what's bothering me

lately my house seems to be swallowing things. i have lost so many items the last few weeks i feel i am going crazy. am i really that disorganized?

currently lost: i bought two plaques for the wall. i wanted to hang them with ribbon. bought ribbon and now i can only find one plaque. what! i remember thinking i didn't want them to scratch so rather than placing them on top of one another so i thought i just put them on separate shelves. now i only have one. sewing thread i just bought, can't find it. a pair of mimi's shoes. there's more i'm sure of it. i can't remember what they are. some things have been found.

recently found after two weeks, my car keys. i lost the camera cords for a time. wyatt found those. this moring i prepare a meal to go into the crock-pot. i go to get the pot out and it's gone! not in the cupboard, not in the pantry. how do you loose a crock-pot? i had to call wyatt on this one. as he laughed, he said "i knew i should have asked you". "you were in the shower this morning and i thought you wouldn't miss it". "as i drove off down the street i thought, watch this be the one day she uses it". so the crock-pot wasn't my fault. it just added to the feeling that everything is getting lost.

also bugging me is children's clothes that should fit but don't. 4T pants that are too short. 2T skirt that is way too big even with a belt. and 2T pants that fit in length but are too short from the inseam to the waist. i didn't realize that 2T came in hip huggers.

and finally, school picture people that can obviously see that big piece of hair sticking out on the side and do nothing about it. nice.

I have that problem with losing things, but I know the source: Jaxon. And I hear ya on the clothing not fitting. Madi is a petite little girl, but for some reason she can't wear her 3 T pants around the waist and her 4T pants are super big!
