I sraightened my sewing room once(doesn't get it often) and put away a pair of snips that i was going to givew to a friend b/c i bought 2 pair(forgot i had one already) and then when i wanted to give them to her, i couldn't find them. Later i found them on top of the bookcase. I lost my son's wedding album for about a year. My Dh was convinced that i had left it somewhere, but i hadn't taken it anywhere. i finally found it in the pocket of my suitcase! I had put it in there to carry a bunch of upstairs to the spareroom. in order to make one trip, i had put stuff in the pockets and apparently forgot.
