FOUND IT!Don't know how, but I've lost my SD card and reader

[ughwhatname]

I can easily replace the reader, but what type of card do I need to purchase to replace it?

I'm so frustrated. I downloaded my data this morning, then put the card and reader in my pocket. I haven't changed clothes, nor left the house, yet they have vanished. Just two hours later, I couldn't find them anywhere. Not in my pocket, and I've gone so far as to look under furniture, etc. Very frustrated by this.

No one else is home but my dog, and she's not ever eaten or taken anything, so the chance she's done something with it is nearly zero. I've searched everywhere I've been today... well other than where the darn thing could have gone.

Any regular SD card will work. Avoid the high-density cards.

I am constantly hiding stuff from myself. You can get an sd card at walmart. They are pretty cheap now. You will find it as soon as you get another one.

I'm hoping it will materialize tomorrow. Maybe its hiding in plain sight, but three or four runs through the house has not produced it. I even checked the trash!

You probably put it some place safe so you wouldn't lose it.

Go outside; and then come back in again, pretending you just got back from buying a new card.
Look where you would lay the new one down, is it there?
I have found so many things within minutes of purchasing a replacement.

When it happens to me it's laying right out in plain site when I eventually find it.

It has happened before, and I thought surely I'd figure out that super safe place I put it. My normal routine includes walking back into the bedroom and putting the SD card back in the machine. I obviously didn't follow my normal M-F routine, and have no idea what I did to outsmart myself.

So far this morning, haven't seen it yet.

I did that a few weeks ago.... found it in the fridge I am guessing I put it in there when I went for the milk to put on my cereal.

While you're looking, keep an eye out for my $1 pair of Target reading glasses that
vanished on me.

I'm afraid I've done something like that, and after reading your message, I checked in the frig, and its not there either.

Step back, turn around, hold something about the same size in your hand
and let your subconscious find a safe place for it. Don't think too hard.
Try not to think at all. (I find this part remarkably easy)

The only type of card I could find was an "SDHC" card. Will that work? Do I need to do anything to it other than putting it in the machine to download data?

Of course, going on the theory that once I walk in the door with it, I'll find the missing one, I haven't opened it yet...

I bought this one when my original started acting flaky:

Works fine. Loads faster into ResScan than the one that came with my S9.

First you have to understand that there are many ways to find lost items using intuitive abilities. If one way doesn’t work, try another one.

Pendulum Technique
Get a pendulum. You can buy one online or from a new age store, or you can make a simple one using some thread and a bolt so that the bolt is hanging at the end of the thread. Tell the universe what direction you want to be “yes” and what direction will be “no.” You can choose clockwise or counter clockwise, or you can do horizontal vs. vertical lines. Sit quietly, put your elbow on the table to steady your arm, hold the top of the pendulum, and start asking “yes-no” questions. “Is my cell phone in the house?” “Is it in my bedroom.” Keep playing until you find it. If your subconscious mind doesn’t know where the item is, you probably won’t find it using a pendulum.

Use Clairsentience
If your primary psychic modality is clairsentience, which means clear-feeling, start walking around the area where you think you probably lost your precious item and try to feel a tug in your midsection pulling you in the direction of your lost item. Or you might feel a hot or cold sensation telling you if you’re near or far, respectively. You might feel a tingling sensation in your hands when you get close. Don’t use your logic. Feel for the tugging, temperature, or tingle. If the item is in the area you’re searching, you could easily find it using this technique.

Use Clairaudience
If your primary psychic modality is clairaudience, which means clear-hearing, sit quietly, get meditative, and say in your mind, “Cell phone, where are you?” Listen for the answer. Again, you’re going to have to push your logic away. If you could have found it with logic, you wouldn’t need to find it with intuition.

Use Clairvoyance
If your primary psychic modality is clairvoyance, which means clear-seeing, sit quietly, get meditative, and ask your item where it is. Then allow an image to form in your mind’s eye. Maybe you’ll see a movie play out in your mind. Maybe you’ll just see it lying inside your couch cushion. Maybe you’ll get a symbol or metaphor that must be figured out.

Use Claircognizance
If your primary psychic modality is claircognizance, which means clear-knowing, then turn off your rational mind completely and simply walk to where your item is, with confidence and assurance. Don’t even think about it, just go there. Yep, this one’s hard if you’re not a gifted claircognizant.

Ask Your Guides
If you’ve learned how to communicate with your guides, then get meditative and go talk to them. Ask them where your item is. They might tell you outright, or they might tell you why you lost it, and they might tell you that you’ll never see it again because finding it is not in your best interest. I hope you’ve sent some gratitude to your guides recently. Maybe they’re holding your Blackberry hostage.

Ask the Dream Master
Ask the guy who lives in your ceiling and sends you those lovely Angelina/Brad dreams if he’d be willing to show you where you lost your item. He’s often more accommodating than the guides. If you’re not good at remembering your dreams, this probably won’t work too well for you.

Ask Your Future Self
You’ve got a past self – he’s the dumb-dumb who lost the item in the first place – so why not ask your future self where you ended up finding it. I love this technique. Sit quietly and get meditative. Meet your future self in your mind’s eye and have a conversation with him. He might say, “Oh that? Yeah we finally remembered we loaned it to Cathy and forgot to get it back.” Or he might say, “Oh that? Yeah, we put the ring on the side of the counter and it fell right into the sink. Took us an hour to fish it out and the plumber charged us $100. And by the way, don’t drink so much next Saturday, that’s gonna be one hell of a hangover!”

If At First You Don’t Succeed, Try Try Again
This takes practice and skill. If you’re not used to divining locations out of thin air, cut yourself some slack if you fail to find your object the first time. Keep working at it. You will get better over time. If you’re too emotionally attached to finding this object, that alone can block your success.
