When you lose something do you tear the house apart?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Depends what I have lost. If it is something very precious and I am panicking I will probably tear around madly for it. If that doesn’t succeed, I will spend some time mentally back-tracking to see if I can remember when I last saw it and finally, if all else failed I will start to methodically go through things and yes, probably tidy things as I go. If it was a discount card or something like that I would look in key places and quite possibly use the opportunity to tidy drawers etc. as I went.
