Of all the things I've lost....
Tuesday, February 26, 2008 at 4:06PM
I have, stashed in a little wooden box, sticky notes that my friends left on my windshield in high school.

Oh shit! Say it isn't so. That. Sucks.

Oops. The good news is that they can be replaced. It might cost you, but it is possible.
My bet is that you did the same thing with them as I do with all of my important items. Put them in such a safe spot that you'll never find them again.
I lost my own passport but found it in a totally weird spot (between some books on my bookshelf) so hopefully you find your papers somewhere weird like that, too!

ours are in a drawer in the bathroom...how is that for security?
ps--I have a sucker stick that I shared with some hot guy in the 8th grade!!
son of a bitch. they're not in the freezer, are they? whenever i lose something, it ends up in mine.

ACK!!!!
I lost mine in our move for 6 months and it seems like everyone needed the information in them RIGHT then!
I eventually found them, but what a worry.

That sucks. That really, really sucks. Try looking in your carry-on bag from your last trip south of the border. That's always where I find that sort of thing.
Good luck!

For lack of creativity.. that really does suck. I hope you find them soon..

You likely misplaced them somewhere during the last move. When I lose things it's always in the dumbest place.
Hope you find them as it will be expensive to replace all of those.

Serious bummer. Son's birth certificate was right where LatteMommy suggested -- in the carry on, but as soon as I finally found it there, I promptly lost it again, so I'm going to have to get new ones for both of them (yes, I can't find Daughter's either). One of these days I'll post a BEFORE(and hopefully AFTER) photo of my office which will explain everything. You don't want my advice on where to find these things, as the answer is in the bottom of a pile next to the empty fishtank. But you do have my sympathy. :)

I'm still looking for the vacuum cleaner bags I bought, opened, used one from the package of 4, and stored "someplace that makes sense for once."

maybe your papers were in my hubbys grandmothers basement...along with all my stuff...and, she threw it out? dunno...just an idea!
The passports suck. Call the hospital where they were born, and replacement birth certificates can be issued.
(I got mine replaced - born in 1971, in a hospital in Chicago that BURNED DOWN WITH ALL RECORDS LOST - it's possible, I tell you!)

THANK YOU for sharing. I cannot find my husband's or my son's. No big deal, except that I need my son's to enroll him in school for THE FIRST TIME. Soon. Crap.
Glad I'm not the only one.
If you gotta travel, just write their names on a few of those blank sugar packets and wear a low-cut shirt, customs'll never notice ;)

I guess you need a bigger 'little wooden box'. I am sure those papers are safe wherever they are. I mean, it isn't like you sold them, burned them for heat, or drew a map on the back of them that you promptly gave out to a stranger looking for Wal-Mart. Right?

I can't even relate to this, but I always find missing essentials in the weirdest places. Trying thinking outside the box.... I know zero help, sorry.
one of the great mysteries of life.

I'm sure they will turn up in some odd place. Like behind the refrigerator. Hmm, maybe that's where that book went.....Excuse me, gotta go find a book.

My ex lost LM's out of the lockbox - it just disappeared - WHATEVER...
I just paid $150 to get his birth cert expediated so I could get him registered for K.
I'm still pissed about it.
But I'm sure all of your's will turn up - check the undie drawer that's a good place to hide things... ;)

Hmmm....I don't know. I have shit like that that I have saved. When I found out I was pregnant I invested in a file storage thingy and have all important documents in there. I think I need another one!!
Found you via TopMomma!!

Well, if you're anything like me, you stored them somewhere for safe-keeping then can't remember where that safe-place is.

At least you didn't lose the kids. Don't worry though; you are guaranteed to find the passports.....the day AFTER you pay to replace them. Good luck, WiMSC!

I am glad to stumble upon this blog. For some time, I have been trying to create one something like this as well, however I am not having the know-how on how to do it. Tell me about this “WordPress” all about? Is it hard to learn? Do I have to be an expert in computers to make a blog? I would like to design a simple blog for my learn english writing for students website. Can a blog be meshed into a present website?
