A Pocket Full...

The weather in Gemany has gotten a bit nippy this week. We had to break out jackets, sweaters and gloves that had not been worn since our Colorado days.




I found out today that reaching into the pockets of a jacket for the first time that season can go a few different ways. If you were organized and on top of things your jacket pockets are probably cleaned out and emptied at the end of winter and the next fall no surprises await you, when you slip your hand inside all you encounter is a fresh clean pocket. Of course we have all heard the tales from the less organized people who button up their jackets and slide their cold hands into the warm pockets only to come across money, usually to make these stories worth telling there is always at least a ten dollar bill hiding inside the pocket. Today when I tucked my hands inside my jacket, which has been packet up since our Colorado days, I bump into the opposite of money. Inside my pocket I found a 3 year old cold complete with dirty tissue and cough drop wrapper.
