More Bad Karma

Are you into modest superstition? Take a glass, turn it upside down, and stop looking! Within a short time, you will be drawn to where you left it! Let me know if this works for you!! (smiles)

NO - you have to stand in the middle of the room and announce, quite loudly, "I've looked everywhere but II can't find my sterling notes" - preferably to someone in the room (at a pinch, someone on the phone will do.)
Within seconds, you hand will be on top of them, proving you are an idiot. (Well, it always seems to work for me - and my friends tell siimilar stories.)

But i thought you were coming to England in September. Have your plans changed?

have you found it yet? how much was it worth.... hope it turns up before you leave, you lucky person.... and i know how you feel. I would misplace my head if it wasn't screwed on.

Once I lost may passport. Had it out ready to travel - couldn't find it anywhere.
the day before departure, I got so mad at myself I completely lost it and started throwing stuff around. Even picked up the 6 X 8 Persian carpet and hurled it across the room - and there was my passport, on the floor, under where the rug had been.
Not saying you should start throwing the furniture round, but............

(((((((((((( whatsoff ))))))))))))

Poo happens sometimes.

I am becoming gentrified in the use of the English language! lol

LOL! Seems it's been a combination of everything everyone advised and/or did themselves.

I was dog-sitting my neighbour's little toy Malti-poo yesterday, but she doesn't like to be away from her home so she just sat in the hall (I have an L-shaped hallway), something she always does when she wants to leave. But instead of staring at the entrance door as she does, she was staring intently at the store room door to the right of the entrance. I took her downstairs then decided to check out the store room to see if there was something in there that had caught her attention, like mice or something. As soon as I opened the door I had an epiphany and checked the lightweight carry-on daypack I had originally intended to take but switched to another slightly heavier but larger one. And lo, there was my cash, in the stored daypack. As I rarely, and I do mean rarely, use that particular daypack the money would have probably stayed there until it rotted away. The pup must have ESP; I, obviously, am brain-dead.

Spent the next few hours cleaning up the mess I had made by throwing stuff out of drawers, unpacking both daypack and suitcase, and now I'm all set except for a few last minute bits and pieces. And I have not really over-packed this time - wonders will never cease! Taking the middle sized case and the day-pack because I need that to hold the meds and two cameras.

Yay!

I hope you rewarded her in an appropriate manner. :>))

It's been said many times before - "dog (even if not yours) is man's best friend".
Enjoy your trip.
