Yesterday: I sleep with ear protection, my right ear is near-to-deaf, I cannot find directions that are audible.
I am on holiday, forgot to switch off the phone - 5:00 a.m. ... phone wakes me up, just where???
Not at my night-table.
And why do I hear it through the closed door? With ear-protection!
But then my brain often wakes me at 04:00 a.m. to check if Ingo got up, so reckon it was my brain.
Off with the ear-protection and on the search to the phone!
Not at my PC-table... it sounds like kitchen.
Not on the table, sounds like Microwave. WHAT?
OK, change of plan (it is 05:01 a.m. and I´m on holiday, it is dark).
> Get.Your.Glasses!!! (I am very short-sighted)
Didn´t help. I heard the ring but didn´t see it!
Like in Perth 2017(?) - Matrjoschka #1:
I put my red hat in a bag, Ingo put the bag in my backpack whilst I got two pints of beer.
When I wanted my red hat it was "gone".
Asked for my red hat. Two words: Red hat.
Barkeeper in panic: Lost Redhead!!!!
I didn´t hear the difference and it was a bit of chaos.
I was asked about the size!!! I´d bought the hat in the kid´s section but luckily said, a bit pis#ed already, "well... MY size!!"
They thought I lost my child. My hair is reddish > Redhead.
Really. IF I had a child and lost it in a bar (???) I would say boy/girl, size (OK we get there) what the kid is wearing. I would be precise.
> Tuesday went to ESE and put the phone in my backpack.
Ingo took the backpack for grocery shopping and put it where it belongs, beside the microwave.
Phone was still in there.
GAH.
Luckily I remembered I´d put it in there for... hahaha... in case I get lost.
Old people need fixed places, lesson learned!
On the other hand: brain needed to find the solution and it did.
Sö:Fixed places, other: Matrjoschka gets you!!!
... or half of her...
Hihihi.... "Sö" > typing-error from my side. East Germans from Saxony say "söööö".
Sweet memories of Tuscany. Our bus driver (and all) where from there.
It was an Educational trip and Grit was Ingo´s age, Jens mine. We had educational fun!
Of course I bought that apron...
We are Germans, right. So, all the beer that was left Jens gave to us all... in that apron - it was hilarious. But...
Henry 🦁
What a beginning of the day that was.
Hope I made you laugh...

Sorry about the ear-Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
I found it!
It was an accident - things happen.... could be worse.
...yes, crazy!
Boring went away...
I remember you sharing the apron. But I can relate to something beeping (in your case the phone) and not being able to find the sound. Sometimes its my washing machine. Sometimes it's the battery in a smoke detector that needs to replaced. AUGH. Hope you enjoy your holiday. hugs-Erika
I hate hearing beeps from something and then trying to find it. Often it turns out to be something from outside.
Sorry about the ear, dear friend Iris! I love that thing in your first photo. Forget what it is called, though. And Henry made me laugh! LOL! Sending you much love and warm hugs, dear Iris. :)
That's happened a few times with my phone too.
OMG that apron. NO NO NO. LOL Henry's photo say it all.
I don't recall what those stacking dolls are call. I'd add them to my treasure box for the grandchildren.
I love the nesting dolls and want to buy some for the twins, but they are not taught to care for their things so I will wait until they are older. I have a place for everything and always have things where they should be, my phone lives in my jacket pocket when I go out in cold weather and on the table beside me as soon as I get home, over night it is plugged in to charge. I don't like the apron.
LOL, fun you remember that apron - to Italy!!! I had a "fun" day, post to come, hugs!
So I am not to blame my ear? I thought I silent sorry to it ;-)
Dear friend Linda, things could be worse, I still hear a bit with the ear. These dolls really are called Matrjoschka. My family had a set. Sadly I didn´t take it! Thank you for the warm hugs, the heat waves go away! :-)
Nice to learn I am not alone, Bill!
Who could not buy that thing, LOL. Hangs in the kitchen still. Wow... since 10 years!
They are really called Matrjoschka, they are Russian. Sadly I didn´t take the set my parents had....
I am still sad I didn´t take the Russian Matrjoschka my parents had.
Yes. Fixed places!!! I really looked in the microwave....
In Italy you find so many "manly" statues, the apron was a "must"! :-)
It was one of our best holidays, really....
I am constantly using the Find My Phone feature because I can't remember where I left it, in the house! Half the time it's in the charging station. Getting old is fun. 🤣
Find My Phone sounds like a clever idea!!!! I try to see and find (haha) the fun! 🤣
