pens! ... one minute I have hundreds, then none, and then 100's again!
and lip balms ... I have at least one for every bag and coat pocket, plus for in the car ... how come I can never find one?0 -
Scissors.
I'm soooo glad to see others are the same as me. I thought I was on my own with that.0 -
I always loose umbrellas. Every time it rains I go to find one only to discover I have lost another or left it somewhere. I can usually take care of things, but not umbrellas. Or watches. Am always breaking watches!0

My wallet. I only ever keep it one of seven places and sometimes it's not in any of them.
Nail clippers... always showing up just after I've cut my nails (using garden shears or angle grinder).I don't like morning people. Or mornings. Or people.0 -
Not an item that can be replaced, but although I keep all my receipts I am always missing the one for the item that's broken while still under guarantee.
Meaning I generally have to pay to replace said item. Shortly after paying to replace it, I will then find the missing receipt. Happens every time.
Depends where you have bought things, bought OH some headphones from John Lewis, they found my purchase from my details/credit card and gave me a replacement set.0 -
Every bloody thing goes missing in my house, probably because I'm a lazy slob and don't do enough housework.Chin up, Titus out.0

Also sharpeners. Too often, actually.
Something I lose often would be my car key, I keep meaning to get a second one cut. It's loop bit is broken so won't attach to my keys, usually it's in my pocket and falls out I think. I once lost it and was over an hour late for work so I decided to walk, went outside and it was right next too my car...Dreadful.
Screwdrivers. Never around when I need one.
Forks. Never the teaspoons like most. I'm always buying new forks.0 -
Tweezers and nail scissors, then as soon as I buy a new pair the old ones reappear!Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0

Although I don't gave either problem, I'm starting to think this might be a good idea:

Hope is not a strategy...A child is for life, not just 18 years....Don't get me started on the NHS, because you won't win...I love chaz-ing!
