Just blame your wife. Mine “moves” my stuff, buries it under her work and worst of all “tidies up”. She’s buried, moved and tidied up my keys, wallet, guitar picks (the most irritating one as everything in the house is wood and I use Fender medium picks), etc. so often that now I just have to say “have you seen my … .” and she’s rummaging through my pockets, under her work, the places she tidies stuff … in the hope of finding them before I do.
Edit: inside the vacuum cleaner? always the first place to look for anything that will fit up the hose.
