They will use them to add to their nest. He has found single socks as part of a nest many times when demolishing a wall to work a plumbing issue.Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16422291337320575261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-69057458654647654152009-05-18T14:07:00.000-05:002009-05-18T14:07:00.000-05:00I've started buying socks from Costco--50 pairs al...I've started buying socks from Costco--50 pairs all alike!<br /><br />An everyday mystery at my house would be--why empty boxes of cereal are left in the pantry.

I have a box filled with unmatched socks that I can't quite throw away because the sock monster might decide to give the mates back some day.Jean Henry Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146960738692672013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-85523104357660312112009-05-18T13:12:00.000-05:002009-05-18T13:12:00.000-05:00Man, I saw the title of this post and HAD to come ...Man, I saw the title of this post and HAD to come over. YES! IT HAS BEEN A MYSTERY ALL MY LIFE WHERE'N THE HELL DOES ONE SOCK ALWAYS DISAPPEAR TO AT EVERY WASHING OF THE LAUNDRY!<br /><br />Not two socks, no. Just one. If two were lost of the same pair, wouldn't be so bad. With my memory I'd never miss 'em. But one. Gets lost. Leaving me with an odd sock.<br /><br />I finally got smart. I only buy white socks and black socks now. And cheap socks at that.

Milt...I think the Milt Kovik solution is the best. Milt is series character created by Susan Rogers Cooper. He bought only white athletic socks and black dress socks. If your socks are the same, it doesn't matter if you end up with odd numbers in your laundry. All Milt had to do was take a maximum of three socks out of his drawer and he had a pair. Milt also bought only white or blue oxford cloth shirts. For him, dressing was a snap.Mark Troyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10746027017657987261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-82305705838704971192009-05-18T12:12:00.000-05:002009-05-18T12:12:00.000-05:00We have a whole nation called "the lost sock tribe...We have a whole nation called "the lost sock tribe" which live in a box in our bedroom. My wife hates doing socks so that trying to match up pairs is my job. I mean I can understand white socks which all look the same but pairs of patterned or pictured socks how can they go missing? Then I look into my children's bedrooms and know the answer.<br /><br />BarryAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14606924722814682221noreply@blogger.com
