Re: panic attack!

 

I tend to mark my field gear with bright red or pink colors for this reason. It's too easy to set something down, and if it's not bright, never find it again. 
Good news is that you did find your tweezers!

It was a lovely day today in Cincinnati with temps hitting the mid 80's, so of course there were new iris flowers to pollinate.  By the time I got to my 3rd flower I had LOST my tweezers!!!  I was *furious* with myself for being absent minded and losing track.  Nor did it help that I kept finding ticks on me every few minutes.  (And now I didn't have tweezers to pick them off!)

Luckily this story has a happy ending.  It took me 30 minutes to track them down & I promptly attached an 18" long bright red ribbon to them.

Losing your only tweezers:  a hybridizers nightmare.  LOL
