Elves are stealing my winter apparel.

Okay, on mornings when it's 14 degrees outside, it's a good idea to wear a scarf and gloves. Well, I've been wearing a scarf all week, but it seems to have disappeared between yesterday's arrival at home and this morning.

When I went into the coat closet this morning to pull out last year's gloves, I found that one of them had been eaten up by something. I'm assuming/hoping/praying it was moths, but I'm suspicious. When I pulled them down from the top shelf I heard little items falling to the floor (I immediately thought, "That better not be hardened mouse poop"). There's no overhead light in that room so I couldn't fully investigate. All I know is that there'd better not be mice in my coat closet and that my hands were cold during the 15 minutes it took my heat to kick in in the car.

I guess this calls for me getting my "stand-by" gloves out of my winter sock cache: you know, those "stretch - one-size-fits-all" dealies that suck in snowball fights?
