To HATE losing things!

I’ve lost my AirPods. I think they’re honestly gone forever as I’ve searched everywhere in the house, the last place they were was in my work bag which I routinely empty - by taking all the valuables out/skin care and work stuff and then tipping the rest of the contents in the bin as it’s usually just used tissues, wrappers and crumbs. I always put the AirPods to one side. Last I remember is checking to see if they had battery and they didn’t, so I popped them back in my bag. So I thought. Since been to work x3 not used them on any day and they are not in the bag, nor anywhere in the house

I can afford to replace them but they were a gift a couple of years ago and I feel very bad misplacing a gift that someone else spent a lot of money on. Ugh. Losing things is the worst ever feeling to me as I always feel so guilty about it

Anyone else or AIBU and do these things just happen??

And cost of living we could do without it I guess

Have the bins been collected since you last saw them? Same thing happened to me and my DH went through the bin bags just before bin day and found them! I was so happy!

I absolutely hate losing things, and pride myself that even with four children I've rarely lost anything (hoodies, coats, hats, shoes, gloves etc) But then, when I do, I take it very badly, and don't let go easily! I definitely feel your pain.
