    Me= couch cushions, side table outside bathroom, and my pill bag.

    Husband = porch (fell out of back pocket while getting bag of pellets). Fridgerator (he likes to eat out of the fridge), and in his truck console.

    How about you lol?

    LOL, if that was me, it would be because I was out there looking for my glasses, which happen to be hinged on the neck of my shirt. Then returned not knowing where either are :rofl: :lol:

    Never been found. Just about like most everything else my wife touches, stuff just magically disappears to never be seen again. Lawn chairs, snow shovels, bowls, spoons, pruners, sweatshirts, remotes, chargers, cords, etc…

    Haven't found it yet. The remote for the tv in the family room. Grands used to use it, until it came up missing and no one knows where it went. Been over a year, would have thought they would have found it by now. No I or the wife hid it.

    Found 1/2 of my remote for my truck in my dog's poop. The rest of it was scattered around the living room.

    Ex wife was like that. Then she'd get MAD if you didn't help find whatever it was immediately. Now the remote is right where i left it last. Easy peasy.

    I always wondered why they don't put a little speaker in the remote and have a button on the TV to "page" the remote? It's 2024 for crying out loud...

    One TV that has been stored since moving has a remote that is MIA. Probably just buy a roku unit for it that has the volume control included.
