Paper Memories
Today I found the following on an old, faded index card:
I often find bits of paper around the house with scribbled notes on them. Sometimes it's a corner of an envelope or a grocery receipt. Other times it's the back of an old postcard or half a Post-It note. Whatever it is, it is often unclear what I was trying to remember. If it has the name of some food item, than it could be part of a grocery list (or not), but more often than not, the paper has a short phrase or one word underlined several times.
I find these bits of memory in old purses, shoved in my checkbook, sticking out of books I've read, or am in the middle of reading, in my shower caddy, my side table, lying on the floor and sometimes, even stuck to my clothes. I'll share a few of them here:
William- not Bill & certainly not "Dick"

Letter with bits of sand in the envelope.
Boston's south side
Miss Hargreaves frank baket (at least that's what it looks like)
Ribbon for Anne's jar
Discombobulated
Tap the clock at top
It's a beard
It's hard to see why I'm not a member of Mensa, isn't it?
