Unlikely Places

Over the years, I have become quite forgetful. Prime example: Sometimes, I'll get up and walk into a room and, once there, I'll have no recollection of why I left the comfort of my cozy couch. It's only when I walk back to said couch that I remember why I got up in the first place.
That happens to most people I know. We've discussed it at length. So, I don't feel so bad about that.
I am concerned, however, that I'll use something or wear something and then I can't find it afterwards. But it's more than that...I can't even remember when I used it or wore it last to try to refresh my memory on it's whereabouts.
In recent weeks, I misplaced my two Alex & Ani bangle bracelets. I've been trying to remember when I wore them last. What event did I go to? Did I wear them to work?

I've checked all of my purses and work bags, in piles of mail and "junk" that I need to put away, and in the most random places in my condo with no luck.
This morning, I woke up and began straightening up my abode...my first Spring Cleaning step. I collected all of the earrings and random jewels that I've worn and put down in different places over the course of the week. Earrings on the kitchen table, on the coffee table, on the bathroom vanity, on the desk in the office. I brought them to my bedroom and opened up my jewelry box.
Holy crap! There the bracelets are! Where they should be? That's so unlike me.
How bad is it that my jewelry box isn't even in the top ten places I looked for these MIA bangles? Sometimes I surprise myself.
