Lost socks

So I quickly put on my sweats this morning only to find something inside the pant leg by my knee. I reached in and pulled out a sock. I have had this happen before but it made me wonder this morning how many other lost socks are hiding in pants and other assorted places. And how long do they hide out in these place if they are never felt. Could this be the whereabouts of where the lost socks go? I have found a sock in my pant leg at work. Nothing like pulling a sock out of your pant leg with coworkers watching. Gee that's where that sock was. :-\

When the kids were younger I use to have a bag of socks I would try to match each time I did laundry, cleaned out drawers, looked under beds and in toy boxes. Sometimes they were found but most of the time they were gone. I did get to know these lost socks pretty well after looking for their mates for so long. When I found a match I got quite excited until I realized my victory was to be short lived since this was a never ending vicious cycle.

Now that it is just Mike and I at home I have noticed that this doesn't happen too often anymore. More times than not we come out even in the sock venue. Now we just miss parts of our memory and wonder where it has gone too. Maybe I should look in the legs of our pants. I just want to go on record as saying... give me lost socks over memory loss any day!
