It is supposed to be hanging over the computer. Not here. It often resides in my purse. Nope. Did I take it out of my purse after the caterpillar photo? Yes... I'm pretty sure I did. I think I even took in on my morning walk yesterday hoping to take other caterpillar pictures. But I couldn't find any caterpillar's. So.... Did I leave it in my sweatshirt pocket and wash the sweatshirt? No residue of it in the washing machine nor in the closet.
Hmmm. Did the cats take it? They get blamed for a lot around here and I KNOW they steal socks and pincushions. I've looked under tables, chairs and the sofa. No camera. Did I carry it to the sewing room? Can't see anything in there to really know so I've cleared the desk and ironing board thinking it might have gotten lost under some scraps. Nope.
In the car? Did I take it to crosswalk duty? Not there now! Heaven forbid, did I leave it in the car and it got stolen at the supermarket? I don't think so. I don't think I took it out of my purse. I'm pretty sure I locked the car (my new car locks by the remote control button. I find that such a fun toy!) Not IN my crosswalk uniform. I've patted all the pockets.
I didn't go to the pool yesterday and we can't take pictures there anyway. I don't see it in the kitchen but I'm not willing to clean the refrigerator just to make sure... I'm not that out of it yet... I've vacuumed. I've straightened and put away. I've hung out laundry and various articles of clothing that I found lying around. No camera. The house looks pretty good.
My camera lives in a bright orange case. It shouldn't be that hard to spot. I will start panicking tomorrow.
You missed out on a caterpillar.

have my camera but can't find the charger... really should look for it ;p
Good luck with yours :)
Ask Tetsu to look for it---it's in plain sight, we just never "see" it! I lost my white cell phone on a sheet of paper once. My box of 100 sewing machine needles in the sewing machine case. Car keys--in my jacket pocket I hung up. You don't have anything orange that you set it by, do you??? Ahah, try the couch or chair cushions--you set it down beside you while you did something else! You were reading on the computer! No?? Well, there's always the bathroom. Sigh--those are all my ideas.....
Sounds very familiar ... and suddenly it just appears .. or my husband finds it ... with the usual smile ...

we usually play this game with my husbands phone :-)
Don't worry, it will be in plain sight soon!
In my house, I am the one with the head full of pictures of where I saw things. So, DH and DS don't seem to try to remember where they left things, they just ask me. BUT, if I haven't seen it, they get annoyed that I don't know and don't attempt to help to find it. Well, there is no point. I can only know where to look if I have seen it. I can't begin to work out the possiblities of where they might have put something otherwise!
Anyway, the house cleaning thing is one of the benefits of me trying to find things when I have moved piles one too many times in my studio!
lots of luck!

Oh, our cameras are our friends recording all of the good things we see and want to keep in our memories - at least mine is! I hope you find it very soon! We look forward to seeing that caterpillar.
Good luck with the search!

I can relate and mine was missing for three weeks+ Finally found it in the trunk of the car in a grocery bag. Retrace your steps.
good luck
I'm sure it will turn up eventually. Until then, buy a backup!
Oh, man, can I ever relate! I have become ruthless in the "put it back IMMEDIATELY where it belongs" routine or everything goes missing. I'm blaming age. LOL My husband can put things down randomly and remember later where they are (unless I straighten the room and mess up his system!). Me, I "lost" my brown framed glasses on a cherry table top once. Blended right in. I am resigned to be hopeless. I hope you have better luck finding things.
