A Missing Phone

Little Kat had to go to scouts today. He hurried through his homework and skipped dinner. The plan was for Mamma Kat to drive him. But Mamma Kat had her own homework to do. So I was going to drive Little Kat. I would drop him off. He would call us with his cell phone when he needed a ride back. There was only one problem with this scheme - Little Kat lost his phone.

We have gone through this trouble before. Our new policy is that Little Kat's phone is either in his pocket, or on the charger. It was in neither. He checked all his pants and coat pockets. He also checked the car. No cell phone. We tried in vain to call his cell phone. It must have been turned off.

Little Kat ended up missing scouts tonight. That was too bad. But we needed to find that phone. About an hour later Little Kat said he found it. The thing had become stuck in one of the couches. Now we have a new rule. The phone has to be on a charger unless Little Kat is out with it.
