How did you get home if you lost your key?

I caught a ride with Brother Harold Porter. I didn't realize my key was gone until Saturday when I was supposed to be at the Waffle House at 6:30 A.M. for morning pancakes. I missed my pancakes and spent the whole day going over my house for them, which was stupid, because they weren't even there.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

I an m not surprised you could not find your pancakes at home. They were still at the Waffle House.
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos 3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
Numbers 21:6 And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died.
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
Matthew 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Matthew 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

That's not what I meant, Hutchins, and you know it. Why are you always so critical of my grammar?

It happened again. I lost a set of 4 AA batteries to use with my camera sometime around October 2010. These were my backup batteries. I've been doing my best to keep my primaries charged up, but I never gave up looking for the other four.
Yesterday I was searching for my spare SD card and as I was rooting around in my camera bag I found the stupid batteries and they were in the front pocket the entire time. I literally have been taking them out on shoots all the time in that bag and each time I've been wondering where they were. I hope I don't make that mistake, again.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

My eyesight is getting worse. I spent two hours looking for my glasses this morning but I was wearing them the whole time. While I was looking for them I even forgot what I was looking for.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

It's just an expression we Normal people use. Brother Nobar isn't a member of your tribe. He reads his Bible every day, I know that.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

As do I, only with my ears rather than my eyeballs, which are inferior because you have to have light in order to use them. It's pretty cool to be able to read in pitch dark.

I can't see the difference.
Ears don't work without sound.
Eyes don't work without light.
But hearing is a special case of touch, which works at a distance; maybe Braille would have an advantage? But that wouldn't work either if one were catatonic.
Jesus is tha answer.

I'm sure you guys are getting tired of these stories, but it has happened, again. I spent two weeks looking for my key chain that has my car key and my flashlight. I looked everywhere including the frigerator and under my bed. I started assuming that I did something stupid, like drop it in the trash by mistake.
Well, today I decided to clean out the utility drawer in my kitchen and SURPRISE, my keys were hidden amongst a knot of wires from old AC adapters and unused headphones. This was the first place I had looked because it's right under the place where I usually drop the keys and I had searched thru this drawer several times but of course I was unable to actually see what I was looking for.
I keep telling my optometrist about this but he always assures me that my prescription is still accurate.
This is a good lesson because when someone tells me they lost something I always ask them, "where is the first place you looked?" and tell them to look there ten more times, because that's where it's going to end up.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

This time I lost my wallet as I was driving to the store. When I checked it wasn't in my pocket so I went back home and spent an hour looking for it in places that I already knew didn't have it, like my pants from yesterday.
I got exasperated and was ready to give up and then I spotted it in my car it was next to the seat and the door. I could have searched my house FOREVER and it wasn't even there!
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

I searched each room in my house multiple times and started to wonder whether one of my Mexicans took it. I even looked inside of the other tool boxes that already have different tools in them. I was desperate. I couldn't even remember the last time I used it.
Just as I was about to give up I went back to the first place I started looking and, surprise, there was my drill! I was almost ready to go out and buy another drill.
I used to joke and wonder why "you always find things in the last place you look," but I'm starting to wonder if it's more likely that I'm just blind and not seeing things that aren't lost and are right where they should be.

Nice very nice. Sometimes you find things when you are not searching for them. The harder you search less are the chances of getting them

It happened again. I lost my house key and spent the day looking for it. I found several things that I had been looking for like a miniature mother-of-pearl damascus steel pocket knife and my crescent wrench set. I finally found the key after rummaging thru the garage: I left it in the front-door lock overnight after coming home late.
Good thing I didn't get robbed.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

Brother Nobar, I was going to ask whether your father told you what causes blindness. But then I saw this next to your name, and realised it couldn't be that. There must be another reason.
Is it possible that you have any Syrian ancestors? I hope not! Or is your ancestry purely American - going back for thousands of years?
2 Kings 6:18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the Lord, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

When I lose small things, I pray. God sees all and knows where things are (In that respect, He is very much like Mrs Bathfire).
I prayed that my gold Patek Philippe watch would reveal itself unto me - I last remember having it in a gas station bathroom. I haven't found it yet, but that is only because God has answered "Wait."

It happened again. I was going fishing and went inside for s One minute later my keys are GONE! I looked for 30 minutes, I even looked in the fridge, more than once.
I finally found the keys in the fridge. I had grabbed a Miller Lite can and dropped them in the case. I found them when I grabbed a second one for the road.
I'm not surprised, anymore, but losing things over and over is really annoying.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

Brother Nobar, the solution is to have 2 sets of everything. It's very unlikely you'll lose both sets and, even if you do, you're twice as likely to find one of them. If your Alzheimers continues to progress necessary, you can accrue additional sets of items so you'll be sure never to lose anything.

Here is another good one:
Today I plugged my cell phone in to its charger and then spent 30 minutes looking for the phone around the house before I realized my mistake. I may never learn. I will never be on time.
May you be a blessing to every life you touch.
