Shy warm weather

Yesterday I wore shorts for the first time this year.
It felt good. What didn't feel good was that , that same evening, ever I came back home from my walk to staples to get my free paper (with a rebate coupon) I realized the receipt was gone! Gone, disappeared into fine air.
I have tried everything, looking for it about 10 times, calling the store, chatting online, going to sthe store to get a copy of the receipt, nothing worked so far.

On a happier note, I stretched my shrunk sweater today, after it spent a couple of days in the water with softener. The recipe only calls for 20 minutes soaking, but with my life, do you really think I can go back to anything after 20 minutes?
