I posted this on H&F, but I know yall are a tad more "safe" than I am, so I figured I'd ask.
Tonight I went on a walk and stuck my house key in my shoe like always. I get back to the house and my key is gone! Its 10:00 at night, so Im not going to retrace my steps tonight, but would it be worth it tomorrow to try to find it? I really dont think Im going to find it, I covered a good distance too, so there's really no telling where it fell out. I live in a fairly large neighborhood, so pegging my key to my house would be hard.
So WWYD? Would you go out and try to find it in the light tomorrow, or would you declare it a loss?
Update: I just retraced my steps and no key. My mom doesnt want me to spend the money to rekey the doors, so if something happens yall have full rights to tell me (or really my mom) "I told you so."
Re: XP WWYD re: lost key on walk UPDATED
ditto LB.
Hope you find it! It could happen!
I lost a key on a run once, but I was able to narrow down where it happened. I found it, but I never carried it the same way again.
Do you put it IN your shoe? When I run with my keys (usually car keyfob), I unstring the first lace on one side, run the lace through the key, back through the hole & tie like normal. No way that sucker is getting off. Yes, it takes a little time, but I won't lose it that way.
That's what I do, too. Or put it in pockets that zip up completely closed.
Also, ditto PP's, do a quick search but then just change the locks if you don't find it.
Yep. That's exactly what I do too.
Ditton Jodi on trying to re key them.
I'd look a bit for it but not stress and just replace the locks.
