and tell me something random and out-of-place that's in there?

I'm in my bedroom but there's a box of Sensodyne toothpaste, as yet unopened, sitting looking at me. It's on its way to the bathroom - has been for a couple of weeks... It'll make it there at some point I'm sure!

Nothing!

I’m really, really good at always taking something with me when I leave a room. So random objects always end up in their correct room.

(Putting then away once they get there is a completely different story though 😂.)

A pumpkin sitting on a towel!

A cheese grater next to the TV.

Bread machine sitting in the middle of the dining table.

I’m going to tidy up today, honest.

Two old long wooden rods just leaning on the wall, neither use nor ornament. They'll probably still be there this time next year.

I'm currently in my bedroom. There's a doll's house in here. It was mine when I was little, then both my dds have played with it. Now they're both too old for it, but I don't know what to do with it. So it's taking up space in my bedroom.

I can also see a toilet roll, a bottle of children's Ibuprofen and a roll of Christmas wrapping paper. Oh, and a load of stuff for/from work that I'm not taking back in case I have to work from home again.

DDs bike leaning against the dining table. She did bikeability at school and it has tipped it down since so the garden is a quagmire I don't fancy traversing to put it in the shed.

notacooldad · 24/10/2020 11:10

A tunics teacake wrapper on the bed side cabinet. I went to bed early last night and had supper in bed! I forgot to take the wrapper down this morning!

Chicchicchicchiclana · 24/10/2020 11:11

I'm in the kitchen.

Our portable fan (for when the weather gets very hot) is still on the side. I'll put it back in its box in the cellar today, promise!

LittleTiger007 · 24/10/2020 11:11

Dumbbells resting on the top of the radiator that I haven’t picked up for weeks

FiveShelties · 24/10/2020 11:11

Just had friends here for dinner (we are in NZ so 11.10pm here), there are many glasses, dishes, napkins and coffee cups randomly placed. Thank goodness for dishwasher.

ranoutofquinoaandprosecco · 24/10/2020 11:12

Mrs potato head on my fireplace! DH and DCs bought it for my desk when I started a year ago and it still hasn't made it in to the office

waitforitwaitforit · 24/10/2020 11:12

I've a square of vinyl floor tile leaning on the stair gate. Hopefully it'll be moved at some point today.

Foxyloxy1plus1 · 24/10/2020 11:12

It’s a rare day when there isn’t a diy tool or piece of equipment on the work top. I moan about it every day.

shower gel on top of the fridge

GreenPlum · 24/10/2020 11:15

A happy birthday banner above the window. It's been there since 7th December 2018.

Bridecilla · 24/10/2020 11:16

A bloody car wheel! There's a tiny hole somewhere in the boot. We think we've found it and filled it but the spare is in the house while it dries out!

GreenPlum · 24/10/2020 11:17

Car wheels are huge when they're not on cars aren't they?!

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 24/10/2020 11:20

I'm pretty sure the school bags and pe trainers are not supposed to be in the middle of the kitchen floor.

whojamaflip · 24/10/2020 11:21

A (live) chicken on top of the aga!

Ds found it trying to swim in one of the water troughs in the cattle yard earlier so it's inside drying out - it is in a cardboard box I hasten to add!

Goneback2school · 24/10/2020 11:22

I'm working and in a large communal office. There is a knitted woolly hat on the perspex barrier of the desk behind me. It was given by a client but hasnt gotten any further than the desk.

EatsFartsAndLeaves · 24/10/2020 11:23

Bloody hell I'm still in bed and can see some type of Gordon's gin gift thing, 3 mugs, an empty Pringles tube, a bike lock, a hard drive...

Giggorata · 24/10/2020 11:24

A clay onion pot on the coffee table. I plan to glue the bit that broke off on the lid. One day.
Meanwhile, it has some rolled up magazines in it.

iamtheoneandonlyyy · 24/10/2020 11:25

A little tikes car wearing a witches hat. It's grinning like an idiot

iklboo · 24/10/2020 11:26

Nothing. But that's probably because DS is in his room and DH is at work. I give it about half an hour after that situation changes before something is in here that shouldn't be.
