lovetobehome Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I spent awhile looking for this apologia tutorial cd on here, used, it goes for $100+ new. I finally found it, bought it, put it in my computer once, and I have misplaced it! I am going nuts looking for it! I spent almost the whole day tearing the house apart, and no luck. Just venting. This sort of thing really gets to me. I know *I* am the one who misplaced it. I have NO memory of where I put it. I am worried it may have slipped its way into a package as I have just sent out a lot of stuff. Anyway, just frustrated. Venting. Grr.....

KidsHappen Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I lost a Math-U-See pre-algebra CD four years ago now and I have never found it. I can't imagine what happened to it but it still bugs me when I think about it. Hope you have better luck finding your CD than I did.

clarkacademy Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 take the drawers out of your desk. A while back I couldn't find the little ones birtch certificate and found it when one of the drawers had been opened and my son spilled a rootbeer cup in it. Of course it fizzed everywhere and we live in FL so I don't want ants. Took the drawers out to wash the desk wall behind them sure enough there was the birth certificate!

Teachin'Mine Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Talk to St. Anthony. He's amazing. :) Praying you find it. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Did you check the computer? Sometimes when I have lost a disc, it is still in the computer. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetobehome Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Thank you for suggestions...I am praying! I tried the computer. The case is missing, too, so I believe I took it out and put it SOMEWHERE! I have moved so much stuff in this house in the last couple weeks, everything has moved. Last place I saw it was around the laptop in the living room, where I also packed my packages. I wouldn't really have sent it off to someone by mistake, would I have?

JudoMom Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 If that's a possibility, I would contact everyone I sent a package to and let them know that you'd like it back if it ended up in their package, and that you'd happily send them shipping money and a few extra $ for their trouble. I do hope you find it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 If it makes you feel any better, I can't find my drivers license. The one year old snatched my wallet from the diaper bag while I was mixing bread dough. I found everything but my license, and I'm now pretty sure it made it through the slits in the air vent. :glare: Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetobehome Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Just took your suggestion, and emailed everyone I have sold to in the last few weeks....since I received the cd. Praying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadianmumof5 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Check the kid's DVDs.....I've often found my CDs in their DVD cases. Check every single one..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetobehome Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Did that once, but will go try again! THANK YOU ALL, it makes me feel better to have more ideas to work on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadianmumof5 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I'm gonna assume you have already asked the kids???? I know in our house - if anything is missing, 90% of the time my daughter knows just where it is. It is really weird now that I think about it.....she just seems to know where stuff is? Tell the kids "$5 for whoever finds it"......and watch how fast they will move to help you out :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetobehome Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Yep, checked all the cds again. Offered the kids money and staying up until midnight watching netflix movies....they haven't seen it, and are looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetobehome Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 Only thing I can figure out is that it got tossed out with the newspapers and magazines, as I had it in that area. I have obsessed over it long enough. Just posted another WTB ad for it. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadianmumof5 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 The day that the "new" CD arrives will be the day that you find the one that is currently lost. Always works out that way:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crafty Mathy Mom Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I hate losing things. It seems like I can find anything that anyone else loses, but if I lose something it's gone forever. Did you check in and around the Apologia book? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Inman Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Just commiserating ... i'm going on a road trip tomorrow and i can't find my mp3 broadcaster thingie... i have an audio book all loaded up on my mp3 player and it'll do us no good if i can't find it... Back to looking.... feel your pain and good luck!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetobehome Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 (edited) Well, let's see. I got the cd on June 3 or 4, then left for vacation on June 7. While I was away, my friend came over to borrow the Apologia stuff and other curriculum to see if she wanted to use them. She couldn't find the dvd, it wasn't with the other stuff. I got back on the 11th and have been looking ever since. The thing is, my house is organized pretty well and clean. WHERE COULD IT HAVE GONE? I had it near the table where we put mail and newspaper, so my fear is that as I was cleaning out those piles, it got stuck in the trash pile and the trash went out.

Tree House Academy Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I lost my youngest son's music CD from HOD about 3 mos ago and had to download the songs from amazon and pay 99 cents per song for them until we finished the guide. I finally found the CD after school was over for the year. It was a yellow CD and it was laying in the bottom of a basket matched up with the sun cut out on a cardboard space mobile! LOL Who would have EVER thought to look there?? Apparently it had been laying on the table when I picked up the mobile and it looked like the sun so I picked them up together. Totally weird! Hope you find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
