I had the weirdest memory today--I'm not sure whether it came up because it's getting close to Mother's Day, or whether the sound actually triggered the memory to free itself from my locked-down brain. It was probably both.
In any case, I was brushing crumbs off my work desk and the sound of my ring on the table sounded exactly like the sound of my mum's wedding band as she would brush crumbs off our kitchen table after meals (she would cup them in her other hand and throw them away; I tend to brush them on the floor...alas). It's such a small memory, but I can picture it exactly.
It was like a little gift to remember this.
