Mystery Solved

 From time to time, Aloma or I have misplaced our mobile phones and have frantically searched the house to find them.  We usually end up calling our own number and then tracking down the sound.

 Last week my phone was missing so I began the search.  I called my number, but I remembered the phone was on vibrate only.  I remember using the phone since I returned home the day before.  It had to be in the house.  I started the search looking at all of the normal places, e.g., my desk, bathroom, kitchen, charging station.  No luck.  Then I started a deep search.  I removed pillows from chairs and sofas; I looked under chairs, sofas, tables, desks, etc.  Then I tore my office apart.  I removed books, looked in all of the drawers of my desk, and searched the floor.  Maybe it had fallen behind something.

 I was about to give up.  Then I had a thought.  I had scheduled my Toyota Corolla for service and got a folder out of the file cabinet to get the phone number.

 I retrieved the file.  Sure enough, I had filed my phone in the Toyota Corolla folder and had carefully placed the folder back in the file cabinet.
