Too many projects, now where did I put that...

Absolutely! Then when you go to put the new one away in The Logical Place you’ll find the lost one. (And four others).

This is exactly my motto. Also to buy things like Dewalt drills and have like 10 batteries and chargers that work with everything.
 
I'm a gardener too, so sometimes my tools go out with the leaves and never come back!
Or else they drop somewhere in the yard and get so rusty they're unusable. I just pray I don't run over them with the lawnmower.
 
Yup ^^^, me too!!

It's the "reverse-illusion" that gets me.

Let me explain, an "illusion" is when you see something that's not there, the "reverse-illusion" is when you know damn well something is there, but you just can't see it!

For example, I just put that small screwdriver down on my desk by my left hand (I'm a southpaw). 30 seconds later I go to pick it up and it's not there! Look in another 30 seconds and the ruddy thing is back!!

Now tell me that's never happened to you!
 
I don't lose or misplace tools, I know exactly they are... The car ate them:unsure:

Prett sure I misplaced as many tools, bits, and chargers today as screws I screwed.
And now my tool pile looks like the screw pile but in the corner so I can resume again after work 🤣

Not to mention the countless times I went back and forth between the equipment shelter and the truck looking for that wrench or screwdriver I stuck in my pocket 20 minutes ago so I wouldn’t misplace it!
 
Harbor Freight is way too close to my house. When they put the folding utilities on sale, you should always buy two or three, one of each color and latch design. Oh and an extra box of blades to go with the 5 you can't find. Don't ever buy the expensive ones, they seem to have faster legs to flee with.

I'm notorious for spinning in circles trying to find my pen...

Taking the pen from behind my ear and scratching my head...

Putting the pen back behind my ear...

Where the HELL did I put that pen??!!
