Pic of the day;
I remember hiding Easter Eggs in my youth and
forgetting where I hid them. At times
one or two weren’t found and we found them later in the Summer. Now in my second childhood or the winter of
my life, I am starting to hide things from myself.
I
know one should not do this, but for many years
when we lived close on finances, I would put a dollar-bill behind a framed picture,
you know, for a ‘rainy day’.
A friend’s hubby died and she found MUCH money
in his wallet, and he had told her he was nearly broke. Yes, someone will find
a bill or two hid in my wallet also! Do you do that?
Hiding
money. Sure, most times we
retrieve what we have ‘put back’, but sometimes we don’t! Example I have probably mentioned it here
before, but my sister (and we too) liked thrift stores. Once in a small town in
Florida she bought a small cushion for her couch. She bought it because it had a
zip on cover she could wash. When she
got home and removed the cover she found a $100 bill. Some old person had hidden it and the cushion was discarded at their death.
That makes one wonder how much money is hidden
awaiting the lucky finder.
I am writing this because lately I have hidden
things from my self, I still am looking for a ‘door stop’ I ordered for this coach and did not have time to install it
when it came in, so I put it aside until later.
LATER came and I cannot remember where in this crazy coach I put it.
I misplaced something VERY IMPORTANT a couple days
ago and looked thru every drawer to no avail.
Finally, I asked Sherry, and she said I had told her where I had put it,
and I had. So at least I found the important stuff, now to find that silly door
stop!
Nite

PS
Thanks for all the visits.
LOL
PS2: I found the door stop. In
a drawer just a few inches from the door where I will install it. I kept looking for
the little box it came in. I forgot that I had taken it out of the box therefore
it was overlooked. It still in the plastic wrapper it came sealed in. ;-)
Tomorrow, sisters (maybe) LOL

Oooh, now that's interesting about hiding $ behind a painting or in a chair cushion. I was just telling Susan (Contemplative Cat) how we used to laugh at my grandmother. She'd put something away in a 'safe place' then forgot where that was. Today, it's not so funny anymore.
I've been known to put things in a 'safe place' and then forgot where that place was! :)
I put things in great places too - and then I can't remember. I work too fast sometimes. So, you are very normal - good thing you told Sherry - then someone will remember!
