Missing Sock Mystery Solution

One of the biggest mystery's 
Known to man that makes no sense to me
Is why when washing a pair of socks
You can only ever find one
The solution don't buy just two socks but three
One for the sock fairy and a pair for us
End of the mystery.

Case closed mystery solved.

That shows you have a lot of empathy for others Tim. we need more people like that in the world. if only we all did that what a great world we'd have. Pete.

Socks seem to be swallowed up by the swamp monster for some reason..I try to reason and say well it will show up in a week or two but that doesn't happen..Thanks for the visit to my page..Sara
