Ain't it the truth, @Carol Dee !?
I have lived in my home for many years. DW has been here through every one of them. Apparently, I'm someone who hates to throw things away. DW is dedicated to shopping.
What a combination! Fortunately, she hasn't been interested in shopping yet at stores that sell flooring. I have mentioned my dissatisfaction with our floors several times but she hasn't taken the bait. It occurred to me the other day what kind of an effort it would take to clear the rooms with carpeting so as to have the installers come in for a day.
! It would take us a couple hours in each room to gather the loose material to box up even before the furniture is moved! Then, where would those boxes and that furniture go!
Anyway. On a normal day, if it is the same tool or piece of paper or whatever that I have carried from its traditional location, I'm usually good at returning it to the exact place it was before. Something new generates an internal debate!
How much is it similar to everything else in that drawer? Will it be easy to find, next time? That 2nd question can be a booby trap and, I'm the booby!
Go ahead and be creative -- I will never think of that location next week.
