ANOTHER DISASTER page 3

Margaret always has her own agenda, she does not coordinate well with coworkers or with me. She decided that she, personally, had to go through her closets and remove all pins from her jackets, is spite of the request of the cleaning crew that they would do it before packing the coats up for the dry cleaning company. So she worked Friday afternoon going through our closets checking her coats and jacket pockets and removing pins from her coats. She put them in a department store bag and put the bag in a safe place to finish up Friday afternoon. Then she forgot where she put the bag.

Margaret holds her bag of coat pins which I found in the drawer she is sitting in front of.

I was awaken Saturday morn by the noise of Margaret searching about.  She had awaken early and could not remember where she had stored the bag of pins. She spent a good part of Saturday searching, and a good part of Sunday morning also. I had tried to get Margaret to sit down and focus her mind on the problem Saturday, she would not cooperate. And again, Sunday morning I tried to get her to focus and imagine the possibilities. She refused. Finally, Sunday afternoon I managed to get her to cooperate and we concluded that she had put the bag in our bedroom dresser, despite her insistence that she could not have, because the cleaners were working in that room. We looked through two of the drawers before she  went to eat. Then I looked through the last four drawers and found it in the last one.
