Where is it?
So we all have done it at some time, lost something and have to replace it.
Occasionally you find what you lost after you replaced it.
Well this time I had used my Ez-Lap sharpening stone.
I used it to sharpen a couple of guys knives at bear camp. I was sitting in the living room when I sharpened the knives.
Fast forward, back home, unpacked and I couldn't find the Ez-Lap anywhere.
Looked in my duffle bags, in my hunting backpack, no where to be found.
I figured I must have set it somewhere in the cabin and now it's gone.
So I ordered another one on line and have had it for a few weeks.
Today I needed something from my archery tackle box and...........

Re: Where is it?
Bought a hide a key for my truck. So I hide it and think, that's a great hiding place. Couple yrs later need that key, can't find it so I buy another. As I need a place to hide it I figure this will be a great hiding place. and it was, there was my first hidden key,! DA Guess I'm an old fart!
Re: Where is it?
I doubt the rules of our youth even apply anymore, but when I couldn't find a tool at work and after searching "everywhere" for it---learned to wait at least two weeks before ordering a new one. I simply put myself in the habit of borrowing one from someone else for a while before replacing it.
It would usually show up by then, if it was going to.
Nowadays? I usually give up alot sooner and am getting used to loosing things. My Grandson doesn't even wait for me to wander around looking for my coffee cup anymore. He simply now takes it out of the microwave and brings it to me.
Probably the best "lost and found" was my Kershaw Snap-on commemorative that finally showed itself under some leaves out in what was left of my torn down garage 16 or 17 years after being lost. I have no idea how I misplaced or lost that one. I thought it had worked loose from the pocket clip that held it to my pants and was in a customer's car.
I'm hoping that an even more expensive Benchmade Mini Grip folder shows up in my daughter's storage bin some day. At least that's where I think that one went. It could have gone bye bye in the rented U-Haul.
I guess you can now keep one stone handy on your desk and the other in your traveling kit now. We are probably still doing ok until we forget to put the broadheads on the end of our arrows. By then it may be time to hand over the keys to the car.

Jesus replaces the old covenant and speaks to the believer the moral code of God by His Spirit directly to the heart. He is the eternal, everlasting revelation of God to mankind. In Him is both the knowledge of righteousness and the power to live right.

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.
