To sell my DD on eBay

[Thebluedog]

Horrid divorce, finally got the paperwork through today to sign - woo hoo

I sign, put in the prepaid envelope and leave on the side. This is quite a moment for me and something that's been way too long coming .

Two hours later i see then envelope, opened on the stairs. DD, 3 years old, has opened, and can't remember where she's put the papers

Turned the house upside down.. WTF, I live in a tiny house, where the hell has she put 12 pages of A4 paper - arghhhhhhh!!!

Do they have a parents version of childline!!

you lot have really cheered me up.. That and several glasses of wine.

I'm thinking they won't be anywhere over 2 foot - the search continued

Behind or under the fridge here. Or as others - back out the letterbox

Poor you! When I got my divorce papers I guarded them with my life but dd still managed to scribble on them . Just breath and shake ask your daughter again where are the FUCKING papers

This thread takes me back.

Under any mats?
Under any sideboards / bookcases etc, you think they won't fit but they do!
Under sofa or sofa cushions

Good luck!

I eventually found my debit card 5 years later when we ripped out and gutted spruced up the kitchen. Perhaps dismantle your entire house with a chisel do some light spring cleaning?

Do you have a ride on toy? Or any other seat with a lid?

A regular conversation in our house is:

"Try inside the pirate ship"
"Got it"

In the bin/ recycling bin?

ATruth, is it sad or comforting that I knew exactly which pirate ship you were talking about?

Assuming they are under 2 foot may be an error. I had a climber, she used to pile cushions and steps and toy ironing boards to get where she wanted to be. Try shelves on the bookcase even you struggle to reach!

Under doormats, posted the wrong way through letterboxes, and eeek, the gaps in between floor boards. I hope it's not the latter...

I used to put everything in the freezer when I was little. Or bury it in the garden. Under the sofa. God I was a little shit.

I had a climber too. She used to take keys and put them in pots on shelves out of my reach. I accused DH of doing it fir ages before I caught her climbing up the shelves one day!

Yanbu but unfortunately the market is saturated

under sofa, behind sofa, somewhere sofa related???

In any 'ride on' car, tortoise, centipede etc with lift up seats. Found my passport in there...after I had missed my flight ..she's 19 now and went travelling in S.E Asia today (was sore tempted to get her back..)

Any luck OP?

(I mean with finding your papers, not with your selling success on eBay )

Under her pillow/your pillow? She thinks Tooth Fairy will deliver it faster for you

I would sell her - just for whatever you can get and use it to buy wine.
If you have another one you could do a BOGOF

I'd try through the letterbox too. My DS (2.5) posted 2 x £10 notes out of ours last weekend!!

We only found them hours later as they got blown behind a massive flowerpot on the porch!!

Are you thinking of bidding on her?

Well I have some irritating paperwork I need shot of and a chimney so it could be a win win

Laundry basket, behind the sofa and radiators are favourites here. Along with any bags and the bin.

A prayer to St Anthony - the patron saint of lost and missing items? Look up the prayer on the internet. It works for me (I'm not massively religious either! )

NotSayingImBatman You've found real treasures there too then?

Washing machine was a favourite. Spent hours trying to find DS shoes once when he was 3
