eventually....
A few weeks ago we had another unexpected game of 'hunt the thimble reading glasses'. BB's reading glasses lived in a neat black pouch. We found them long after dark concealed in the door pocket of the car. The previous time we played the game they were discovered ling in plain sight on to of the shiny black printer. Like this;
We just about managed to see the funny side. It had been quite a long and intense rootle through the various accumulations of stuff after we had exhausted all the obviously obvious places.
'No more!' I decreed, and found an equally neat tan pouch for them. That was maybe a week ago.
Today the glasses went missing again. We have glorious light oak floors laid down by BB about 20 years ago, still looking good.
They are a remarkably good match for the replacement glasses pouch. BB is going to put some silvery tape on the case. When he's found it.
I'm so grateful I wrote Sunday's post on Saturday and scheduled it. My neck has been 'delicate' since Sunday morning. This is Day 3 of my list of thirty items (search Nine for November and I've chosen 'tree'. (I'm running out of typing time before my neck spasms.... grrrr)
On Saturday I was fine and we went for a walk to the pond and I took some photographs. Here's the willow tree I'm considering following next year.
My cunning plan is that I will have to walk to the pond (walking is good for me!) to take my picture. What luck that I had a tree all ready to post!
I've done almost no walking yesterday and today. Rather than breaking my step count streak, currently 580 days, I'm afraid I just reduced it from 1500 (I usually aim for 2000) to 250. Hey, it's my target, I can do what I like with it!
Time's up. Need to put this away and move my head around a bit.
Ahh, it sounds painful. I hope it eases soon.
ReplyDeleteCommiserations on the endless searches. We have beepers on some things, but there's a limit to how many different tones one can have in the house, what with Alexa banging on every couple of hours with timers and reminders for this and that.
So do I!
DeleteWe don't have Alexa...
That glasses case is very well camouflaged - a strip of contrast tape is definitely a good idea
ReplyDeleteI think he's found the tape now. I'm wondering if we have and striped silver and tan surfaces in the house now
DeleteYou have my sympathy on the walking target thing. Mine is usually around 2000 but sometimes I do well to hit 500. And I deserve congratulating on doing that!
ReplyDeleteI reckon as long as it's not sloth that has kept me on the settee all day I'm happy with what I manage 😀
