I know just how you feel! Usually I can't find lost things when I look for them directly. Seems when I wait a while and am looking for something else, it will turn up. This has been happening more and more the older I get, lol. My Dad used to say, "It will be in the last place you look."

Oh me too, I would argue to my last breathe that a book had an orange cover & someone must have taken it because no orange books in book case, only to finally find it with a green cover! LOL the gremlins must have come in & changed it-LOL

Did you find your books yet? Usually I have to clean house to find what I am missing. Then I find many things I "lost" and gave up on finding.

My DH couldn't find something and he spent days looking for it, I moved his back brace and lo and behold there it was, so maybe you have put something on top of them,

The books are still elusive. I went online to see if our library system owns them, and they don't. I'm tryng to hold off buying them again, so I ordered a different book on Amazon.. I'm convinced that I left them at my brother's house a while ago, but my sister in law hasn't seen them.. I will be organizing my fabric today, as I hit a tag sale on Sun, and everything is sitting on the table.. I will try to clean a little with an incentive of finding the books..

Try putting copies of the books into your Amazon shopping card, but don't check out yet. Maybe you can "threaten" them into being found! LOL

This is hilarious!!! Thanks for the laugh.

And you know as soon as you buy them again you'll find the old copies!!!

LOL! I spent several hours last fall tearing my house apart to find a moss green t-shirt that was part of my uniform for a training weekend. Turned out it was kelly green and turned inside out. Thankfully I found that before having to re-purchase.

Cheers, K
