the night before last, i lost my most beloved pair of mittens. they were knit, blue patterned, handmade, fleece-lined and kept my cold, cold fingers warm. what a joyful discovery that was- there is pair of mittens that can actually keep my impossibly cold hands warm. they were a present from my grandma. i had picked them out from a store in bayfield. waited patiently for christmas when they would find their way under the tree. and now, they are gone..
it makes me want to cry.
sometimes you just can't handle losing your mittens, you know?
so, if you see a lost, lonely blue knit pair of mittens, tell them i am missing them, too, and send them my way please, ok?
thanks friends.
when did you last see them? perhaps on your quest to find them, you will find another pair to serve you well.
ReplyDeletethat is a sad story indeed. I do hope you find them. but in the event that you don't, perhaps you can take comfort in someone else's finding them. perhaps you can take comfort in your beloved mittens keeping the hands of someone else warm, knowing you had a part in that in this accidental way. & knowing that you know just where to go to find another pair.
