I listened to a guy talk about people with ADD. Most people that have mild ADD have memory problems also but for some, they sub-consciously overcome that problem by finding places in the house to store things. For instance, I have one place in my house that I unload my pockets everyday when I get home. When I walk in the house, I don't do anything else till I've went to my spot and put my keys there. I've always known that I have a spotty memory but I've come up with my own ways to make sure that I don't lose stuff. But I also think losing your keys is more than simply memory loss. It's about not putting forth enough mental effort when you do set your keys down. When you walk into your house you are almost on cruise control. Everything is winding down and you don't really care about what's going on anymore. I would assume for most people simply taking the time to notice where you put your keys would be enough. I mean, besides the key to your house, it's the second most expensive key you own. Pay attention!
