Thats what my friend calls it, (someone to keep track of your stuff for you)
Basically someone to follow you around picking up the stuff you forget and leave behind? Locating everything you have misplaced ? Picking up the stuff you drop as you go through the day and dont notice that you did? Like your gloves? your shopping list? etc? :-)

No I hate housekeeping. I find it easer to keep it clean than to clean it. If you drop it, picket it up. One thing takes a minute. several an hour. If you use it, clean it. Much easier to get the soft gunk off than the dried on stuff. See dust, dust it get the rest when it shows. Have one set of sheets and a weeks worth of socks and under-ware. Use them wash them use them. Batchelors remedy for a clean house.

I did this week. I left my umbrella in a shopping cart. Luckily I retrieved it yesterday. I lost my library card. Fortunately everything is by computer for checkout, etc. so I'm okay there. I don't want to memorize a new number. Discovered this morning that I had been driving my car around since yesterday with the gas cap on the trunk. By some miracle it was still there even after driving all morning. Also, left the car window open a small amount over the weekend. It rained but no damage done.
I guess you could say I could use a keeper. It would be a full time job with low pay.

Yeah, sometimes I do. I'm forever putting something somewhere so I'll know where it's at, then forgetting where I put it. lol I'll be getting ready to go to the store then forget or misplace my list or get everything but the one item I really needed. I think a lot of my problem is I get in a hurry and try to do to many things at once. Or I start one thing and then stop and start on something else I noticed needs done.

I need a keeper to walk behind my husband and son too. They cant put anything back or throw anything away. Dirty clothes always make it next to the basket never inside. Toilet seat always left up. OR down and dribbled on. Wet towels on the floor. Toothpaste in the sink and tube squeezed in the middle and cap off. No wonder I am so tired at night. whew

No, I do not need a keeper, but I have several teenagers at this community center I volunteer for that rely upon me to keep track of their stuff!

I was thinking about attaching a vacuum cleaner to my butt so it can pick up stuff I keep dropping! Yesterday, I locked up my house, walked to Maries, checked my purse, NO KEYS! Walked back home, broke into my house through the window, traipsed back over there to let Brian in. I lose hair brushes, lighters, keys, sometimes leave them in the front door...overnight. I would lose my butt if it wasn't attached too.
I need a keeper for sure

I'm pretty good at keeping track of my stuff. Hubby needs a keeper, but he wouldn't listen to one.

I am disabled and have a son who takes care of me. He does most of the cooking and shopping. BUT, he is the one who is always losing his keys and wallet. Luckily I can manage to help him find them. I don't know what he'd do if I were completely bedridden. LOL

Even had one on my steering wheel 2 weeks ago that said
"Buy Gas". Hey! it works.
