Default The Three Day Rule

I have a similar "3 day rule".. If I can't find a tool, I know I have, I
must wait at least 3 days before declaring it lost or buying a new one.


That seems like a pretty good rule but how to you get your work done.
We have just moved and the garage/shop is not set up; can't find
anything. Some days I don't even have a hammer and have to borrow
SWMBO's princess hammer. Yes, It does have little bits of glitter all
throught the transparent handle grip. Today the missing item was a
cannon. I finally found it sitting on the desk in garage when I went
looking for some scissors. Couldn't find any scissors though. Leigh at
