    Default Can anyone tell me WHERE I put my refill package of rotary blades? Grrrrrrr

    Wouldn't you know it. It's raining today so I decided to start cutting out everything for my Christmas table topper. I use my dining room table to cut and had to put everything away in a plastic tote since we had our family here for Thanksgiving dinner. I have been through this tote 3 times, found both of my rotary cutters, my marking pens, scissors and everything else that I put in it last week...EXCEPT MY NEW BLADES. And I definitely need to replace the one that I've been using.

    Now I can spend the day searching for them when I planned to be cutting. I'm sure I will find it where I put it...LOL.

    My advice: (1) Ask the cat. Don't believe cat when he says he has no knowledge of the refills. (2) Ask the dog. Don't be swayed by dog's sad, repentant look. (3) Make a quick run to the store and buy more refills -- that's the only sure way to find your missing rotary blades.

    Can you tell I'm no good at finding ANYTHING?

    When I can't find something I always say this prayer to St. Anthony and he finds it for me. It never fails.
    A......is lost, it needs to be found, please Saint Anthony look around.

    Good luck and God bless.

    I agree a good shake of all the fabric may find them.

    They are probably with the package of buttons I bought for a Merry Christmas banner that I have searched the house high and low and just can't find them. I feel your pain.

    I hate to say this but, "THANK GOODNESS I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE" - I thought this only happened to me. I'm sorry it happened to you, but it is reassuring. The best part is, when you least expect it you'll find them and then have them for next time.

    I love the idea of asking the cat - please tell us if he had an answer. My cat would yawn, roll over and snooze some more!
