The original point was I wanted to take it apart to get my new key and do a DIY pictorial for those wanting to get a key out of their barrel.
My Wife is not quite that bad but close. She usually limits Herself to moving the item/s someplace and not telling Me. The effect is that I think I missplaced it and end up rummaging through the House cursing for a few Hours till I give up.
When I She gets Home from work and I ask what happned to X the first response is to deny She knows what I am talking about and that turnes into "what did you do with it".

After I explain how much I need the X and how much suffering I went through trying to find X She finally admits She may have moved.

She wonders off and generally in a few minutes She brings Me X or points and says "is that it".

On the good side I have a bad memory and if I do missplace something and I left it someplace where it can be seen and I can describe it enough so She can recognize it (this is tough sometimes because English is like Her 3rd Language) about 98% of the time She can find it for Me.
