lost and found

All is right with the world. I just found the wonderful, soft, expensive leather glove that I lost last Friday. I've been going crazy since then, trying to find it. I just went to the grocery store, which was the last place I knew I had it, to see if anyone had turned it in. (No luck there.). On Friday I actually shoveled the whole driveway, looking for it, rather than waiting for my husband ti come home and snow blow us out, because it had snowed for hours before I realized I had lost it and I was afraid the snow blower might ruin it. I didn't find it there either. As the snow has melted since then, I kept looking in the grass, thinking maybe while I was shoveling I tossed it into the grass with the snow. Nope. Looked through the car several times. Nope. But just now I was walking through the garage on my way in the house and thought to look in a box that was out there, which had been in the house on Friday. And sure enough, there it was!! Hooray!

It's a good thing, because do you know that you can't buy a decent pair of gloves in the middle of January? I've looked. You can buy swimsuits. You can buy short sleeved shirts. But you can't buy gloves. Isn't that crazy, the way the stores do that? Clearance all of the winter stuff right after Christmas and bring in summer. Who wants summer stuff in January?? We need gloves, people!

So thankfully, mine have been found.

I didn't know you'd lost it, but I'm glad it's found! Yes, being able to buy swimsuits but not gloves in January is crazy (as is being unable to buy swimsuits in August because the shelves all show sweaters!)
