I’m stuck here in the states. My girlfriend, Mary, who is in Puerto Rico, sold our car that we used there. I haven’t been there in over 2 months. When the people who were buying the car showed up, she couldn’t find the keys. She calls me to tell me she can’t find the keys. I said if you can’t find them, I certainly can’t.
Later I was out with a buddy of mine and I lost my sunglasses. I told him, I should call Mary to see if she can find them.
@J Short – You haven’t seen your girl friend, who lives in Puerto Rico, in two months? Curious how is that workin for you? Did she find your sunglasses?
Not long after we were married (over 30 years ago), I lost the remote to the TV. I finally looked in the trash barrel where I had just burned the trash and there were the smoldering remains on top of the newspaper. I was so mad at my own stupidity while my bride thought it was hilarious. What made it worse was that night I would almost get to sleep and she would start giggling. I’d get mad again, she would apologize and in a few minutes here she’d go again. It was a few years before I could laugh about it.
Hate to admit it, but I’ve thrown my own keys in the trash…a public trash can…and my wife went back and looked and found them. So, yeah, it happens. And it is reeeally embarrasing!!!
Similar story but it was my Costco credit card. I was entering the store (and you may know you have to show your card to get in). I had something else in my hand to throw away and in went the card. Everyone coming and going saw it happen as well as my friend who was shopping with me. She’s never let me forget it….
I keep a Tile tracker attached to my keys. I don’t need it very often, but when I do, I really need it. There was one time it led me to my keys in the rubbish.

At least someone else doesn’t have them.

When my oldest sone was about two years old he buried my keys in a flower pot. It took a month to find them.

If you yours is expensive, try pricing one for a fully equipped wheelchair van, luckily it was the spare key.

why is it when you are trying to find something you look in places you know it would never be.
