Went on vacation the week of July 4th. When we go away I have a ritual of hiding all spare keys to the cars and important papers. Have 3 places I always use for the keys. Well I guess these places weren't good enough. Found a fourth and can't remember! Have been going crazy!!!!!

I figure if I stop worrying about it will come to me! Well this morning I was making coffee and needed more sugar packets. And there were my keys!!! In the sugar packets! What was I thinking!

Has anything like this happen to you? Would love to hear!!!

Thanks, Sue

You were thinking - No one will ever look here! And you were right. Rofl.

I got so bad I started keeping a log of where I put things. Now I am looking for my log.

only every day!!

My SIL in hereited some very valuable jewelry from her mother.... she had it out getting it appraised and didnt have time to return it to the safety deposit box before leaving town. So she hid it...... she looked for months for it...... finially she filed an insurance report/police report/etc.... a little over a yr later she found the jewelry..... it was stuffed behind the extra toilet paper in the storage room.... LOL... she said crow tasted bad when she had to call the insurance company about the find, but the jewelry had such sentimental value to it... All was made right......The insurance conpany was very understanding about it..... thank goodness!

Yes it has...except I still can't find where that hiding place is...and the diamond earrings that I put there for "safe" keeping. :(

I put my Grannys pic negtives in a safe place 3 yrs ago and I still haven't found them, I guess I'll find them when my house is built and I move in.

I have a notebook in my purse, addresses and phone numbers - when I hide something I make a note in there.

I put stuff where I won't forget then.... I can't find them nor remember where I left them!!

Once, many years ago during a move, I locked 3 sets of keys in the car. We were moving from Pensacola Fl to San Jose California and this happened in Albuquerque while visiting friends. Called AAA and then hid a key on the outside of the car.

yes! My son gave me some beautiful saffire & diamond jackets for my diamond studs. I put them in a "safe" place until I went somewhere special. That was 7 yrs. ago and they are still lost and I never got to wear them. :-(

I need a clapper for my dang cell phone!! I lose that more than anything else. Including down in my bra.....where I found it one day after asking the little neighbor girl to call my number from her cell phone; since it's on vibrate as well as ring, it was quite a surprise! To both of us!!:shock: :?

I was always laying my new phone down somewhere and then couldn't find it. I put a black shoestring on it thru the hook on the top end of it and have not lost it since. it is always there unless it is being charged at night.

ROFL

My "somewhere safe place" place must be pretty full now! :-) If the "safe" things hold a party, maybe I'll hear the music and finally find them!!

(laughing...sorry) this happens to me a lot...lol...whenever something is "lost" I remember thinking, "I'll put it here in a 'safe' place"...then I forget just which 'safe' place it is in!!!
:oops: :oops: :oops: Eventually things get 'found' again...Naomi... :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

That happens to me more times than I care to admit!!

For 30 years I did this.....forgetting where I put valuables. Put $500 cash somewhere 10 yrs ago & have never found that yet. *sigh* Now we have a safe cemented safely somewhere & all things go in there.

LOL..... well at least wtih all our " safe" places...... maybe if we ever have burglers they wont be able to find our valuables either!!!

I constantly do that! And I can always remember thinking when I put something someplace so it doesn't get lost "Oh, I'll put it here because I won't forget it's here!" Invariably, I forget. I'm only twenty three... I hope my memory doesn't get worse with time!

I've put canned goods in the fridge when putting groceries up!
