The mystery of the…..

What’s a mystery from your own life that you’ve never solved?

Ive never found them…my red reading glasses…perched on the end of my nose for close up work or reading….where did they go!

I’ll find them when cleaning the salon, I told myself….they will tilurn up.

I carry on about my evening, cooking, chatting to kids, watching tv…(no glasses needed for that back then).

Everyday I looked, every day a mystery.  The black ones, the spare ones, would have to do.

Fast foward 8 years…8 years of looking and wondering, but nay, still no red glasses.

I’ll find them when im packing the house up, but nay, nowhere in sight were the red glasses to be found….

Every nook and cranny was searched, every cupboard emptied, as we were moving house, every hand bag checked…. still no sign of the red reading glasses.

It must be the ‘little people’, ‘ the borrowers’, the ‘others’.

Perhaps it was a client! Perhaps the striking shade of sexy red suited her newly applied crimsen coloured lipstick…perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

Perhaps Iaccidentally chucked them out with the waste! 😁

So now purched continously atop my nose sits, my purple varifocal glasses….the beauty of ageing eyesight!
