Life This Week 24/2/2020: Unusual.


Things that were off the beaten track for me this week:
I stumbled upon this VHS videocassette that had been put on the verge for bulk rubbish collection.  It was a sobering moment trying to explain to Master SSG what they are and they did way back in the day.  How can the eighties be so long ago?
This roundy-spinny thing I was put onto at Mitre 10.  It’s unusual to me as I only own a very basic set of tools for odd jobs around the house.  It was cheaper than buying a wrench and socket to secure the one hexagonal screw I had to attend to over the weekend.  I wonder when I’ll ever use it again?

Is it a cute fluffy-tailed panda or is it a tape measure?  It’s both and its new home is in my knitting bag.

Because knitting is the new running around here, another knitting moment is next up in the post.  I wonder if a knot in your ball of wool from Spotlight is like finding a double-yolked egg in a carton from the supermarket?  A sign of good luck, perhaps for the knitting project the blessed ball of wool is about to become a part of.  Even tensioned stitches, no lost stitches….  I can only hope.

Unusual for this week but not for much longer than that was the official start of my career as Director of After School Activities slash Personal Assistant to a preppie.  I have bought so many things for so many different activities these last few weeks.  Dance stores, sporting goods stores, tabs on Amazon I’ve never clicked on before.  It’s a busy life being seven these days.

Over to you.  Anything unusual from your week just gone?
