This morning I was baking Banana Bread in the kitchen when my CD in the living room ended. I dried my hands on the kitchen towel and went to put another CD in. I had a new one that I hadn’t listened to yet. I attempted to take off the plastic wrapping when I remembered that I had one of those gismo’s that opened CD packages easily. I looked everywhere and didn’t find it, however, I did find a star to an American flag that had flown over an America soldiers home. I had purchased it at a Veterans event a while back and wanted to give it to my brother who is a disabled Vet. I was so happy to find it and remembered I had a letter I was sending to him waiting in the hallway. I went to get it and of course I had already sealed the envelope. I tried to open it to no avail and remembered someone telling me you could unseal an envelope by putting it in the microwave. And so I did. Unfortunately I let it go too long and it caught on fire. I rescued it from the microwave and blew out the flame. It wasn’t completely destroyed. I brought it into my office where I put the star in the envelope and then taped it all up and set it back on the hall table to go out in today’s mail. Then I stood there in the hallway and wondered what it was I was doing in the first place. I went into the kitchen and remembered, “Oh yes I was baking bread.” Then after a few seconds I thought, “No I was doing something in the living room…but what?” I went into the living room and eyed the stereo which was still on but nothing was playing. “Oh I was opening that CD. Now I remember.” Oh dear where the heck did I put it? I walked into the office and there it was on the desk. “hmmm.” I thought. “Why in the world did I bring it in the office?” Oh well may as well open it and play the darn thing. Oh crap. I can’t open it. Where is that little gismo that I bought to help me open these things?
