my misplaced kindle

[redbird]

I found my missing kindle--it had been in my daypack the whole time. I thought I'd checked thoroughly, but apparently not.

I put my hand on the kindle while looking for a black felt-tip pen, in order to address an envelope. (I found the pen a minute later, and the card is waiting to go out.)

Further proof that the old saw, "It's always in the last place you look," is false. Sometimes it's in a previous place you looked.

I'm glad you found it, though!

Hidden in plain sight as they say!

Daypacks have way too many hidden pockets and sleeves. I'm pretty sure it's where all my lost items are.

I once found avocados in my backpack pocket. Several days after going to the store. I'd rather find a kindle or a pen.

Yay!

I once found an iPad I'd been missing for two years. It had fallen out of my bag into my emergency supplies box in the back of the car. Clearly I don't update my emergency supplies often enough!
