Discovered a few things- a handful of batteries, several notes to myself and an address book that seems to have been missing for AGES. Now to update it...I found a nappy pin that was mine when mum was brave enough to use cloth nappies (oh how noble!)- does that count as vintage?- if not now then when?!; I found some pens I've replaced several times (at less than a fiver each I'm not too worried about having several; I'm just long on pens for the moment); I've uncovered some business cards for contacts from a conference a few weeks ago and several vouchers that I'd better get my a-into-g and use before they expire.
I think that found possessions aren't so much about being found- just re...discovered. It's a nice afternoon surprise to see a half used tube of favourite lipgloss, a few more gold-coloured coins than you remembered in the coin dish and that handier-now-than-before book of stamps. They'll do nicely, thank you red-riding-hood basket(s)! And the bonus of the day is that now these baskets are emptied of debris I can put them to good use... (read: fill again!)- but perhaps with a bit less abandonment...post; getting ready for Christmas post and essential desk (yes, at the dining table) paraphernalia.javascript:void(0)
