Young lady there are some things that you need to learn about keys and socks Keys leave because they feel useless and unwanted. There are the lost objects of life, without meaning or purpose, key to dairies for people who had nothing to say, keys to music boxes from ex-lovers that now no oe wants to play, keys to wind up toys for chidren now grown and moved away, keys of unknown sources, origins,or purposes. They are the lonely ones that gather together in boxes,drawers, and cabinets. like secret cults they cling together without any real purpose.
Socks on the other hand are adventuerers. Boldly and bravely they sneak out of dryers, singly or in pairs, looking for a new life where they will not be trodden upon, stuffed in hot, cramped shoes, sharing limited space and air with smelly, sweaty feet, or when tied up in knots and used for dog toys when they have outived their usefulness." Not I" say they. They dream of being something with adventure and status, like argyle golf club covers, or patchwork place mats in Amish kitchens, or rag dolls for little children, or if absolutely necessary , rag rugs. So off they go to destiny.
Well there you have it kid, the story of wayward keys and socks. The mystery is solved.
Oh my Bill! This is too good! ha ha!! Yes, and those socks do not like the dryer! I always say "the dryer ate yet another sock!" and keys keys keys! mostly useless and the only ones found! poor keys!
Oh, how I will never forget this debacle nor your face when you found those keys...next time I will send you on the hunt as I am obviously not qualified for these missions 🙄
Mislaid keys ( my mum said they were never “lost” just mislaid) are the bane of my life!! It is mostly Geoff’s keys that go missing. Mine have a home in my handbag and 99% of the time they are there, where I left them! However when Geoff mislays his keys and always asks ME where they are, then the search is on !! Question 1 “: Where did you have them last? This never goes down well, usually met with the statement “ If I knew that, then I wouldn’t be asking you”
That's hilarious Hilary! "Mislaid keys" can definitely cause arguments! I need to make my purse my key's home! We have a key hook and they are typically hanging right there until they are not! When I first met John's older brother he wanted to tell me John's missing key stories, after John lost his keys in his brother's house!! John took me to meet him on a date and when we were going to leave... his keys were missing!! Another silly key story!
So nice to have such a different type of post with regards to such a frustrating subject-losing our keys. Yes, the issue of keys can make a perfectly nice day become one of panic in a second! I have a little OCD when I run into our little post office and I want to leave my keys in the ignition (car off) but I have to check the unlock button a couple of times first. The thought of locking my keys in the car and having to walk home....I will try that tip of being in the moment and "memorizing" where I place my keys next time :)
I thought it was funny to do a story about missing keys! It's so annoying! and the stories of are stories within stories! Like the time I took my three littles to the pumpkin patch at a local college and threw my keys in the same grocery bag my youngest was chucking small pumpkins in. By the time we were done and back to the car, this silly, tired mom had no keys. We searched the huge patch and well. Yeah. Another story! Oh I know that OCD with the keys, locks, etc. I am working on this key issue! ha ha!
We are on the eve of heading home and hopefully by the weekend we will be settled back in! Then the youngest will visit! Surprise! So I have you on my radar and will be writing you back soon via email! love, deb ox
