I am losing my mind

Saturday I went to the grocery store to pick up a few items for a birthday dinner in honor of Mom Barlow who passed away this year. I got my few items and left quickly. I got a call Sunday that I had left my wallet in the cart and someone had turned it in (thank goodness for honest people the week before Christmas). So, I did not tell Tracy because he gets so mad that I don't carry a purse anyway because I do stupid things like that................So.............today I went back that grocery store to get my wallet and pick up a few more things to make neighbor gifts. I got my things quickly and left. I went to my mom's made the popcorn and then on the way home Anna and I wanted to stop and get a drink and I could not find my wallet in the car............yes.........you guessed it left it at the same grocery store again when I went to pick it up. So........I sheepishly went into the store knowing full well I was going to have to ask the same customer service girl that I left my wallet again praying that it was there and thankfully it was a new girl and YES IT WAS THERE!!! How could I be so lucky. I did tell Tracy and he thinks his wife is losing her mind.....and he lectured me about a purse :) So.. since he has bought me like 6 purses over the past 10 years I decided I better start using them. I won't always be so lucky.

So I was at Ben Franklin last Thursday and left my wallet. I really could not find the thing and was totally stressed. Had no idea it was at the BF. So, I went there Friday to meet my sister-in-law for a present. And told her i needed her to buy it because I had lost my wallet. And it was there, at the BF, where I was, with Natalie, doing a frame! what the hell is wrong with us?!

Kristen, that is so funny because last year earlier in the year I went through a wallet losing phase also. I, however, DID have a purse and I STILL lost my wallet in 2 or 3 stores.
It is immensely frightening but also gratifying when people call you and tell you that you left your wallet AND when you pick it up and everything is still inside.
