I don’t know how she  loses random objects as she goes through the day.  To be honest,  I don’t know how I do it, either.   Finding some things is a snap; other objects never appear no matter how diligent the prayers to Saint Anthony may be.

Today, I sat on the sofa in my office  to read for a bit.  The gold hoop on my left ear managed to come unhooked and fall between the cushions of the couch,  and as I reached down to retrieve it, I found the missing camera.

The black hole of the couch cushions, however, ate the earring.  Maybe it will turn up under her bed.
