Lost? Or organized?

About a month ago some friends and I booked a trip to Mexico. We are going in April. I haven't seen my passport for awhile so I thought I should start looking.

I have been looking for it for weeks.

I thought maybe I should order a new one, but I really like looking at all the stamps of where I've been so that was an option I was not ready to accept. And, I don't have a Mexico stamp yet. Back in my day, passports weren't needed to go to Mexico.

I went through my desk, file cabinet, computer bag (three times), junk organizer thing....couldn't find it.

So this morning I went to the garage to get the ladder so I can get the suitcase down out of the closet. Maybe I left it in my rollie. As I reached for the ladder, I saw an accordion file folder thing on a shelf...in the garage. I'll just look...maybe I put it in there. I do have days where I try to organize things.

Voila!

It was in the tab marked "birth certificates/passport".

In the garage.


Organization doesn't always pay off.
