I knew the tool chest drawer I kept it in and I didn't see it. Well one day she came in and I asked her about it to which she said she had not used it. I described it being a small rectangular mirror head on a stick and while I was busy doing something she quietly pulled every drawer of the chest and turned around and said "is this what you are looking for"? Well damn! It was right there in the drawer I said it should be and the mirror is round, not rectangular. Egg all over my face.
I can relate to your story Boog.. When I lose something like a tool in my garage or storage shed.. I usually find it after thourally searching about the 3rd or 4th try and just like you ,, I over look it ,,concentration of what it is that I am looking for is not working with me like it used too.
