Just wondering where is the weirdest place you have found a sharp. Hubby just found one in the dryer, looks like it was mixed in with the clothes. lol
i found one in a bag of flour once... no idea how it got there
all ours go immediately into a plastic laundry soap container on top of the fridge. With my boys I cant leave anything of hers to chance. lol even tho they are as tall as me and can reach just about everything I can. I also bend all my needles with the caps back on so they cant be reused.
Funny question! I don't have any really strange ones, but I find lancets in our bed and in the driver's seat of the car from time to time. No matter how careful you are, the little things seem to have a mind of their own!
i found a used syringe in my pencil case at school once
I have issues with used test strips they are all over the place.
Dont even get me started on test strips they are all over my house and my van. Talk about a love hate relationship.
I have yet to find a used syringe but those damn pen needles like to get away from me, I think they are in cahoots with the lancets since they are the same size.
Found test strips in a DVD player once.
I found a test strip on the floor of the band room at my school once, but I think it had stuck to my shirt or something because I have no idea how it managed to get in a corner of the room where I happened to be when I found it.
one time at my office I picked up my son's bag (he comes with me sometimes) and a used pen needle went rolling onto the floor (i have no idea from where exactly as we always put them right into the sharps container, or so i thought) and another day a co-worker spotted a test strip on the bottom of my shoe and it was the end of the day and ezekiel was in school so it must have been there all afternoon. Another co-worker has a type 1 son also so we often see test strips in our parking lot (whose we don't really know as we use the same ones-lol.
The other dayy i found a bunch of lancets in my shoes. I have no clue how they got there. As for strips i have found them in printers, laptops, everywhere one day i had one stuck to my shirt and my friend eventually told me.

I've never had unexplained sharps showing up places, but test strips are everywhere.
Diabetes haiku- (a poem for Jessica)
Test strips everywhere
Signs of very good habits
And excellent care.
I once found a sharp in A-flat minor! (*snort*)

omg... lol
I'm pretty sure if the police were looking for me, all they had to do was fallow the trail of test strips I seem to leave behind.

lol I love it and its so true!
Haven't found a sharp in a strange place yet, but I've found a few test strips in my dog's waste in the yard. That's gross and weird!
The poem is awesome and oh so true. And the music joke brought a smile to my face, which has been much needed. :D
