I've lost a few things. And to top it all off - the creme de la creme, if you will, I ran over my stroller last week. My beautiful, expensive, much loved stroller. Put it on the ground while I got Ella into the car, then stood there trying to remember what it was I thought I was forgetting - shrugged my shoulders and got myself into the car - backed up and suddenly it came to me - I forgot to put my stroller in the car and now it is squished. I re-attached a wheel that had fallen off and as of yet, have not looked to see the rest of the damage. I just can't. Wow, that was cathartic. Maybe today will be the day.
