Most expensive thing is a 300.00 key for my truck. I do it all the time with things. I couldn’t find the tool for anti theft lug nuts for my boat this morning.I had it, but I put it somewhere safe. I drove an 11/16 socket on the lug, was able to get them loose, threw them away.
What do you have in a safe place that you can’t find?? I’m still looking for my Dodge key. It’s here somewhere.

I got a really nice bottle of bourbon somewhere. I don't know where I hid it.

I got the big pot and steamer insert out tonight to steam a couple of ears of corn. Filled pot, put in steamer, put in corn. Couldn't find the lid, which I thought had come out of the cupboard with the pot and steamer.
After looking through cupboards and dishwasher and other likely places, I found it......................
on top of the coffee maker where I had set it while filling the pot.

Couldn’t find the Saleen keys high or low so I went and got the spare set. Went outside to lock the shop before leaving and there the originals were on my workbench . They’d been there about a week.

I lost a $20,000 tele-handler for 3 days one time til I remembered what job it was on. Misplace trailers and dump trucks all the time. Usually, a day or so I find them.

I've done that. I've also lost a tool I was using and hadn't even left the room.
My wife has a mind control trick she plays on me. I open the cupboard and look for something. Get frustrated and close the cupboard. She walks in, opens the cupboard and what I was looking for is front and center. Damn near glowing. Not sure how she does it.

Never know where anything is going to be, it's like a big adventure! Hey, where's the 1.5qt sauce pan today, yahoo

A friend of mine hid the cylinder to his single action Colt 357 so his grandkids couldn't use his gun if they found it. When he needed it he couldn't find it so he had to order another one. The day after the new one was delivered his wife found the original right where he put it, in a tea cup.

Came out of Sportsmans ware house one day, could not find my Dodge Ram truck. Running around like crazy, going ape $hit, and getting ready to report it as stolen!
Then it dawned on me I was driving my wifes mini cooper that day!! Found it.

I quit drinking more than a few years ago..... and a the time I had a a big fat bag of weed. I thought it best to stop smoking weed too... as I'm sure it would lead me back to the bottle.... onto the straight and narrow...
And it worked... once I quit all that stuff... my life was so much better.
40 years later...... I'm adding yeast to large jars of fruit juice.... I'm looking around the farm for where I hid that stash....
Well... we have come to the point.... where... the parasites are killing the host. It's only a matter of time now.
They only win.... when they cheat.

Because odds are she has moved it. This. And anytime I have to clean a space out, it's Christmas!!!! I've done that. I've also lost a tool I was using and hadn't even left the room.

It was there all along, your perception and it's state of matter/energy just weren't in sync.
