Now Where Is That....?

I think I have mentioned before that I can be a little obsessive. I'm better than I used to be, but none the less my anal retentiveness shows up occasionally. My issue is with not having all of the pieces or parts that go with a particular item. For example: my drill. I better have the drill, bits, and batteries. If I am missing one little drill bit it drives me crazy.

My ongoing obsession with missing pieces has spilled over into the toy area. I have a playroom set up for the grand kids. It's stocked with all kinds of toys with lots of pieces. My biggest obsession is with the 6 coins from a cash register. When I am putting toys away, there better be 6 gray plastic coins in the cash drawer or I am immediately stressed. I know it's dumb and irrational but I can't help it. If any are missing, I know they have to be in the house so I look for them until I find them. One time 3 coins were missing. I knew that Julian and Nicholas were the last ones to play with it so I called Bryan to see if they took them home with them. Sick I know! Sicker yet, I found out that Bryan hid them from me. I didn't care as long as I got them back. I have gone so far as to remove the coins from the cash register drawer before the kids played with it so they wouldn't loose them. I need help!

I currently have all of the coins, however; I am missing a blue ball from the popper, a stuffed kitty from the vet hospital and 1 piece of the 162 piece Lincoln Log set (I know because I counted them). If you have them or know where they are, please return them (no questions asked). My sanity is at stake here!
