As You all know I am missing my sweet Ipod Nano. I have been too busy taking care of Mom to really look for it so I have called in the big guns...yep Sherlock Holmes
source
"Hello My Dear! Long time no see! In fact the last time I was here in the states I was helping you find your engagement ring."
"Why Yes, Thank you for coming over Mr Holmes."
"My pleasure I'm always in the mood for a good mystery. By the way have you lost weight?"
"Why yes, so nice of you to notice." I blush.
"Now, Joanne you say you lost your Nano."
"Yes , Mr Holmes. I lost it right before my trip".
"Hmmmm, I see...now please you don't have to address me so formally... I have helped you many times remember?" I nod in agreement.
"Why there was the case of the missing bracelet on your wedding day."
source
I nod at the memory
"Then there was the engagement ring disappearance of 1996.
source
I nod some more
"Oh and remember the car registration that went missing in 2004?"
source
yep
"Eye glasses of 2007?"
source
And the repeat of the missing engagement ring fiasco of 2009
source
I yawn "Ok Sherl, I think all my blogger buddies have a nice clear picture now"
"Alright then, lets get started." He puffs away on his stinky pipe.
"Oh sorry but there's no smoking in my house."
"This is part of my shtick, I can't let it go."
"Try this instead."
source
"I guess It'll have to do. So now then lets retrace your steps that day. This will often trigger the memory of where the lost item could be."
"How far back should I go?"
"Let's say starting first thing that morning" He blows bubbles and pops them
source
"Ok, First I did the laundry.
made breakfast for family
cleaned dishes ( dishwasher was not working)
made sure that all toiletries were packed
I packed all of our dog's foods and treats,
I ironed and then packed the kid's clothes.
I cleaned the bathroom
dusted everything vacuumed the floors
mopped
then mopped again after Hubby walked in with his dirty shoes
Watered the house plants
packed snacks for the road
gave the dog a bath before we left
phew.... there!"
source
"That is an amazing amount of work, but I meant just that morning, not 24 hours before."
"What? no that's just the first hour...in hour two I......
Man works from sun to sun but woman's work is never done...because no one wants to pick up after their darn selves! <--- I know but that's how it should read!
come back next week for the second part of "The tale of the missing Nano"! yep that's right ....I still haven't found it.
