Impish Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 ARGHH! Princess lost a shoe the other day. Tore the house apart, no flipping idea where it went. We finally gave in and ended up buying her another pair, since we couldn't find the dang thing. Still hasn't turned up. And guess what? Go to send the Littles outside this am to burn some energy before starting school work, and guess what's missing? Yup. One of her new shoes. ARRRRGGGGHHHH! We have a small place. There's just not that many places it could darn well be...of course, if she put them on the shoe rack where it belonged, and as she was constantly reminded, it wouldn't be an issue. Two missing shoes in four days. I'm gonna lose my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Elf Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Is it the same foot? If not, send her out with mismatched shoes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 I'm starting to wonder if someone isn't pulling a 'prank' and hiding her flipping shoe. Kids have been informed that if its not found before Daddy gets home, all holy heck is going to break loose. I am NOT buying a 3rd pair of shoes. She can be in the house from now til winter boot buying time. Yeah, I'm that frustrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Girls' Mom Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Happens here too. We joke that one of my dds has a black hole under her bed. When that happens here once too often, we have a clean the house from top to bottom day. Shoe found? Great....keep cleaning. :lol: In fact, this evening that is likely to happen here due to a lost Wii nunchuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacie Leigh Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 I just bought DD 10.00 (ridiculous!) ballet tights and now that today is her first class, they are NOWHERE to be found. I've torn apart the entire house and car including closets and bags with no luck. I cannot express how aggravating losing things is for me. Number one pet peeve ever.

Impish Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 Interesting. When I informed Diva and Tazzie that I believed someone was 'pranking' and hiding Princess' shoe, and that everyone was going to be punished if it didn't show up...Diva went immediately to her room and 'found' it. Children have been informed that if anything more goes missing, Mommy's mind will as well, and life will become very unpleasant. Gah.

********* Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 A few years ago, dh took dss to the pharmacy around the corner. He came home wearing one shoe. :001_huh: Apparently, when he was getting back in the car, one of his sandals slipped off, and he didn't bother telling dh. We drove right back up there (it was literally around the corner), and his shoe was NO WHERE to be found. :001_huh: SO weird. And dss was like, 11 or so at the time. Why the boy didn't say something when they got in the car, I'll never know. :tongue_smilie: (Just a story to let you know you're not alone. :D) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Princess dislike her new shoes, and possibly think 'losing' one would mean another pair that she'd like better? Just and idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 Hmmm. Does Princess dislike her new shoes, and possibly think 'losing' one would mean another pair that she'd like better? Just and idea. Nope. They're pink. Princess adores pink. :tongue_smilie: I'm thinking Diva pulled this stunt, just to cause havoc. Its something she'd think is funny, to hide the shoe and watch ppl get frustrated. That she literally went directly to the shoe and found it when it was announced that she'd also be in trouble if it wasn't found just kinda confirmed my suspicion that the shoe had 'help' in getting lost. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elise1mds Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 My son does this with underwear. I'm reasonably convinced he's trying to see how long he can go commando without me noticing. Unfortunately for him, I count underwear when I do laundry. And then he has to do another load after he magically discovers where all his dirty underwear has been 'hiding.' :glare: Glad one shoe has been found.

swellmomma Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Hmm, or is brother trying to pull a prank on her. Check the freezer. Don't ask why I suggest that ;) Usually when we are missing 1 shoe here (and not from someone hiding it on purpose), it is in 1 of 4 places, in one of the kids rooms, in the bathroom, under the couch, or under the computer table.

Cheeky little monkey. Here I suspected the brother pulling a stunt not big sister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
