Ya gotta watch those pack rats.
Turn your back for eleven years and look what happens.
You can probably find that wire down at the recycling center.
Or at the copper smelter…
Just think, if you hadn't got married you'd still have the wire.
But come to think of it, you got lucky
, and wire is cheap. Account deleted.

Tin,
It warms my heart to think that I'm not the only idiot to do this
1. It's under the boxes and garbage (excuse me… HOUSEHOLD GOODS) that you piled on it.
2. It's under the fill that you buried it under when you extended the project. (I do have a cheapy metal detector you can use if you need, during your prospecting endeavors)
3. You put it in a safe place so you would remember right where it was when you got to the point that you are at right now.

I'm pretty sure you will find it after you buy some more wire at about 4+ times the cost it was 11 years ago. Hi, my name is Carl, I am a pack rat and was well trained by my mother but I have never been able to get as good as she was.
Now I try to put related items on the shelves close to each other and that helps. It's said that we never forget anything we see, read, write or say but we can't always call it up from the store house in the brain. The fact is, the brain will only release the info until after we have done something that the info is no longer needed and then it comes in a revelation of thought.

I found the wire last night
. It was in a different set of conduit next to the propane tank that came with the greenhouse. Buried under 11 years of dirt, needles,leaves and weeds. I was just about to call it quits with the weedeater last night, when it starts plowing into the dirt I know I'm tired and need to stop. Luckily that moment came right where this stuff was buried -

I about fell over pricing wire. I'll be looking for where I put mine for a LONG time before spending $150.00 or so on what would have cost $20-30.00 eleven years ago.
