kbutton Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Argh! I've lost two really good mop buckets to this kind of thing, and STILL found my replacement bucket being ill-used. Thankfully, that has stopped, but I feel your pain! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausmumof3 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I bought those big flexitubs for washing baskets. I have a few for sorting colours. Unfortunately they seem to be handy for literally everything and I can never find them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanier.1765 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Just bought a new mop today because my other ones disappeared into the ether of maleness. And when did such tiny mops become a thing? It was nearly impossible to find one big enough to fit a mop head. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halftime Hope Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 The 'ether of maleness' seems to suck up a fair number of my metal bakeware, too. Arghhh. (I tend to find it in the garage/artist studio with all kinds of artsy havoc on it...lots of resin.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destroyed by paint remover, paint, glue, greasy dirt bike goo 😠 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dh loves to cook... now I'm going to have to make sure he's turned off the burner... not the first time... On sunday, I found an all clad omelette pan with a MELTING pancake turner in it .. I'm surprised how easily it came up, though there is an outline remaining. still wondering if it will be salvaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have my artist, and I'll take your cook. (Oh, gosh, the bliss of having a male in the household who could cook for himself! Ddil got my one male cook...she owes me big time!) I'm so sorry about the allclad -- good lord, do they think allclad grows on trees?!? 😑 I have half a dozen disposable aluminum pie tins in my bakeware cabinet. What did I find in the garage? My stainless steel pie tin. I wasn't nice about it. I need to go think about the good things my 'artist' does, for sanity sake. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My stainless steel pie tin. I wasn't nice about it. I need to go think about the good things my 'artist' does, for sanity sake. he knows how much AC costs . . . for Christmas he bought himself an AC electric skillet. (there's a site that does their factory seconds. they send notices when they have "sales".). It's about the size of my 6qt skillet (which he hates because it's too big/doesn't fit on the burner). his icky (not that) old electric skillet - fits inside. speaking of . . . I still need to buy myself a christmas present. . . . . he gave me a "coupon" for steger mukluks. . . we don't live in an area I'd need them, we're not going to an area I'd need them. and as pretty as some of the higher end ones are - I'm not going to just wear them around. My costco sheepskin boots are fine. I started looking at medium suitcases . . . first attempt, I was shipped a LARGE suitcase (bags were mismarked at the factory), second attempt, . . integrated locks, and while I attempted to change the combination, it didn't work and I couldn't open it (at least I'd already completely packed). I spent time at the airport (after we arrived) chasing down the keeper of the keys TSA agent to open it. (yes, I've seen the UTUBE vids of how to open them, I wasn't going to risk it not opening) . . . I used a regular lock on my return home trip. (which it really wasn't designed to use). then I started looking at wheeled laptop bags that would fit under the seat as I'm getting tired of my backpack . . . aarrrgggghhhhh.
