Default Today's Peeve Of The Day, Friday 30th September.

Good morning peevers.

Come off it- it can't be the last day of September?

As it is unseasonally warm I went to find a particular piece of clothing and it took ages to find it.

Have you had the situation where there's something you don't use very often but when you want it you can't find it?

Today's peeve;

Trying to find something you don't use very often.

A matched pair of gloves is hard for me to find, since I only have to wear them a half dozen times in the winter. I need to get those little suspender clips that little kids use to attach them to their coat sleeves! LoL!

If the item I can't find is cheap enough.....I have been known to just say "to hell with it" and go buy another one.

Last time it was the "magnet hangers" I use to hang my X-mas wreaths on the front door.....of course......I accidently found the oringinal set when I was looking for something else about 6 weeks later. {sigh}

I don't have the strength or energy to look for something more than once any more. Fine and Dandy! One of these days, when moving, I'll have a garage sale and sell all the extra's.

But wait! Who would be interested in buying 2 "lost" titles to one of my cars, long after I've sold it?

Annoying...
I usually am well organised, but sometimes that's not enough!

I'm famous for throwing stuff out during one of my de-cluttering adventures and then wishing later I had kept it.
