There’s a little corner of my sock drawer reserved for orphans. The twin usually shows up within a couple of weeks and I know where to find its mate..But then I also buy lots of socks exactly alike (all black or all white) so it’s probable that I’ve actually lost some.
No one has mentioned the “folded tee shirts”…or any other shirts…I hang them. No muss, no fuss…no wrinkles…faster, easier, no drawer space taken up, and it’s easier to pick which one hubby wants to wear!
For longer than I can remember I’ve been connecting the toes of my socks with a safety pin when I’m ready to put them into the laundry basket. They go through the washer and dryer fine with no need to sort them and I just toss them all in my sock drawer and remove the safety pin when I’m ready to wear them. There are commercial fasteners made for this but plain old safety pins work for me.
Himself grew uip in N Florida and went all the way through high school shoeless, not to mention sockless. Then complained that nobody makes shoes wide enough for his feet. Finally landed on New Balance 10EEEE when shoes are required.
I found “Sock Locks” a long time ago, and stocked up. I haven’t had to buy any in years, and have plenty of spares. I also stick to one kind and color of socks.
It’s amazing how nice you looked on that night,Your skirt was so short and your top was so tight.I bought you a drink and we danced on the floor,We pulled and you came back to mine for some more.
Your skirt ended up on the living room chairs,And your top and your bra, they came off on the stairs,And though you looked fit with your clothes on,Man I was a foolCos you look like crap when you wear nothing at all…

And many times, you still don’t find it. Some say that when we die, we get all our lost socks back. Beautiful thought, no?

And that’s strictly a plugger trait? Nah. No one wants to lose socks.

Two words: Dryer Sheets. I haven’t lost a single sock since I started using them years ago.
