My elderly Mother is just like that, she tidies things away and then never knows where she put them. I dread doing jobs at her place that take more than one day as she always makes the place look nice inbetween and I spend a lot of the second day just trying to find things that the 5 foot 2, and getting smaller all the time, English fairy has squirelled away.
