Question Of The Day - Tuesday, September 4

[cassiopea]

Hello Hello!


It's the first Tuesday of September! I hope everyone is well

What is something that you always lose?





Sunglasses. I always have this divine tendency to either misplace them or break/scratch them Poor things, I never seem good to those things! Even with the best of efforts. I always wear sunglasses so I reckon it is no wonder stuff or wear and tear will happen.

 

[muffy]

Ink pens, keys and the remote control.

 

[artiemom]

KEYS!!! always!!! I think I finally got out of the habit of leaving them in the door!!!!

My Eyeglasses!!!! I have a case I put them in, nightly; however, during the day, when I take them off to change my clothes, I can never remember where I put them!!! OMGosh...

 

[Katie M]

My marbles

Seriously, I just write a ton of notes for myself, so I never lose anything.

Well, hardly ever.

 

[mama africa]

My access badge.
I suggested to implant a chip to get access to the office building.

 

[Lari]

My mechanical pencils and pens the most, I think.

Also my mind.

 

[dustydiamond1]

My grocery notes.

 

[maggiedemi]

My mind.

 

[bodester413]

My glasses all the time. I'll take them off and set them on whatever is near then forget where they are. Sometimes I'll even think they're lost and realize after looking for them that I'm wearing them..lol

 

[MeganLLB]

I lose papers. Important papers. Bills, letters, faxes, intructions. I don't have a place for papers so they always get lost.

My screw drivers.
If I need a Phillips head, it's pretty much I'm SOL but I have 6,749 regular at my disposal, and visa versa.

 

[DreamerRose]

1 bruce 1 - You ought to get one of those screwdrivers with a double head. Pull out the Phillips head, turn it over, and it's a flat head screwdriver. They're indispensable, but I have to say that I have two because I keep misplacing one.

Other than that, I don't lose things much anymore. I've always put my car keys in my purse when I turn off the engine, keep my reading glasses on an end table next to the reading chair, and grocery list in a kitchen drawer. I don't need my glasses anymore for distance, so I have been thinking about getting one of those chains to go around your neck for my reading glasses. Then I wouldn't need glasses at all except for close up.

After many years learning to always keep my keys and glasses in the same place so I can find them, I got a cell phone. I have only had it for twenty some years, so I'm not in the habit of always keeping it in the same place yet. So I'm always losing my cell phone.

 

[1 bruce 1]

DreamerRose that's on my want/must have list. It would save me a lot of headaches!
I lost my phone once out in the pasture area, big area with tall grass and I was out there for a long time. When I noticed it was missing, we called it from another phone, and "d'oh", I'd put it on vibrate!
I didn't find it for a few days, thanks be to God there was no rain during that time.

I'm terrible with phones because I never learned the fine art of keeping your phone stapled to your hand 24 hours a day I did drop one in the toilet once.

 

[neely]

Sunglasses.

Ditto, me too! I have a bad habit of going in a store and putting them through my belt loop. Inevitably they fall off and you would think I'd learn by now.

I lost my best set of Harley Davidson sunglasses this way.
20 minutes later I was back at the bank and they were gone. No one reported them or turned them into the teller. I'd like to smack the little punk that swiped them.

 

[Merlin77]

Pencils and pens, and passwords!

 

[Draco]

Whatever someone asks me for something whenever they're over my place.

Dad: Where's the tape measure? *can't find it*
Mom: Where's the toilet paper? *can't find it*

 

[rgwanner]

Passwords. I have 3 pages of passwords in my planner. Which sort of defeats the purpose.

The thing I always lose is my bluetooth. I take it off and can never remember where I put it. I will do well for a while about always putting it in my purse, but the last time I took it off two weeks ago I have no idea where I put it It will turn up eventually. I keep the bluetooth industry in business.

I bought a device called Tile. I think it was $25 for 2. I keep one on my keychain for my phone. You can push it and your phone will ring. And I keep one in my purse for my keys. It will tell you how far away they are. I recently could not find my keys, pushed the device and it said nearby. They were under papers on my desk.

If I lose my purse with my phone and keys I am in deep trouble.
