@Shop-et-al. My husband has always been clueless about what things we have and where they are except when it comes to his "electronics". That too, I have to sort and organize so he doesn't paces back and forth like a raving lunatic when he is missing some cables or some piece of electronic junk. He turns the whole house upside down until I can pinpoint where things are. He refuses to be organised and hates the labeling I do on boxes.
I once dropped my very expensive ring coz I had taken it out and put it in my purse. I was getting my keys out to open the door outside and maybe it fell out. Next morning, I am looking for the ring frantically and I put 2 and 2 together. So, I retrace my steps right from my house to Kindercare where I used to drop my daughter. I had made up my mind that I won't tell my husband if I don't find it. He would never notice it was gone. Luckily, I found it right in the middle of the road behind a parked car, some 18 hours later. Gosh, it was like a miracle.
