    In other news I have lost one of my hearing aids. Most annoying.  They were on the charger & I knocked it over & just can't find one.  Now tired from crbawling about looking for it. I'm vexed.
    Think rebound from where it roughly fell as you may have tapped it with your foot without noticing. 

    Other than that, get the cats with their nimble feet to help … 😉😊

    I was terrified last night I would stand on it! Anyway, it's no where to be found.
