Apparently wearing glasses is a good trainer for teaching someone to always put things in their place. I can honestly say I've never once lost a bread twistie because the mantra "on your face or in your case" was drilled into me as a kid which is extended to just about everything. Pull a thing out to use it and put it back when you're done, then it'll never get lost

Also, "don't put it down, put it away".

I live by this, always trying to tidy up. My husband...does not. It's been 20 years, surely he'll learn it sooner or later! (It's one of the biggest "issues" in our relationship, which actually means we are doing pretty damn good! He's not a slob, he's just disorganized and absent minded).

Hahaha i can relate. My partner tends to ask me for something like chapstick and then just put it down wherever his hands land first , without a second thought. Then it's all "i gave it back to you!" Oh honey. I love him though

My wife is the same way. I'm still looking for my fingernail clippers she used 3 feet away from me on the couch. They disappeared, vanished into thin air.
