Anyone suffering CRS

[bironacad]

I am finding that finding things are not what they use to be, lol, stopped in on a cousin for tea and in the twenty minute time it took for the tea and me to get on my way again, I misplaced my keys and glasses, go figure, took as much time to find the items as it did for the cup of tea. Hey if you need glasses to see the image click on it to enlarge.:laughing:

Seriously, have you considered wearing a "Fanny Pack" around your waist? I wear a prostheses and sometimes use crutches and the wheelchair. I put my things in my fanny pack. It contains extras and I just put items in it and I know exactly where to look. This may not be ideal for you, but this system has worked for me for 2 years.

Na, ive never spent 10 minutes looking for my keys


and their in my other hand. Never

I use something similar; works for me too.

Oh come on now....what if you forget where your fanny is.

also, you'd constantly be going around saying.... "Jeff, does this make my butt look big"

My former mother-in-law used to complain about MRS disease. We would look at each other and shrug. (What is she talking about?) So we asked her. She said, "MRS disease, you know - Cant Remember Sh.t." When we corrected her she said "See what I mean?".

Maybe?? Just can't remember.

I haven't lost a tool in my hand since yesterday. :laughing: :thumbsup:

 

[dodge man]

I'm sorrry, what were we talking about?

I suffer all the time from CRS.
When I put something away I say to myself That's a good place for that. 6 months later when I need it I can't remember where I put it. I know I put it where I wouldn't forget but I did anyway. Maybe that's why I end up with duplicates of my tools. I only find what I was looking for after I've bought another one.

Actually mine is not a fanny pack, more like a man purse.:laughing:

When I had a real job, in the morning, I put my gun, belt badge, ID, wallet, money clip, knife, two ink pens, glass case, spare magazine holder, pepper spray, key ring on then got my brief case, laptop...

Getting ready to just dink around now is not much of a challenge...yet

I often put my keys, phone etc stuff in my baseball cap, set upside down on a table. It becomes my man purse.

 

[grnspot110]

I've been told not to worry about loosing your keys, but to worry when you don't remember what to do with them once you've found them!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~~ grnspot

 

[grsthegreat]

Of course their in the last spot. why would you continue searching for them after you found them burrrrr

Actually when i sit back and think about it...man was i STUPID.

i ran a job where i had to pay the local help in CASH, Daily. and everyone knew i had that cash.

They found 2 bodies in the jobsite dumpsters during the 3 months i worked there.

Actually the Rott (Rocky) was my best defensive weapon

When I worked in KC Wayne Minor Housing Project was still there and we usually went in teams. there were always cartridge casings in the parking lot, stair wells and there were a lot of killings there.

On one occasion, a friend of mine and I were going to one of the projects to pick up an absconder and contacted KCPD to go with us. When the two man car showed up, we were told they would not accompany us. We had no choice, so we had to go in; turned out to be no big deal that time anyway.

I did transfer out after about a year and a half; thing is I started to like it.

I carried a shoulder holster for the last year i worked in Calif, and when i moved to Idaho in 1996, i put the guns in the safe.

I am only now thinking of getting a concealed carry license again, as I'm afraid that they may cancel the program soon.

I have no real reason to need one though. I let my Calif license expire many years ago.

I posted this on another thread, but like Bird, when I retired I also quit carrying, but after a while got my CCW permit and now carry pretty regularly, but I doubt the actual need for one will ever arise. In Missouri, you have to have a CCW to carry on your own property though not in a dwelling or business you own and I spend a lot of time up in our woods or out in the fields on our farms and kind of like to have one handy; probably just paranoid.
