ktgrok Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I think? Last night, my nearly 100 pound hound dog came walking into the bedroom wearing a (costume, foam) medieval breastplate. All the kids were asleep. Husband swears he didn't put it on the dog. I questioned everyone that lives here. No one has any idea how it got on him. (It should have been in the costume box in the closet) Then today, I went to get my hair cut and as I'm digging in my purse for my wallet find $50 in crisp new bills in my purse, loose. I remembered that I'd asked DH to pick up cash the next time he was at the ATM, so assumed he put it there. But no. I did have my purse at youth group last night, so theoretically someone could have put money in it then - but why? I asked the leader if anyone was missing any money, and she said no one had mentioned anything. Then I thought, well, the person we cat sit for might have put it in there - but remembered that I was already at the hair cut place when he came by to get his cat. I did let another friend keep frozen rats in my freezer while their power was out, and I suppose they could have stuck it in there when they came to retrieve them, but $50 is pretty excessive for letting someone stuck something in my freezer - even rats - and they had already brought us a bag of avocados from their tree. So I really don't think it was them. So...poltergeist? 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terabith Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Oooohhh.....maybe that's what stole all of my husband's pants. Like, we all got covid (like 3 weeks ago at this point), and when he emerged from disease and wanted to wear non sweat pants pants, he discovered that they're all missing. It's also possible he did laundry in a feverish state and did something weird with them, but we've looked EVERYWHERE. I'm half expecting a new, badly knitted sweatshirt to pop up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Tiggywinkle Again Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I mean it sounds like a friendly, generous, costume loving poltergeist… 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjzimmer1 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 If storing frozen rats was the source of the money, then you earned every penny and then some. I promise you, I wouldn't have done it for that price. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katy Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 This is even better than @Terabith’s mystery sequins. I’m guessing it’s your oldest, or maybe all your kids together, trying to delight you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drama Llama Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Maybe it's the ghosts of the frozen rats. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klmama Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 None of the people you've talked with have short-term memory loss, right? Given that, I would suspect your dh is playing with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a generator and had our freezer plugged in, and we are weird enough to ask that kind of favor of, lol. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Blue Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 This is very intriguing, and there has to be some explanation. However, I’m also very perplexed by the missing pants of Terabith’s Dh. 👖👖👖 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen rats are expensive (about $8 each at the pet store for the size Pinkie Py(thon) eats. And they've also been harder to get (a lot of breeders stopped breeding snakes during 2020-2021, so a lot of feeder breeders cut back, too). If he'd just done a bulk order, you probably saved him well over $50. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartlikealion Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I feel like your family is pranking you and no one will fess up. I wonder if it will get weirder leading up to Halloween then a big reveal. At least it wasn't $50 missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
