I feel like I am going crazy at the moment. I just don't know what's wrong with me.

Everything I touch at the moment seems to get lost. I am starting to feel jinxed.

I have lost the TV remote. My car keys (I have no spare). My bottle of painkillers/sleeping medication. And now I just went to take another antihistamine as I have lots of yucky sinus this morning and now I can't find them either. I only just had them on my bed this morning and took one a couple of hours ago.

My house is a riot at the moment because I am so stiff and in so much pain. I drop everything and can't pick it up. This is not helping me find things though.

The antihistamine should be on my bed...which also happens to be my office as I always have the phone, notebooks, reading books and various other essentials so I don't have to get up. This morning I had my water bottle and the whole box of medications (I mean like a tool box size

Tomorrow is another day...hang in there, kid, it'll get better. 

I promise!!
 
Hey Cords, one of those days hey!  Yes, go back to bed have a good rest, have a lovely cup of tea when you get up and slowly think and search, one thing at a time, don't stress as that will not help you, use some tongs to pick things up so that you don,t have to bend, and also when Nevie gets home you could write a list of the things you are looking for and challenge her to find them, make it fun and you'll feel better, praying for you, love Janie.XX Thanks to both of you.

And great ideas Janie. I will do exactly what you suggested.

I feel a tad better just getting it off my chest and having a good debrief.

It will come, if you let go and let the universe take care of it.

See what i mean, you have just found one item.
Maybe get you one of those "grabbers" that have a long handle and can pick up stuff off the floor??
I agree with Stephen, stop looking and it will come to you. lOL
 Sending good vibes your way.   Sorry your having such a rough row. Hang onto the boat and ride the wave...I promise less troubled waters soon. Thinking of you.Prayers and well wishes on their way to you. Let us know what tomorrow brings. Hang in there Sweetie! I, too, lose things all the time. My dear husband usually finds them, or they'll turn up in quite bizarre places. Sometimes it gets so strange around here with my things disappearing, that we just say the "spirits" are playing with us again. I swear the spirits of my dear brother and precious Mom, hang out here quite a bit. They seem to get playful just about the time I start to take things too seriously.
 
Honestly, though, Janie had some great ideas. Neve will think it's a wonderful new game.
 
I know it gets pretty frustrating sometimes. Just try to sit down if you can, and have some tea or some kind of little treat. I'll bet a few minutes later, locations of your items will begin to come to you. My thoughts and prayers are with you, as always.
 
Love, Nini
 Hope everything turns up v. soon esp. those car keys.
 
 
lorrie2008-11-21 19:50:29 And yes, I let go and I found one item, like Bodak said...my car keys!!! Thank goodness!!!

Wonderful idea and lovely kind thoughts from all of you. I am sure the rest will turn up eventually, they are all here I am sure of that.

Hugs to you all...

This disease can get so frustrating sometimes.
 I hope you found everything.....I think you have the wrong house though...are you by any chance living in my house.....I have lost my tramadol, am sure they were on top of the microwave last night. Also I bought my daughter a make up brush, it one of those huge things that remind me of a feather duster and its GONE!! How do things just go?? Gosh, Pinny...yep, I understand completely. It just feels crazy at the moment.

Unfortunately I have not found everything but the car keys are a huge relief.

My list is now: the TV remote, my bottle of medication, a strip of antihistamine, a 10 sided green die, my favourite pencil and my little book with all my phone numbers in. Wow, it's growing fabulous. Just what I need. I am really starting to feel like a lunatic here somehow. I am just trying to relax and let go but I am finding that really difficult right now as I am getting stressed with losing stuff as they are all things I need.

I hope you find the Tramadol and the feather duster make up brush, I know exactly the ones you mean.

I hope you find everything you are looking for Cordy. It seems to happen when you least expect it. I love the idea of getting Neve involved. She will enjoy a game with her mum. Maybe offer a reward for finding them, like a story read in your wonderful, pillow filled bed for each item she finds.

Feel better soon, it's been one heck of a year for you.
Hugs.
Deb
And for you too, Deb...it has been one heck of a year also.

I have already left the abusive marriage woman so PM me anytime. There will be lot's of pruning back in your life from it but life will rebalance and be better than ever...trust me on that. I know it seems far from it now but you stand your ground...and you won't regret it.

I can conclusively say that this year has been better than last year I'm with you Cordy!  I hope you find eveything. 
 
We have the issue of my son's puppy.  He steals stuff and hides it.  Thankfully he doesn't chew anything, but he likes carrying things all over the house.  Just finding my shoes each day is like a treasure hunt.  Currently I am missing my 0 inhaler.  I've checked all the obvious spots, so now I think I have to venture under the bed, but it's SCARY under there!!!
 
One of my Catholic friends taught me to pray to St. Anthony, who is the Patron Saint of Lost Things (or something like that).  There's actually a little rhyme I walk around the house saying:
 
St. Anthony, St. Anthony
Please Come 'Round,
Something's Been Lost,
And Can't Be Found. . .
 
I bet he would like a visit to Australia - give him a call!
Our darling Liz disappears things all the time. I mean seriously. say a 2 ft  rasp will NOT be there, no where to be found,  and next morning its on the kitchen table.
 
 right now she disapeared my heavy duty staple gun. the BRAND NEW heavy duty staple gun.
 
 We simply accept it. but at least once a week you hear someone yell.."LIZ!!!! Put it back!"
