We’d never accuse you of having a “forgetfulness” problem. Still, we couldn’t help but notice that the locksmith is #6 on your cell’s speed dial. (And that mom is #8.)
Emergencies are one thing. But you need an intervention. The kind that keeps you from misplacing your keys in the first place.
Get yourself a 4 Bonfim key chain. Designed by Brazilian costume jewelers, they’re made of brightly colored ribbons and quirky good-luck charms, like horseshoes, four-leaf clovers, moneybags, and jars of real salt. The dangling trinkets come with a hook for easy clipping onto your purse or belt loop. (No one needs to know how practical they are.) Edgy aesthetic plus superstitious insurance? Your keys may just become your most coveted accessory.
You can now delete that locksmith’s number.
Moving mom up on the list remains your call.
