A Phone Is Missing

A phone is missing
We find all kinds of wrappers
Under dirty chairs

A phone is missing
How did we get so many junk drawers?
We better stop looking

There's no living without a couple of junk drawers; especially today. Hope you found the phone. Enjoyed.

My husband received a message from his father who lurks around here all the time. He told him to lift the chair from the back and there it was. Dwight (his father) passed in 1984.

You never know what you’ll find when you move the living room furniture :) Usually not what your looking for.

I was cringing when I saw the empty ice cream cups under there and the candy bar wrappers.

I sort a junk drawer out to no avail. It comes back in full force within a month.
