Sometimes I just get irritated
No, I am not mad about not winning the lottery tonight. And yes, I realize they have not done the drawing yet, but I am a realist.
No, I am not mad about the furnace cleaning this morning, even though I had to get up at 7:30. I have not been up that early in months.
No, I am not mad about the weather, which is actually pretty darn nice for October.
What am I mad about?
Let me tell you.
About 6 months ago I bought some lidded glass storage containers. The set came with a variety of sizes and shapes and they are good for storing leftovers. They are dishwasher safe and can go from cold to hot without any problem.
I love them. They are easy to open, you can see what is inside....almost perfect.
Yesterday I noticed achip out of one of the round ones.
Now, I am not a person who tosses stuff out willy-nilly. But this is glass and someone could cut themselves on the sharp edge. Also, how do I know the glass won't chip further?
It was right on the lip, so my fear was putting the lids on or off could cause more damage. So I tossed it.
Tonight, I noticed a chip on a large rectangular storage dish. The same thoughts ran through my mind and again, I tossed it.
Was I acting irrationally? Would they have been safe to use in the microwave and in the dishwasher?
Another thing I am mad about.
Jackie lost the back to one of her earrings while she was cleaning them. She keeps the sink drain closed, so they can't go down the drain.
I looked everywhere for that back and could not find it. It is not stuck in the rug, or on the floor, or in a drawer, or her walker, or anyplace. I ran my hand over the floor, shined a flashlight over the floor, swept the floor....no back.
It just seems to have disappeared.
Maybe it is with the damn calendar I can not find, but both loses just fry my cupcakes.
Which, by the way, is an expression I just made up.
Maybe we have a ghost.
Peace and Love
