Do you loose things? Or do you just misplace them? I loose my library card, every time I do It costs me $2.00. I don't know where it goes, everytime I loose it I try to find a new responsible place to put the new one. Maybe subconsciously I just want to donate to the library.

My fiance and I lose stuff ALL THE TIME. The worst thing we ALWAYS lose is our keys. and we always seem to lose them right before we have to leave to go somewhere (usually to work). We both get extremely frustrated with one another when we can't find them and then blame the other person for the house being messy enough to not be able to find anything. Another thing I always lose is my favorite t-shirts. and youre probably wondering how i could lose a t-shirt, right? ME TOO! I have no idea where they go, but they are always missing when i want them and then when i don't need them and want something else, they are so easy to find. i think that someone is playing tricks on me sometimes. My fiance has trouble losing her money/wallet/credit card. She has recently transferred her stuff to a bigger wallet, but i dont think she likes using it. she is always saying that she is missing money, or doesn't know where her card went to, or that she took her wallet out of her purse and doesn't know where she put it. But i think we are both constantly losing things because we lost our minds years ago! =) we lose the remote all the time too.

I have two different solutions to the sets of keys. When we had several adult people living here we made each person a set of all keys to all vehicles, then a spare set was put in the Key Box on the wall. Pretty good, until I got a new husband who will not comply and who is constantly buying new old cars to work on. The solution that is most effective for me at this time is that I have a hook for my keys right beside the door I come in when I come home. Before I step away from the door the keys are hung up. As long as I do that, I am fine. My mind, however, is missing as well.

Its weird but I never lose anything. I place everything back in the same place all the time and I never have trouble finding what I need.

Thanks, my family always says that it is weird because everything of mine has to be in a certain place.

Maybe you really do just want to donate to the library. I have lost a few things, but to misplace them is more my tendency. They usually show up when I've long since given up finding them but am looking for something else lol. Karen

just put it that way my friend to ease your worries. anyways, i am also a very forgetful person. i always misplaces things and worst, lost some. even some valuable things like my rings, necklaces, earrings... got lost because i always forgot where i have hidden them. sometimes its so frustrating because you cannot find the way to bring it back, to find it. jhelai

That is what I used to say about my overdue books. I was donating to my favorite charity. I just found one I lost about four years ago. Now I have one pretty well under control.

I think we lose things and I am sure I have lost some things but, not too many. When I lose money I always think that I am paying for some past debt.

I am forever putting things away in a ‘safe’ place and forgetting where that is! I am doing it more and more these days, must be age related for me I’m sure! My daughter had a drawing published in the paper and wanted to keep the page so she asked me to put it with the other one that was published a few months ago which mummy put away ‘safely’. You guessed it, couldn’t find it anywhere! We were both devastated and it took two weeks before it fortunately showed up. I had put it in her bedroom dresser with her clothes (??) I need help.

LOL..that may be what it is. I do misplace things sometimes. I had an issue with my drivers license for about a year..lol..I could not keep up with it. I guess I wanted to give to the state.

Pat- We've gone through three college ID's for my husband and the other day when cleaning the top of a book shelf I found them! So, now he's got three in his wallet. I constantly misplace the remotes to the television. Our television has one remote and then I have another for the cable box, so when moving around with children I find them in the oddest locations. Just today I found the dvd remote hidden in with my records! I'm not quite sure what it was doing there, but who knows. I'm sure I did a "this will be a good place" and then forgot I put it there. Have a wonderful weekend. Namaste-Anora
