A Strange Occurrence

Today (alone in a house) I made myself lunch, and sat down to eat. Below is the view that I have when I am eating lunch (I always sit in a chair that gives me this view). 

Midway through eating my meal, about 8 minutes after starting the meal, I noticed something very strange. One of the two oven mittens was on the floor. I was very surprised by this, because my strict policy is to immediately pick up from the floor all out-of-place items I see on the floor, as soon as I see them. The moment I noticed the oven glove on the floor was after I had been back and forth in the area shown above quite a few times, to make my meal, without noticing any oven glove on the floor. It was also after about eight  minutes of eating in which I should have noticed any oven glove on the floor (it being right in front of me), but failed to do so.  While eating I was glancing at an I-Pad on the table. 

Trying to explain this, I came up with the idea that maybe by just walking back and forth in this area, I had perhaps caused one of the oven gloves to fall off the hook that holds it. I tested this idea, by walking back and forth near the gloves, trying to brush by them in a way that would cause one to fall off the hook. The test failed. It seemed that once one of these gloves is on the hook that holds it, the glove is very securely held there. Below is a closeup of the hook. 

I have one other hypothesis to explain the strange occurrence. Perhaps we have here a symbolic warning by some mysterious supernatural power. When one glove mysteriously falls, with one glove remaining, that makes a kind of "one left" symbolic motif. And that motif may symbolize that for me there is "one left" in my earthly life.  

But due to some vagueness in the phrase "one left," I need not worry too much. "One left" could mean one week left in my earthly life, or one month left in that life, or one year.  But it could also mean one decade left. And that is quite a bit of time.
