Another one for the books...

After paying for my purchases at the self-serve checkout at Woolworths today, I put my wallet back into my hand bag (it's one with pockets underneath) and noticed the other pocket was open - the one that had my keys in it... OMG I've lost my keys!!!

A very patient friend & I spent the next hour retracing our steps around the whole of the shopping centre looking for the damn keys until I had a brilliant idea... I wonder if they ARE in my bag but in the other pocket? Well bugger me, they WERE in there, under my wallet! (I realised then that the other pocket was open at the checkout because I'd just taken my wallet OUT of it!) I apologised profusely to my friend for my stupidity and almost burst into tears.

This goes down in my 'Placenta-Brain Moment' Hall of Fame.
