More Dots...

It is time to clean up my house. Now I can't find my gloves. It's 8 degrees below zero outside. During the day in the full light of the sun. I refuse to buy new ones. I have gloves. I just can't find them. So today I set off to walk the 8 blocks to my shopping area when after one block I realized that my hands were freezing. So much so that they hurt. So I asked the Universe for some gloves. I said "I'd like some gloves but I don't want to pay for them." And then I continued on my walk and aware that my hands and fingertips especially, were really really cold. They stung like needles. I continued on and then half a block away I spotted something small and black laying at the side of the sidewalk in the snow. I wondered to myself "could it be possible?" And sure enough it was. A glove. Black knit and laying there waiting for me to find it. I was thrilled. I said thank you aloud to the Universe. I shook the snow off and put it on. I'd thought that when I asked the Universe for gloves that maybe someone would come up to me on the street and offer a pair to me as they didn't need them, or maybe someone would drop a pair just as they were getting on the bus and then the bus would drive away and I would just pick up my new gloves. Well the one glove at the side of the walk was good enough for me. I was really thanking my lucky stars when half a block away I found the matching glove. Now I had a pair. I thanked the Universe. A block later I found another black wool glove and so I could now double-up for extra warmth on one hand. I thanked the Universe. And then two blocks later I found another black wool glove. Now I had exactly two pairs of gloves. So I am taking the time to say out loud to the Universe...T-H-A-N-K Y-O-U!
