"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

Wanted: My Mind Back

Yesterday, I went to the store.

I forgot my purse.

I went home and got my purse.

I went to the store again.

I forgot my wallet.

I ended up paying $3.08 with 300 pennies and one dime.

Don't ask why I had 300 pennies in the car.

Today I went to drop something off to Justin at school.

I forgot my phone.

So, I found a parking spot (miracle of miracles!), got all three children out of the car, took it inside myself, and went back home.

I found my phone in my coat pocket once I got home.

Sigh.

They say things come in threes. I am not looking forward to number three.
