Random Thoughts On A Rainy Walk

1. At the same time my umbrella half collapsed (yes, I'm still using the old broken one) and got caught in my hair (yes, that worry was valid), I realized I was still wearing my rubber finger tip from the office.  Well, my finger does feel naked without it.

2. The ability to master buttons is amazing.  As a kid there is the struggle to push a button through the right hole, and here I am now, the boss of these buttons, doing them up with one hand as I hold a collapsing umbrella in the other.

3. Maybe the rubber finger helped with the buttoning?

  5. It appears I have a lot to learn about juggling umberellas on the way to the car from work. I am so used to parking in the car park right outside the door I never had need for an umberella! Now I have moved jobs it is a whole different story and I had a major brolly malfunction yesterday, juggling work bags, library books for the kids and an umberella that refused to stay the right way round.....How do you do it?? I need lessons, buttons and a broken brolly!!!
