Hi Findingmyway,

Yes, the kind of things you mention, I do them ALL THE TIME and I HATE IT! Just a couple of days ago, I was coming to work, and to get into the building, I need a key card. So I put the key card in the front pocket of my purse. About 20 minutes later, my husband is taking me to work, and I can't find my key card. I start digging through my purse pockets, but forget about the front pocket. Eventually, I find it in the front pocket, but by then, I feel stupid. Then, when he drops me off at work, I forget to take my travel mug with coffee in it, which I had put in the cup holder right next to me! This is how I am much of the time. . .
