces and brought it home. The end result is pictured below.

After I completed the mirror, I went back to working on the Word Clock code because last time I used it, I discovered there was a bug somewhere in the code that just stopped reading the time and turned off the lights. Currently, I am trying to figure out if the bug is still there. Along with this, I found that the RTC was not reading the correct time at some points despite the piece itself working perfectly fine. Below you can see the issue of reading the time in the serial monitor, the incorrect display and time is displayed until I switched the RTC for a different one.
