Everytime I put something where I know I will be able to find it, it takes me FOREVER to find it. Someone want to come and help me find my rulers?



You like to live dangerously.... assuming we would find the rulers for you and leave your stash intact! ;-)

check the freezer, with your last project, the pantry, and wherever you store cleaning supplies...oh, and if you have a junk drawer, check there as well. Trust me on this, I know from experience!

It's under a pile of fabric on the table.

Anita,

Sorry no fabric on table.

Are they in the quilting tote bag?

Last time I "misplaced" a ruler it had migrated to the shed to be used to mark timber!

Love that Cheryl, and can totally relate, mind you I 'stand over'( well as much as I can lol) DH and grab it as soon as he is finished with it. The same with the rotary cutter he used to trim a laminated poster with. I had been using the blade to trim paper pieced blocks so I decided it was 'good enough' for him. After he finished using it I came inside and changed the blade ready for me.

Yes, trouble with rulers is that they are transparent!

*So* very hard to find. Good luck. (I 'lost' a book - only to find it neatly underneath another one - completely invisible). If you were Kathyl, it would be under the cutting mat >g< . In message , GrammyKathy writes

Will never forget the shock I felt when my builder called in for a visit one day and grabbed my beautiful gold duckbill applique scissors to chop off a broken thumbnail!!! I was speechless.

But he would probably be equally appalled to see what I did with the belt sander I borrowed from him a few weeks later rofl

LOL - and I never thought the medicare forms would find their way into the refrigerator either, especially when I was last filling them out on my desk in the study.

Is it made out of wood and did you ask your doggie..............?

Pat! You get over here and clean off my monitor! I had coffee in my mouth as I was innocently reading through your post. Boy, did you catch me off guard! But thanks ever so much for the reminder! KJ

That's where mine usually are--or on the daybed under a pile of fabric, books,etc.

My 21" is missing, too. Buggrit! The 24" is so clumsy for ikkle diddy things...

I did that with the cookbook I wanted last night. We nearly didn't have dinner!
