The Prodigal Bow Tie Is Found

About two minutes after I posted about not being able to find my peanut M&M’s bow tie this morning, I immediately ran onto it. Yes, it was in the last place I looked—because there’s no reason to keep looking for something, after you’ve found it.

Here I am, still enjoying my Pajama Day of reading, writing, and no ‘rithmetic. My bag o’ M&M’s functioned as a real-life face mask this afternoon, when I had to answer the door and didn’t have a mask handy. I put the bag of candy in front of my face and answered the door to the masked Amazon prime delivery person. I am pleased to say that my candy face mask caused the prime guy to convulse in a fit of laughter, for which he gleefully thanked me as he went off to the rest of his work day.

Note to self: Eat this bag o’ candy, so you have an excuse to buy more.

I could not find my peanut M&M’s bow tie anywhere in the Tie Room this morning. It was my intended Bow Tie o’ the Day. I know it’s not lost. It’s in the Tie Room somewhere, just not in its usual place. But I’m in the mood to wear that particular bow tie, and no other. Never to be deterred, I know how to improvise when necessary. Still, not finding one of my trusted bow ties in its place discombobulated me to the point that I declared a Pajama Day for myself. I’m passing my pj morning on the love seat—reading, writing, and dozing off. I also discovered another use for my Face Mask o’ the Day. It works niftily as a sleep mask.
