Purchased an item to use on a specific project--and then lost it?
Big Lots got in some scrapping/stamping stuff and I went down yesterday. Bought a boat-load of stuff, but one item in particular--for very little money.
Got home, looked over my goodies, put the particular item somewhere and I have spent the majority of today searching for it. The item is tiny, therefore it could hide ANYWHERE!
Finally found the dang thing. I had tucked it into my !%!#$%$# PURSE!
Now why would I do that?
I think I may have to join Shanon in a beer.
(Think there's room?)
I do that all the time I can't tell you how many times I had to rebuy something because I put it in a "safe" place and forgot where that was! I'll join you for that beer!
I do that all the time. I once put my younger sons homeroom party money in a safe place..... I ended up paying for all the parties out of my wallet because I did not remember the "safe place" Well 2 1/2 years later I found it, right in the kitchen on the shelf that has all the school papers and phonebooks etc, in an envelope under the pile. I think I went to AC Moore or something for a treat purchase
I can't tell you how many times I've lost stuff and searched for hours before finding it. Come to think of it, my Mom always said, "Garnet, I think you'd lose your head if it wasn't tied on." So I guess I've been doing this all my life.
Rainsong, If misery love's company then you must be feeling a bit better now. You have a lot of company. Make mine root beer and I'll be right over.
I can relate to everyone's example. I have found items, in my purse, ion a shelf, in the trash (thanks dh :rolleyes: ). I am famous for loosing my license, i always put it in my pants pockets...sigh. Dh always ask wh i have multiples of things :confused: .
I lose everything too...if I was a bit tidier it wouldn't happen (also if I wasn't such a pack rat). As for card making...I've had to put stickers coloured with orange highlighter on anything with a lid or cover (e.g. tweezer bee, xacto knife...) because if it's got a clear cover I definitely will never find it in the chaos!
It's true that having too much stuff costs you money. We have to buy replacements, spend hours per week searching for the things we put in a "safe" place, etc.
