Where the hell is my 4-foot level? How the hell can I lose a 4-foot level? I can't even blame it on my son this time!

I hate it when I can't find a tool I want to use.

Could swear I have at least 3 phillips-head screwdrivers... somewhere!

I know... cool story.

I used to be like this til I made a conscious effort to be more organized. Everything has a place and it makes life a lot easier. I used to go to the store and buy wire strippers or tape measures etc,etc.. over and over again b/c I forgot where I left it.

I'm pretty good about putting tools back and have a nice tool box to help and keep screw drivers in a drawer in the kitchen. Still it seems something always gets "lost".

My grandpa taught me early that organizing your tools and taking care of them will pay off in the future.
I just bought a new 378 pieces (?) Craftsmen set of tools and a metal tool case. I still have my original set of 64 Craftsmen from 1965 when I turned 16 years old he bought me for my first car. </SPAN>

There is a Ford in the stable. :D That's not my tools, just a pic offline for an example. I have the whole length of one side of my garage filled with pegboard for hanging my tools.
