I did misplace 2 pv's last night that I was vaping while watching SNL. Both of their batts went dead at almost the same time and so I thought I remembered putting them in my pocket. A little while later, I turned off tv and went back to computer to check on all those tabs I have open (that's another thread - oops - s t a y on t o p i c). No pv's in pocket. Later I found them laying the kitchen table where I then remembered laying them while I fed the cats and re-filled my coffee. 8-o
I'm thinking that there is not someone or thing that takes our stuff and moves it so we can't find it and then puts it back at the right moment so we believe it has been there all along and we just didn't see it.
I'm thinking there might be something in our heads that arranges our eyesight so we don't see what we are looking for even though it may be right in front of us.
This "something" certainly must have a great sense of humor and nothing else to do but watch all of us (and we are many) doing these things day after day.
After a lot more years than I care to own up to right at this moment, I have looked for my keys, coffee cup, shades, and even things I don't remember but know I was looking for a minute ago.
My keys are now on 2 caribiners. One has only my car key and is clipped to my bag immediately upon exiting the car.
The other one is bigger and has all other keys on it for work, home, po box and those little plastic mini cards we carry in Indiana to give us discounts at different grocery stores and gas stations. It is also clipped on my bag.
This solution has worked 95% of the time because even if I should lay them down, they are very visible...most of the time, hence the only 95% rating.
I would like to hear from others about techniques that have somehow helped you in the jungle of misplaced focus. (yet another thing that is missing? lol)
