Finally found what I was looking for!

[snert]

I’ve spent at least 3 hours over the past 5 days looking for some surgical tubing I put away. I need it to make some slingshots for a couple boys. Can’t find it anywhere!
Getting old sucks! CRS!!!

Using one of those almost got me kicked outta college! Hilarious.

You haven't really lost it until you lose your eyeglasses and...Realize you have them on!! Don't ask!

Been there with my sunglasses. Blessed I don't need glasses yet. I'm only 35 though.

I tore down a Win 97 shotgun, taped all the little pieces to a sheet of paper with their corresponding take down step. Didnt do that with the trigger lever thought thats to big to loose.
Just sent Numerich $35!
Ouch!

Well, at least the misplacement of the 105's didn't involve your wife......mine puts a lot of my stuff "away". Between my wife and daughter it's a wonder I have not been committed yet.

I put away a 10'x10' Pop Up Canopy. Obviously folded in it's bag.

I've been looking for it for about 2 years and still haven't found it.

When my daughter was almost 2 my Rolex watch disappeared. I looked everywhere for about a week and someone said, "how do you know that little girl of yours didn't do something with it??" When I got home I asked her and she nodded yes. I then said, "show daddy where you put his watch..." She walked to the toilet and pointed down the bowl!!
I called a septic service guy and he said, "we'll find it if it made to the tank." $500.00 and a very nasty morning later it apparently "didn't make it"...so, he suggested I call a plumber with one of those camera snakes. $250.00 and a not as bad morning later it was not in the drain line that we could see and believe me we saw it all.
One month almost to the day I needed a reference book from my bookshelf and after having given up on the watch it fell off the top of the very book I needed when I pulled it from the shelf!!! What in gods name possessed that kid to put it there is as confounding as why she pointed to the toilet. She could barely walk and talk back then and later when asked about she says she doesn't remember anything.

 

[snert]

Don't blame her. I am 55 and I find myself pointing at toilets, sometimes I can barely walk, some things I say I swear i didn't think, and heck, I find stuff i "lost" in the damndest places.

That usually works, but not this time. The new tubing came two days ago and I still can’t find the tubing I had!

Weren’t u using that for clamping in the shop

........which is why I’m searching the shop. I need a bin marked “ Surgical hose” for the once in ten years that I have a use for it!

My buddy called me complaining about some legal paperwork he could not find. He was however happy because he found 4 Glock pistols, said he thought I had borrowed at least one. I had to remind him I have none of his firearms, but may need some in the future. Especially if his memory gets worse!

If you have something you haven't used in ten years, throw it out. You'll need it tomorrow.

 

[Termite I]

I had a problem finding rubber mallets in my welding shop. I had two but could never seem to find one when I needed it so I bought two more thinking with four I'd be able to find at least one. It worked but I still don't know where the other three are

You guys could hide your own Easter eggs

Just don't hide any in the house, they tend to start smelling badly after a month.
Don't ask!

So your daughter was ALMOST 2 years old and you thought she might know what a watch was AND where it was? Silly boy!

Kids, these days! You’re lucky she didn’t pawn it!
I know, 2 year old... they’re getting smarter faster !

 

[CharlieNC]

I'll soon be 70. Forgot what I was going to say.

 

[MislMan]

I have 3 large plastic bins that I put everything I will seldom use into. Tools, removed parts, etc. The bins are pretty full And I might need a couple more. At least the bins narrow down the search. LOL

Don't overlook the fact that she's a girl!
