Cats and Dogs

Despite the fact that the calendar says that it is November, Mother Nature seems to think that it is April. Now I don't really mind that it is warmer than usual, but a little less rain wouldn't hurt. It's raining cats and dogs out there! To make matters worse, I had my cute umbrella this morning, and even though I didn't step outside all day, I no longer have my umbrella. I've been on course for 3 days and today we finished early. "Bonus - a half hour of unexpected knitting time!" I thought. Only when I went to wait for my bus in the rain did I realize that I had left my umbrella in the classroom. I rushed back (because if I miss my bus I've got one heck of a problem), but it wasn't there anymore... Here's hoping someone from the office realized it was mine. In the meantime, the bus heater feels much better than normal and hopefully I will be at least a little bit less damp by the time I get home.

I love my cute umbrella too. I sure hope yours turns up. I usually have my HUGE golf umbrella with so I can huddle the kids under. I end up feeling a bit like a mother hen.

Oh Katie,
I did the same thing sort of. I was under the train plateform looking in my bag. The train came and I left the best unbrella I have ever owned on the bench. Of course I realized it way too late and of course it was gone when I got back later that evening. Lost forever. So now I am a quest to find the best ever umbrella again...one that fits in my tote and still covers me!
