If you were my car keys.. where would you be?

[Moggymorn]

Just that, really

Silly suggestion but happened to me, keys fell into map pocket of the car when I was getting out with shopping, handbag, water bottle, the whole shibbag and because my DH was holding the front door open for me it never occurred to me that both the car was unlocked and I'd forgotten the keys.

I think that they are next to the fruit bowl.

Did you find them OP?

Mine are always on the stairs. Even when I look ther and can't find them that's where they eventually turn up

Time to call in the big guns.
Pray to St Anthony, patron saint of lost things.
Alternatively they have been nicked by the fairies. They like shiny things. Ask them politely to return them.
What my dear old mum used to do.

Garden, drive, dropped under the car?

Ours are usually in one of the wash baskets or top of the fridge.

Did you have shopping bags with you when you last used the car? Could be inside one?

Apron pocket?

In the lock on the outside of the front door

Bread bin
Shoe rack
Under the bed covers
Down the back of the sofa

What's your usual routine when you come in? Can you 'replay' what you did yesterday on getting home?

Last time I lost mine I'd put it on the stairs next to the kids to put their shoes on. It was hidden under coats hanging on the stairpost.

Paper recycling. My 14 month old puts everything in there.

Could your OH have them?
When did you last have them?
Are your front door keys on the same ring? If they are and you used them to get in the house they will obviously be in the house. If not are they still in the car or dropped outside?

Unfortunately baby brain adds an extra dimension to where they could be. They could be absolutely anywhere.

In the fridge, oven, airing cupboard, under the doormat, in with your cleaning stuff, in the dishwasher, put safely away in your knicker drawer.

Will probably magically appeared in the 1st place you looked.

Goodness. I hope you have found them. You can't miss work for a 2nd day tomorrow.

Did you find them?

Found mine behind the kick boards on the bottom of the cupboards in the kitchen twelve months after I’d given up hope.

Fridge, down side of sofa, microwave, cupboard you keep your tea bags in, washing machine, fallen in a shoe? Still in car? That's me out of ideas. Good luck

Around the stairs, if not on them.

Hung on the Christmas tree.

Thanks to my then 4 year old DS.

Hope you find them OP.

We still haven't found them! I don't work Fridays thankfully, but I'm completely and utterly baffled where they've gone. I've locked the car so they definitely aren't in it and they aren't on the drive so they must be in the house.. but where?!

Some brilliant suggestions though, made me laugh and I even went and checked all of them that I have but no luck...

Dressing gown pocket I lost mine for hours and forgot I'd put them in there the night before when I was wearing it haha x

Dressing gown pockets (when it's hung on the back of the bedroom foor) are my downfall. I've finally learnt this, but it's taken me twenty years!

Maybe pockets of everything in wardrobe in case they dropped from your clothing. Do you have a lining in your coat in case there is a hole in pocket somewhere?

Do you have scarves/clothes near the door or in wardrobe where they could have snagged - wool for instance or sparkly fabric.

Have you had any visitors who might have accidentally picked them up and taken them or moved them somewhere?

Good luck with the search.
