I am an idiot

Last night, I went to Wally World to get supplies for what I was to bring to Lucina's Day. 

I drove there and back before 10:00pm.  I get up, cook, get items together, load the car and...No keys!!

Somewhere between the car and the house, I have lost my keys.   I can't find them anywhere.  I have tried everything, retracing steps, cleaning like mad, washing everything, putting everything in its place, (gasp) even suggestions for finding lost things,like turning a glass upside down and walking away for a bit. I have shoveled the snow NEXT to the driveway looking to see if I had dropped them there, I backed the car up to see if they slid underneath. I have asked the house wights, left a glass of Conamara whiskey as a offering and I still can't find the keys. Arrghh.

So, if you have any remedies for finding lost items, I would love to hear them!


Muchos Gracias!  Danke!

Sweetie! I'm so sorry about that. My advice is one of those day late, dollar short things. More keys. I have five or six car keys laid by for just such emergencies...well, that and my key has a tendency to break too.

Good luck finding the keys, though.

We had a whole bunch of car keys made...and they did a crap job and half of them don't work. Then the original broke. It isn't so much that one key, it is the rest of them I need for work...

THAT WAS FAST! THANKS!

I was talking to Spouse and saw a broken key on a key ring. I HAVE a broken key on MY key ring. I looked closer and voila, MY KEYS! I just lost the portable CPR mask that was attached to my key ring.

I did look about 20 times in that spot, but thank you I have found them!!

Yay for finding them! I was about to suggest Oreos or Girl Scout Cookies with something shiny under the glass as 'reward' if you got the keys back.

Whom ever gets the whiskey, that's for sure!
