Quarantined…

.. Some days all one can say is, ‘Some planet is obviously retrograde today (or has perhaps fallen out of the sky altogether?)’…

This parcel (wool fabric) arrived.
Oh Very Dear.
It absolutely stank.
Of what?
Who knows? One of us thought chemicals and I (!) thought mustiness in the extreme.
It permeated the house, to the point of us feeling ill, so it must be returned. No amount of fabric freshener will freshen this!

To add insult to injury I turned up for a meeting earlier to find no one else there (and no one thought to inform me of any cancellation).
Feeling a tad insignificant!!

It probably says a lot about me that my first thought was that I’d wasted good hair conditioner, which I wouldn’t normally have used if my day was going to be home alone!
And my second was that I’d wasted good make-up too!! Ditto :-)

My final grumble is that the butternut squash awaiting transformation to our favourite tagine, was mouldy inside.That’s a first in my experience.

But it couldn’t have chosen a better day :-)
