...not only am I stupider than dumb, but apparently, I'm also blind as a bat. Here's the story. So, this morning, I was getting a bunch of toner cartridges out of my car (yes, I'm in charge of the recycling program at William's school), and I lost my keys in the process. I thought maybe they were in the car, so I took EVERYTHING out of the car to look for them, twice. Then I thought, oh no, what if I accidentally put them in my recycling bin when I threw the empty boxes away and the recycling guy already emptied our bin. I checked in every room in our house. Maddie and I looked in my diaper bag, my primary bag and my purse about 5 times. Everytime I went in the front room, she had all of my bags emptied out. I couldn't find them anywhere. I even thought maybe I accidently put them in William's backpack. Needless to say, I was stuck at home all day. (A big thanks to Michelle for picking William up at school, and no the keys were not in his backpack). I did actually get all of my laundry done and even put away, and everything else done on my to do list because I couldn't leave my house BECAUSE I STILL COULDN'T FIND MY KEYS. I really wanted to leave my house today and go to April's because she has a Victoria Secret bra for me that she said I could have if it fit, and I was totally looking forward to maybe getting a new bra today.
Anyway, back to the blind as a bat part...When Merrill finally got home tonight. I asked him to check in the car again. He started in the front room first. He looked behind the curtains and then put his hand in my diaper bag and pulled out my keys. I swear they were not there before. It took him all of 15 seconds to find the keys. When I coudn't find them all day. And, trust me when I tell you that I looked ALL DAY! I could not believe it. I wanted to be really mad, but I was just thrilled and relieved that I have my keys back and that they aren't at the recycling center. Thanks babe, you're the best!

I love that I'm not the only one who does this. Welcome to the "I swear I'm not crazy" club. A key story lets us waive the cost of entry, but you'll have to pay double for the laundry being put away, sorry. You win some, you lose some...
i do that sort of stuff all the time. your MR is better at it though...he has a carefully honed ability to find small objects such as keys, golf balls, etc.
Good thing...I really like people that are stupider than dumb! It makes me feel soooo smart! Come over anytime. The bra is still here and still yours...at this point...regardless if it fits!
And that is why I have two sets of keys on hand. I can so relate. So glad you didn't recycle them ;-)
Lisa-Lou,
I know you were praying to find the keys so that is why Merrill was able to find the keys so quickly.
I'm glad that you were so productive in your work for the day. You have to feel good that your wash is finished and put away. We need to give Merrill a huge hug about finding the keys!!! He's the best!
Can't wait to see you and precious Jackson next week...we are going to have a BALL!!
Love and hugs,
Mom
funny it was merrill that found the keys when he can't find a remote sitting on a pillow next to him. nothing like being stranded in the house to force you to be productive!
