    Normally the things I loose turn out to be in my pockets, on my head or tucked in above my ear.......and spend hours looking for them ,,,,well it feels like hours......

    If anything I lost eneded up on my head, it would stick out like dogs........
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    I used to buy a roll of thread tape along withn a Nitto fitting every time I got a new pneumatic tool, or did some plumbing because I could never find any when it was needed. I had a big tidy up a few years ago and started building shelving and storage. I found about 30 rolls of thread tape and am still working my way through it all. I won't need to buy any for another year or two.

    Send me your excess weight.
    No matter what, I cant put on weight.
    I can eat Greasy Joes for ever, and not put on one ounce!!
    I can drink with the best of them, and not put on one ounce!!

    I can, and do, work out laying bricks, and I dont loose any weight.
    Ive been this way for ever, maybe I should donate me self to science??

    I THOUGHT I solved the lost item problem, I got a shoe box and marked it "A SAFE PLACE" with a view of putting valuable stuff there so I would know where it was in the future..... BUT now I can not find the box
    I try and do new things twice.. the first time to see if I can do it.. the second time to see if I like it

    Smile I lost my sanity a long time ago . . .

    AL, you lucky so and so, you can have my excess weight too. Once I was a skinny little twig, but started working in an office 16 years ago, eating to much, drinking to much and minimal exercise, I am now the size of a Boab . . .

    I find things either immediately or several hours later after throwing a tanty, causing the dogs to run and hide and me to get on the idiot box and kill monsters till I calm down. . . enough to launch a search and destroy mission

    Talking Do you find the things you lose?

    Yes,
    Several months later after the dog has jumped onto one of the workbenches .
    She hides the toll in the yard after she has chewed a non slip finish into the handle. By the time I find it I have usully purchased .
    She will not touch cheap tools only going for quality gear.

    Workshop guard dog available
    going cheap

    I have a mate in Townsville like that. He has type 1 diabetes though.
    My guess is that, (not knowing anything about diabetes) his body uses the fat before the sugar?

    Maybe you're developing youth onset diabetes?:confused:
