My precious.

Mum just came over asking if I had any shoe boxes, just so happened I had one sitting on the dining table and I gave it to her.

As soon as it left my hands the thought that I liked that shoe box ran through my head, I told her that and took it back, then gave it back. Did this about 3 times. I searched my craft room for more, she needed 2 and found another for her.

I tried offering her other boxes in an effort to get my 'precious' box back but they were too big. As she was halfway across the yard I looked on the shelf by the door and noticed another shoe box, quickly tipped out what it stored and called her back.

My precious shoe box was safe at last! It occurred to me that I like the box better than the shoes that came in it. It is a nice sturdy box, which is holding up much better than the shoes.

As you can see I'm wearing Jeans today, it's Jeans for Genes Day and I'm just about to leave for work. I'm hoping to be allowed to wear them, didn't get a definitive answer when I asked yesterday. The jeans look better than my regular work pants, which were too short so I let the hem down and now they look ratty at the bottom.
