Money was gone but everything else was still there. I don't know if I left it there or if it just found it's way there. I remember thinking that I had never been in that part of the library. <br /><br />Recently I lost my Visa card (not a huge limit on it but Bob freaks when I misplace stuff) and I didn't wait even a day to call it in. I found it the next day upstairs where I had ordered some books online. Here's where it get stupid. I got the new card and was sure I shredded the old card. The 'new' card won't work however and I'm too embarassed to call Visa and tell them I shredded the wrong card. Then I'm not sure I could make it through the security questions. Ugh.<br /><br />Glad you found your wallet and now it`s time to get packing!!<br /><br />CindyCindyShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18349459903336460467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-3715143290731313492010-04-17T17:10:04.900-04:002010-04-17T17:10:04.900-04:00Wendy: It's not just losing a wallet - it'...Wendy: It's not just losing a wallet - it's all the stuff connected to losing a wallet that causes meltdowns.

Doesn't really fit there does it?<br /><br />Mary: *g* didn't take too long for that feeling to go away. And then it was followed by a feeling of such blessed relief!!<br /><br />Nicole: Ron used to get so annoyed with me when that happened. But he didn't really have a leg to stand on since he 'misplaced' stuff just as much as I did. Only I usually managed to find his.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-8980090371739009952010-04-17T15:47:03.057-04:002010-04-17T15:47:03.057-04:00Something like this happened to me once, and I swe...Something like this happened to me once, and I swear it took 10 years off my life. I was at a work-related workshop, it was time to leave, I opened my purse to get my sunglasses out and whamo! No wallet! I was in a total state when one of the organizers told me to "think back." That's when I realized that my wallet was likely AT HOME, sitting next to our computer because I had ordered my nephew a belated birthday present online the previous evening.<br /><br />Sure enough, I got home and there sat my wallet, right by Ye Olde Computer Monitor.<br /><br />Duh, Wendy.<br /><br />Glad you found yours! And yippeee! For some reason I hadn't connected the dots that both you and Lisa were going to RT!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-72799781860561145282010-04-17T13:03:18.973-04:002010-04-17T13:03:18.973-04:00I have to admit I'll be glad when this post mo...I have to admit I'll be glad when this post moves down - that cat is seriously freaking me out!!

My husband an...OH my, you just told my life story. My husband and I argue all the time because I'm constantly losing important items. Cards, wallets, keys etc. Sometimes I will try to "secretly" look for something because i don't want him to realize I've lost it. My fav is when we are at a drive thru and I'm discreetly rummaging thru my purse, or under the car seat very nonchalantly...(inside I'm FREAKING). Sometimes he busts me.

Just think - less than 2 weeks now!!<br />I was explaining my thinking to the girls at work and they laughed at me - called it a Kristieism. But then one of them said she did the same thing when she was looking for bonds she'd misplaced. Much later in the stress filled day, I told her we had to get back the feeling we felt when we actually found what we thought was lost :-)<br /><br />Laurie: LOL!! That is one freaky looking cat isn't it? I'm glad it led you here *g*. It's what I would have felt on the inside - if I allowed myself to think of a lost wallet for longer than 3 minutes.<br /><br />Carolyn: As to replacing it - it's a toss up. I've never had anyone tell me they love my purse before so I'd lose out on that if I switch. On the other hand, it does get annoying hauling everything out of it when I'm searching for something.<br />And wow!! How freaky that they would find your wallet all those years later. And when I went over the 3 minute time I allowed myself to think about replacing everything, I kept thinking it couldn't have happened at a worse time!Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-89228162196710583502010-04-16T21:13:37.793-04:002010-04-16T21:13:37.793-04:00When I got home, I sort of looked for my wallet, b...When I got home, I sort of looked for my wallet, but not too hard. You see, if I looked everywhere and couldn't find it, I would freeze and panic, but if I didn't look too hard, I could tell myself it was somewhere where I hadn't looked.<br /><br />That's so true--what a brilliant thing to say. A really spot on observation. I do that too!<br /><br />BigGirl had her entire purse lifted in a club in San Jose about six weeks ago. What a pain in the neck that was!<br /><br />I can't wait to see you.

By a patient, no less. I think there was only $10.00 in it, but it was hell replacing the cards, especially the immigration card which had a nice dewy YOUNG picture of me on it!<br /><br />Years later they were working on the phone lines and took out a ceiling tile in the patient bathroom and ...... there was my wallet with all cards intact.<br /><br />Does this traumatic experience induce you to change your big purse ways? ;-)Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151587271439513617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-28646352721027013252010-04-16T19:51:57.367-04:002010-04-16T19:51:57.367-04:00Lea: ROTFL - yep it's a cat - a cat that has l...Lea: ROTFL - yep it's a cat - a cat that has lost it due to panic. That's somewhat what I might have looked like if I didn't find my wallet - except I'm not a cat. But I'm sure there would have been significant hair loss.<br /><br />Nath: I manage to lose my debit card every 3 or 4 months, but to lose EVERYTHING in my wallet - I didn't even want to think about all the red tape that would mean - and with Columbus coming up in (wait for it) just slightly over a week now - well - I didn't even want to consider how screwed I'd be.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-73415920442093723662010-04-16T19:44:54.775-04:002010-04-16T19:44:54.775-04:00I think it is a cat - with the mange...
