It Was Only A Set Of Keys But…
Author: siggyIt was only a set of keys, including my car keys. I could not remember where I put them down. I was pretty sure they were in the house. I looked high and low for several hours and could not find them.
I was sure I must have left them in a spot I normally do not keep them. I probably had them in my hands and dropped them somewhere I normally wouldn’t. I looked upstairs and downstairs, even outside. No luck.
It was a small thing but it was driving me a little crazy. The worst possible scenario was I would have to replace them. My wife had duplicate keys. I was sure I would come across them when I stopped looking for them. I just could not understand how I could misplace them.
PS I finally gave up. My wife prayed and started to help me look. She first looked in the car. I had told her that I’d taken out the trash, so she checked there, and spotted them in the bottom of one garbage can. Thank God: the trash was being picked up tomorrow. I was relieved. It is funny how a small thing like misplacing your keys can throw for a loop and cause you to become disheveled and completely disturb your day.
