失物

出るが手間どる

deru ga temadoru / でるがてまどるIt will turn up, after some trouble

Also written as: 出るが手間取る

Meaning

The lost item turns up, but finding it takes real effort. The weight is on the searching rather than the waiting, so plan on checking several places over a few tries instead of expecting to find it in one go.

What to do today

Pick just two places to search today and leave the rest for tomorrow.

A word from the capybara

A bit of fuss is part of the charm of any search.
