Lost glasses

16 replies

So... wondering whether through the power on MN whether we'll be able to find my DH glasses.

Normally takes them off right before bed and puts on his bedside table. This morning, vamoosh! Looked everywhere! Bear in mind he found his lost sunglasses whilst we were looking, they were in the hallway lamp (I suspect our 3 yo put them in there).

Any suggestions?

I think I threw a pair of glasses away because I didn’t realise I’d knocked them in a bin next to my bedside table, so that’s my suggestion

I found mine on my head!

Where mine have appeared when DS was a toddler. Behind the TV, in the washing machine, in the laundry basket.
He also was very good at "finding" them for me so perhaps ask the toddler to help find them.

Found mine behind the radiator in my hall...not sure if they'd fallen out of my bag (which was hung on the rack above - unlikely) or if I'd balanced them on top of it whilst putting my coat on/off and they just got knocked off 🤷‍♀️

In any event, it was weeks before I found them and in the intervening time I'd had to buy new ones 😬

Put the sunglasses somewhere noticable and lie in wait for the 3 year old to pick them up and take you to the other glasses.

I've searched for mine when I've been wearing them before! 🙄

Update - glasses found. In my knickers drawer 😂😁

Did the three year old lead you to their location or did you accidentally happen upon them 😅

I have so many questions 😂

Trying to think why you put them there!

Not as bad as my sister. As we were packing away the Chritmas decorations, she put the SKY remote in the bag, which wasnt found untii almost a year later. By then my parents had searched the house and bought a new one.

How did they get there? Grin

Sparklybutold · 22/06/2024 20:29

@Procrastinates I sat on my side of the bed and thought through what my husband would have been doing when he last had them. I then remembered he was on my side of the bed as our toddler cosleeps and took his side. I then thought he puts his glasses on the bedside table and they likely fell as my side is covered in clothes etc! Bish bash bosh! There they were! Sat snuggly inside my satin rose patterned knickers!

There’s a joke there, somewhere!
