The case of the missing soap
How can soap disappear? I mean an entire container of Bath and Body Works hand soap from the bathroom. One day it’s there and then POOF, it’s gone. No one knows where it went. Did a soap burglar sneak in and take our soap? My bet is on the shifty neighbor next door. We feel very confident that he “found” our kitchen cabinets when our house was being built (we saw them in his garage a month later) but ours had to be reordered because they went “missing”. AND, we happen to know his house is currently being foreclosed (he told us) AND he’s borrowing our electricity because his has been turned off. Maybe he ran out of soap along with electricity. Yep, that’s my bet. But still, I must perform due diligence. Would hate to accuse the false party.
I’ve looked everywhere.
Mom Asks – Dad: Where is the bathroom soap:? Dad “I don’t know”
Mom Asks – Son 1: Where is the bathroom soap? Son 1 “How should I know?”
Mom Asks (aka Aunt Nancy) – Daughter on Loan: Where is the bathroom soap, it was there when you cleaned the bathroom. Daughter ” It’s on the counter.”
Mom “Ummmmm, nope, I wouldn’t be asking you if it were there.”
Mom Asks – Son 2, “Where is the bathroom soap?” Son 2 “I don’t know, maybe Nathan took it.”
Mom Asks “Nathan, Where is the bathroom soap?” Nathan “It’s upstairs.” Mom “Where Upstairs?” Nathan “Upstairs”
Ok, so Nathan’s look and answer lead me to believe that he Might have knowledge of said missing soap. I look upstairs…. nope all of the bathrooms up there have their appointed soap and no extra bottles. I look in his room. I look in all of his favorite hiding places… in end table drawers, his play kitchen, the china cabinet. No soap.
I confess, I’ve become a bit obsessed by this case of missing soap. Yes I have more (and have one in there now) but I want to know where the original is! Where did it go? How could it have just disappeared? I may need to call in professionals (detectives or psychiatrists, one of the two).
Why is this blog worthy? I have no idea but since I’ve lost most of my commenters (but not Suzen, thank you!) during my blogging hiatus, I figure I can blog about whatever I want until they come back! hehehehehe
In the meantime, I’m still hunting for that dern missing soap!
It was empty and is in the trash? Or, it is under the sink, under the rag used for cleaning the sink, or, it fell in the toilet and soon your toilet will be flushing all over the floor? Have fun! lol
That is a very good question. Just yesterday I asked the same thing only for the entire bulk pack of dove soap bars I’d brought home. Found all of them in boys’ bathtub. Wet and with the soggy boxes with them. I wish you better luck!
I would imagine your bar of soap is in the same place that my camera’s memory card and my favorite pen are. Things seem to disappear into thin air around here too!!!
Helene´s last blog ..Apparently, I’ve missed the memo…yet again
Mine also disappears…but I know that usually, my kiddos use it as bubble bath in the kitchen sink. It usually keeps them quiet for many minutes on end. I figure that $3 down the drain for the B & BW soap isn’t a huge loss compared to the peace and quiet that I enjoy while they’re playing!!!
Robin´s last blog ..in the waiting room…
You haven’t lost all of us!! I’m still here too.
Did all those things with your neighbor really happen? Stealing your electricity? Oh my! How does something like that even work?
