when you sit down to do your needlework & realise that you have put your Didy's with their magnifying lenses on instead of your hobby glasses.

Actually it was even worse than it sounds - not only had I walked out to the studio to pick up aforementioned Didy's, rather than pick up the hobby glasses that were sitting with my needlework - but I didn't realise my mistake until the Mailleman started laughing uncontrollably at me.
And I'd wondered why the light was strange ;o)
