We did not stop anywhere along the sidewalk and got right in the van. When we arrived at the store, she had no shoes. I figured she took them off in the van. No, they were not in the van. We retraced our steps and they were not between the parking lot and Chick Hatchershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12193923417129870887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-52896468850832050112011-01-11T22:38:09.896-05:002011-01-11T22:38:09.896-05:00Don't guess this lost coat incident happened b...Don't guess this lost coat incident happened back when we had that fluke day of 50+ temps?

She left about a week before he did, so he was left to his own devices for an entire week. When I went to check on the house, I found dishes with food in the sink, a dishwasher full of dirty Jennifer Magreevyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05245228845633935241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-48324237714532168842011-01-11T22:04:57.303-05:002011-01-11T22:04:57.303-05:00hahahahaha!

Not sure how long they had been there. Then the next school year he comes home one afternoon w/out his glasses. I ask where they are & he puts them on & one whole ear piece is totally gone.

Had it before I walked home from school, as I walked home it disappeared.<br /><br />DO NOT discount it was aliens with their stupid beaming technology. I know that's what happened to my shoe. Maybe that's what happened to his jacket.<br /><br />V1ncehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16965823224765071292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-52777797898966209622011-01-11T09:35:39.243-05:002011-01-11T09:35:39.243-05:00Must be the name, my Clayton is the same way!Must be the name, my Clayton is the same way!Kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07497557740894791524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-48268554695210225282011-01-11T09:23:19.122-05:002011-01-11T09:23:19.122-05:00You always make me laugh, I just love reading your...You always make me laugh, I just love reading your blog! =)Stefaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12702908185802361522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-23031969582657894412011-01-11T08:47:02.167-05:002011-01-11T08:47:02.167-05:00I feel your pain.
