Look on your head for goodness sake.

I've been missing a pair of glasses for days and no, they are not on my head. I'm afraid I may have somehow left them in a shop though why I would remove them there I can't figure. They may be in my car which has been in for repair for a week...but then again, I was going shopping after I dropped the car off so that's not feasible. The only other place they might be is under my bed. I may have knocked them off the nightstand while I slept. I must get the broom handle out and see if that's where they are. Luckily, I have several pair for just this sort of emergency...oh, they all have coloured rims so they are a fashion statement too. Plus, I can't see a thing (up close, clearly) without them.

Hi Thea! Elic always laughs at me. She hears me pawing around in drawers, poking into cabinets or closets, all the while grumping because I can't find whatever I'm looking for, & just as I holler "Where the heck did I put my oh HERE it is!" She says I lose more "Oh Here It Ises" than anything else. At least I can't blame that on Geezerhood; I've been misplacing things in plain sight all my life! Maggiepie WHERE'S THE REAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE?

My keys are my big one ! Just as you I am frantically looking to find them in my hands. Maybe there is something to be said for slowing down and smelling the roses.

i've done that with my sunglasses.had them on my head and didn't realize it. hair buffer,i guess. and of course nobody told me til they got done laughing..

I’ve done the glasses are on your head thing several times! A couple of months ago my daughter and I went out and half way to our destination I asked her to check if my cell phone was in my bag and she said it wasn’t so much to her dismay, I turned around and went back home to retrieve it because I knew I would be needing it later in the day. When we arrived home, I could not find the phone any where so I decided to ring the number and...You guessed it, the ringing came from my bag!

it does happen sometimes that the thing i need urgently gets mysteriously misplaced and when the related work is over i find it right in front of my eyes....(so..it seems to be a common phenomenon...). another thing that happens is related to junk, i seem to find a need for it after i have thrown it away..

I am a firm believer in "A place for everything and everything in its place" so I don't often lose something unless hubby has had it out and put it back in the wrong place. However, at times my office is a maze of papers because I am working on a number of projects at a time. Of course, I always have at least two electric fans working. Now, fans and papers do not mix, so I have a weight on each pile of papers. Quite often I will slip a piece of paper half under a pile to keep it from flying. Can you believe how difficult it can be sometimes to find ONE piece of paper among a number of piles of paper? (I've never yet found one on my head, but I'll remember to look next time. On second thoughts, one fan is directed straight at my face, so paper wouldn't stay put on my head) Of course, where I usually end up finding the important lost piece of paper is on my paper stand (anchored there with a bulldog) but covered with another paper/book I am using. I must remember to check there first next time!

That's too funny! I was on my way to work one day and thought I forgot my phone. It wasn't in my pockets, in my bag, wasn't on the other seat, in the cubby hole in the car.....I usually wouldn't put it anywhere else. I had a few minutes, I could turn around and go back home to get it and decided that's what I was going to do. I turned around, jumped out of the car and here I was sitting on it!! I'm glad I didn't have anyone with me or I'd have been soooo embarrassed!!

I have done this so many times with my glasses. I will be looking all over for them and have either found them hanging in my blouse or on a table where they blend in with the color of the table. I always say I need glasses to find my glasses.

LOL I often suffer from 'cantfinditus'. My kids are sufferers too, they stare into the cupboard looking for something without finding it and then I walk straight up and grab it out! When I used to work on cars for a living, my tools would always end up spread all over the place around me and quite often I would forget what I had out. Then I would be looking for something in my toolbox later and get angry because I thought that someone had borrowed it without asking! Although this did happen from time to time, mostly, the tool was in or under a car where I had left it.

Hi Thea, This just happened to me last week. i've been looking for my USB. i am suppose to check my presentation and have it printed. the document is in my USB. i am about to feel so bad when i finally see my USB when i hold the lace on my neck--gosh i put on the USB around my neck.

It is very funny to see others looking for something, particularly something that is on their head... I remember my OB was looking for her stethoscope where infact it was already hanging on her neck... Well that happened to me too, I was looking for my pen... I was really busy that time and I was holding this and that for my deadlines... then while reading the document I putted the pen between my ear head... Then when I was about to write something, I could not found it anymore... searched my desk and floor... I was really beginning to be irritated then I realized that it was on my ear....

Hi Thea, I am right with you with the misplacing of glasses while they are on top of my head. I sometimes wear contacts also, so think of this, because I am so used to having glasses on I will "look" for them for a moment before my brain kicks into gear and realize I have contacts in or I will push my imaginary glasses that are not on my face "up" (when they imaginary slide down my nose) and find nothing on my face. It is habit and so annoys me. I also wear a hearing aid, the real small ones that fit into the ear canal. Well, that is a doozy, because it has become so much a part of my ear that I don't "feel" it anymore. At night I am to take it out, unfortunately sometimes I will fall asleep with it in and in the morning I will look in the case and not see it there, panic and search the bed only to realize it is still in my ear. I have had the reverse. I need to take it out before showering and have thought that I did only to get in the shower and touch my ear to realize, "crapola, its still in my ear" dry my hands, pray I haven't drowned my only way to hear, and take it out hoping I don't drop it in the shower and toss it gently away from the tub in hopes it will stay dry. All things said, it is habit and getting so used to having these things become a part of me that makes me crazy thinking I have misplaced them. I completely fit the bill of "if my head wasn't attached to my shoulders, I'd misplace it" I guess I'll start really worrying if I start looking for my head one day thinking it wasn't there.

Hi thea..I have been guilty of looking for my glasses, only to find them on my head. But most recently it was my scissors. Every year when I wrap presents I end up losing my scissors and every year I find them under the gift wrap. It continues to amaze me how I can lose things without moving from the spot I am using them in. I use to lose my tape the same way, until hubby bought me one of those nifty ones you wear on your hand.

I am always misplacing my car keys. I set them down and forget where that was. Then when I need the keys, I can't remember where I set them down at. I try real hard to always put them in one place. So that is the first place I look. If they are not there, I have to search for them which could take a few minutes. The strangest place I have found them was in the refrigerator once. hehehe

Hiya Thea. Not glasses, I don't.. but I can lose my sunglasses. Would misplace them on places that I really can't find and that's a real bummer. I love my shades so much. And apart from shades, I also tend to misplace things like wallet, certain transport cards and sometimes even my ID. But they are all lying at home, just that I've forgotten to take them with me. Oh, bummer! LOL..

I have looked for my glasses that were atop my head, also a pencil behind my ear, and one time, though this is a little different, I actually almost wore a head towel to school! I, luckily remembered it was on my head before we left, and I had a hairbrush as I was apt to take one to school with me, so I was spared the embarrassment of going to my first class with a towel atop my head because for sure no one would let me know until it was too late! lol!

every day in my life i would search for many things?right starting from the day morning we start to do many things and that require many things so we search for that things.that is the human thing we keep things some where and try to search the things somewhere else.

hahahaha sounds like an episode of three's company I wish you filmed this and put it on you tube.. I could use a laugh like that. But I normally do that with keys. I'll turn the house upside down looking for the keys and turns out they in my pocket

The last one I misplaced was the bangle. Luckily I got it after a few days, in a distorted shape from beneath the sofa. Atleast I got it!! I usually keep things in the place where it should be but at times when I am preoccupied with other things I totally mess up with everything possible. It is usually important papers and bills and I misplace thema t the 11th hour. The thing is I keep it SAFELY at the most unexpected but on your face place bu tat the time , I just cant find it!!! It so happen that I search for 1 hour only to find it right in front of me...may be they go into disguise during my search...
