Sometime around a week ago, I opened the drawer to reach for the toothpaste and .... it was gone? (enter quizzical raised eyebrow here)... ha ha ... but for real, it's always in the basket and it always goes back before the drawer is re-closed.
Toothpaste?.. .there is toothpaste in that photo you say and well.... there is, but I always have two kinds in there all the time and the one I use the most was gone.
I immediately looked all around the bathroom to see where I could have laid it instead, but no... nowhere to be seen. I checked the drawers below the one it belongs in too in case I had dropped it back into the wrong one, but ... NO....
So I carried on with the other toothpaste and added the now missing brand to my shopping list. Truly, it made no sense. I don't use my toothpaste anywhere else. Besides... I already knew how this happened, a poltergeist, no question.
About 4 days later after I no longer wondered what the poltergeist had done with it, I was at my desk, minding my own business or reading blogs on Hive and something caught my eye. What ? Is that the end of a toothpaste tube under that pile of papers???
Why yes ! ..there it was ! I know that had not been there for 4 days. I wonder where the poltergeist hid it during those days before putting it on my desk. Hmmmm ... I can't imagine.
You do know that poltergeists are the reason that old folks appear to start losing things and forgetting things don't you? It's a thing... It's been proven... somewhere... by somebody. Seems somehow they attach themselves to people as they age a bit. I guess we're easier to fool and mess with. They are mostly known to be friendly, but quite the avid jokesters.
You think I'm kidding .. .right ? I have proof right here that they come in and do my hair sometimes while I'm sleeping. See???? Mess like that can't just happen while laying still on a pillow.
Anyway, I took the stolen tube back to it's basket, but by that time it had been replaced by a newer, plumper tube. I hope that didn't make it sad.
So there you have it. This is just the lastest trickery that has happened around here. Oh yes, things like this have happened before, but I didn't think to come tell them all on the Hive... till now. 🤣
Ya'll are so lucky ! If you are too young now to have a poltergeist come hang out with you, don't worry, you'll get your turn. Yours is out there just waiting till you're ready.
It's Friday, it is supposed to be the start of the weekend, but it doesn't feel like it to me because I have to work some mandatory overtime tomorrow. Parden me if I complain about that every time it happens. LOL....
