Woe is Me

My dear husband is a tad obsessive and we regularly misplace things. Evidently I misplaced several things which were unimportant but were beloved and of fantastic sentimental value. They have to be somewhere but we have been looking everywhere for letters and his memorabilia. I have torn the house apart and cannot imagine where they would be.

It is raining and nasty outside. Just the kind of day to snuggle up with a good book, but instead I am searching. It reminds me of the fact that when Adrienne was a toddler, you could ask her to look for something and she assumed a comical, leaned over stance and said "looking, looking." We used to ask her to look for our keys just to watch her look.

Bye for now...Jeri.

Marg, for some reason there was not a place for a reply. It just drives me crazy to know I have seen something and that I can't find it.

I hate searching for something. It drives me nuts!

Losing/misplacing something ranks right up there as a major aggravation in my life. I'm still pondering the disappearance of a Lion lapel pin that sat on my dresser for 10 years--always right there for the next meeting. Suddenly, gone. Don't tell me where to look for it. I've been there a hundred times!

Hi Jeri; well, 25 years ago I lost a key ring full of keys
on the front lawn of my house in San Antonio.
I got down on hands and knees and searched every square inch
of the yard from the curb all the way to the front door and
never found them. Those keys simply disappeared--some fourth
dimension sucked them up is all I can figure--but after all
this time I'm still puzzled about where those keys went.
and searched every square inch of the yard

Loved the story of Adrienne. Reminded me of Kenna when she was small. We would be walking along and she would start falling behind because her little legs couldn't make the strides ours could. I would turn to her and say, "Come on", to which she would respond, "I'm comeoning!" "I'm comeoning!" Kids do such sweet things and say such cute things. Hope the memorabilia turns up.

Two houses ago we bought a big bag of popcorn and I dumped it into Tupperware and lost it somewhere in the house, and it never turned up, even when we moved. I felt like someone must have broken in and stolen that one thing. Sometimes I think I might dream of the location of something I've misplaced, but even though I might have the dream, it isn't accurate. Good luck - I'm sure they'll turn up, unless someone broke in and stole that one thing.

Such a cute remembrance. I hate it when I can't find something. If you stop looking, looking, maybe you will find it.
