Where are my reading glasses?

My favourite ones...current prescription, nice lightweight frames. I think I brought them downstairs at breakfast, and they are not where they should be.

Where are they?!

In the fridge

niceberg · 01/11/2020 20:16

Hadn't thought of that.

But not there, or on my head.

Well I lost mine 6 months ago (in the house) and they still haven't turned up :(

Do you have a cat or a dog?

Was going to say on your head..!

I once lost mine after a few glasses of wine. Looked everywhere and it was only as I glanced in the mirror on the way past that I realised I was wearing them!

But try... arm of chair, on cushion, inside magazine/book, on a child, in the car, bedside table, bathroom shelf, jacket pocket, glasses case...

Mine were in my dressing gown pocket when I mislaid them this morning.

RosieLemonade · 01/11/2020 20:25

On the microwave? On the floor somewhere?

niceberg · 01/11/2020 20:26

I'm liking all of these suggestions, will get to it as soon as I've treated smallest child's verruca (nice). At least I cannot see it so clearly tonight.

What might our cats have done with them?! They are not big readers. As far as I know.

My Dh’s were in the laundry basket!

Sunsetdawn · 01/11/2020 20:27

In the bits and bobs drawer? Handbag? By the telly?

EatPrayYoga · 01/11/2020 20:27

Under the sofa

Sunsetdawn · 01/11/2020 20:28

What were you wearing? Could they be in a pocket?

Cherrypicker85 · 01/11/2020 20:30

By the bathroom sink, or bathtub, on the kitchen counter, between the sofa cushions, somewhere on the bed covers. I sympathize so much. Let us know when you find them.

vanillandhoney · 01/11/2020 20:31

In the cupboard/fridge/bread bin.

Purplewithred · 01/11/2020 20:34

On a chain round your neck? In the washing machine? In the recycling bin?

niceberg · 01/11/2020 20:36

in the breadbin
😆 love it

I have only one pair of regular glasses but 3 pairs of reading glasses (whenever I get a new pair of regular specs I have reading lenses put in the old frames). Since wfh I'm constantly losing my regular glasses. Hope you find yours!

niceberg · 01/11/2020 20:38

Sunsetdawn I was wearing my dressing gown. Good suggestion to check pockets, but they are not there 😱

@Sunsetdawn Good call! I found my prescription sunglasses in the bits and bobs drawer. Had been looking for them since April. Finally found them there in October, having already checked that drawer several times.

EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 01/11/2020 20:38

They fell off as you were putting your socks on and you didn't realise.

vanillandhoney · 01/11/2020 20:40

Did you leave them in the bathroom? Back of the toilet/on the side of the bath/by the sink?

flatpack1 · 01/11/2020 20:40

In the bin, under the bed, between the pillows

niceberg · 01/11/2020 20:43

plixy such bad luck losing your prescription sunglasses for the whole summer!!

Hmm, bits and bobs drawer... DH has a tidying habit which could lead there.
