Missing Template!
I've made Twister projects in the past, and I own three sizes of Twister rulers. Last Christmas, I was about to make twister wreaths and I lost the darn template in my house! Found it about two months later, way too late for Christmas giving! I've made several twister projects since then, with the twister and the little twister. I intended to use the Itty Bitty (or whatever it is called), so I have that one also.
So, today, when looking for the one for the 5" charms, it is LOST IN THIS HOUSE! How can this be, I keep a very neat organized home! Watch out, lightning is about to strike me! Could not find it anywhere. I found the other two, but not the size I want.
So, what's a girl to do? Continue to look, or......go shopping of course. Now I have two, one that I am going to use tonight and another one lost in the chaos!
Ever happen to you?

Re: Missing Template!
This has happened on many occasions, causing me to repurchase. Of course I find what's missing. The cause is leaving the room that the object belongs in with said object in hand. Having identified the problem, I plan on correcting my habits. I'll let you know how that turns out.

Re: Missing Template!
I just must want 2 of everything, since it happens to me very often. I will look and look, finally give in and go buy another one. As soon as it is out of it's packaging, the one that was hiding pops out!

Guarantee....you'll find it only after you purchase another AND are looking frantically for something else. Story of my life. My theory is that things get pulled into this black hole that throws things back up randomly when you are NOT looking......

A place for everything and everything in it's place is actually how I live my life. Can't live with disorganization and chaos. So, when I can't find something I KNOW I have, it is a catastrophe indeed. If it's urgent, I have to replace the "missing in action" item. The second I get it home, the aforementioned offender has mysteriously deposited itself in a very conspicuous location!!! I can then return the duplicate. DRIVES ME NUTS!!!

This happens to us all. I think you should gift one to a friend. Don't you agree, friend?

Re: Missing Template!
Oh yes... This happens to me now and then...OK.... It happens frequently... I'm not the most organized person in the world... Things just disappear around here. For instance, my fifteen dollar can of basting sorry is missing... I used a coupon to get it, but still.... I don't want to have to buy another one.... It seems that I am always looking for something... It drives me crazy.....
So... Good luck... I hope your template shows up soon. You know it will... Where else can it be but in your house?
