Cleaner found my toy - need to emigrate

Am I being unreasonable to go to Alaska, or would even further be more appropriate? Would have to be English speaking, but i would be sending for the DCs when the dust settles so i can’t afford Australia. Unless they go overland… Hmm.

DCs at a sleepover last night. A night alone meant the first time I could have some me time in six loooooong weeks of summer holiday. So obviously I used my rabbit thruster three times in 10 hours discerningly checked to see if my discreet adult toy was still working in case it were ever to be called upon. Unfortunately I left it on the bedside table because I was getting the last one in casually strolling out to pick the DCs up. The cleaner has been, and has placed it in a drawer. The cleaner who I know from the school playground and to whom I have never said a word other than to discuss cleaning and make small talk.

So the question is, is there an Air Alaska or should I go via American / United and change at their hubs? I will check for responses whilst packing. Thanks.

Argentina? Or a really really long worldwide cruise?
my male friend, when we were late teens, was having some me time, headphones on, in his bedroom at home.
when opened his eyes when all done, his mum had left him a cup of tea on the bedside table 😂😳

I think you should just thank her for being so meticulous at her job 😜

Babysitting years ago I was asked to sit on the parent’s bed to read a story to the girls who slept in there.
One opened the drawer to get a book and pulled out a silk scarf which promptly unrolled in her hand and the longest, thickest dildo plopped on the floor..my jaw hit the ground! I’m no prude and had a collection myself but this thing..jeez it would have come up out of her throat I swear!!
Thank god there was a scarf to carefully pick it up and chuck it back in 😀

Sorry, OP… but I am howling at this 😂😂😂 you should write for a living!

I feel your embarrassment and I’m cringing for you …

Your sense of humour will get you through, I’m sure 😂😂

@redalex261 @WitchyBits , these cracked me up. Somehow the animals excited about their new found toys makes it funnier.

Brazen it out - ask the cleaner whether she used anything on it when she was cleaning, as you've noticed a pleasing difference in the tingle since last time.

Or put it somewhere different for her to find every time she comes. By the bath, behind the sofa cushions, next to your computer keyboard etc.

Ahh it would be like being haunted by an evil vibrator 😂

Im off to cuba in 4 days i can pop you in my case.

My hubby bought me an enormous butt plug as a joke for my 60th birthday - I mean this thing is HUGE! Having unwrapped my pressies that morning, was still in the living room when cleaner arrived. She asked what it was. Hubby (with naughty look on his face) said 'ask the missus' I casually remarked that it was a door stop. She said 'oh it looks like a huge but plug to me' 😂

May I suggest you emigrate to Dildo in Newfoundland and Labrador, (it only has a population of about 200 so very unlikely you will ever bump into anyone you know.)

Good shout! 😂 Is that the place all people emigrate to after this sort of embarrassing encounter?

Im guessing each and every one of those 200 people have gone there to hide out following their own sex-toy related incident, and the entire population just shuffle around town red-faced, head down, unable to look anyone in the eye. Seems like OP would fit right in (plus a few others in this thread too, by the sound of it! 😅)

AInightingale · 23/08/2024 16:54

You do all realise that if you go out and get hit by the number 47 bus, your next of kin will find these items anyway when they're going through your personal effects. (Except you'll be dead anyway and it won't matter so much.)

Yozzer87 · 23/08/2024 16:55

Don't worry about it. You're an adult woman, you masturbate as do the vast majority of people. Loads of women have toys, there is a huge market for them and there are some amazing ones. If I was the cleaner, though I would have left it where it was.

My mum's made me promise to go in and get rid of hers and also to clear her kindle library ,she's 68 😂

So monotonous you had to make a comment ? Everyone else is enjoying these so just scroll on by.

tribalmango · 23/08/2024 16:58

Why can't you play with your rabbit when the kids are asleep or otherwise occupied? Your bedroom is private, isn't it?

I actually think it would be more professional to have just left it.

Anyway, I do see the funny side, OP.

I have a night to myself tomorrow (lone parent to 15 yo) so I will make sure I tidy my toys away. 🐰

Appledoughnut · 23/08/2024 16:59

This is not a thing I would give a single shit about.

This is just so funny! It reminds me of an incident some years ago. I was recently divorced, and staying in a hotel in Bath alone to visit friends. Of course, I had my trusty rabbit with me. I spread out all my belongings in the bedroom/bathroom whilst I was there and enjoyed my stay. When I was almost home (4 hour drive), I realised I had left my entire bag of toiletries, and said rabbit, strewn across the bathroom. I had to phone the hotel, who very kindly packed it all up and posted it back to me. I was mortified! Thank goodness I didn't have to see them in person!

I do often think about what @AInightingale said about next of kin clearing out my bedside drawer. Never mind being hit by a bus, but is there a stage in one's life when we decide we no longer need them and throw them away?? Or will my adult children/grandchildren one day find them in Granny's drawer?!

RosieFlamingo · 23/08/2024 17:06

Years ago me and dm were helping a friend move house. Dm was carrying a large box down the garden path when the bottom fell out. The look of shock and then embarrassment on friends face as an avalanche of toys rained down on the path and spread across the garden. I've never seen someone move so fast as she sprinted from the front door and scrabbled to pick them all up.

Please, mods, this has to go in Mumsnet Classics. And possibly win the prize for the most quickly nominated thread!

Oh come on, really?

Have you considered that I could be your cleaner, being professional it is NEVER discussed ,although I would comment I have one even better than yours.
