I feel your pain. I have done this more times than I like to admit. I am currently missing the first two blocks of a BOM I started getting. When I received the 3rd one, I was going to put it with the other two. I will if I can ever find them! Glad I wasn't planning on doing it them any time soon. It is nice to read that everyone does this at some time or other. But I must say the missing glasses is just weird.

I, too, lose things. I looked everywhere for my rotary cutter which I knew I had. I even remember exactly where I put it, but it was no where to be found. When I broke down and bought another I opened my sewing drawer and there were two old rotary cutters and my one new one! So I guess my gremlins brought back one of mine and one of someone else's!

Well I can tell you where all those 'missing' things are-Theres an island out in the Bermuda Triangle and its made out of all those missing things and all the stuff we put in a safe places we never find again.For the life of me I can't understand WHY this island doesn't show up on radar-sonar or even on satellite imaging. It has to be as big as the United States by now...

Reminds me of when I was in a foster home and my cigarettes disappeared out of the garage. I suspected my foster-brothers, since they really disliked my smoking. They put gun powder in my ashtray once.
Anyhow, the pack was found in the potato patch the next Spring. I think our collie took them and buried them!

When this happens to me which seems to be more often than I care to admit I just say a little fairy comes in and moves it. I hope I catch her sometime. I need a lot of my things back. Good luck finding yours.
