[blparent] my nightmare

[Veronica Smith]

Ok, have you ever thrown something away without actually looking and
touching it.  On Christmas eve I wanted the table to look it's best so
before Gab and I left to mass, I cleaned the table.  I told Gab to throw
away many grocery ads and a few other things like envelopes from Christmas
cards.  Welll, a couple of days later I asked my husband where he had put my
airline tickets to Vegas.  He said he had them on the kitchen table but they
were gone now.  I said, well then they should be right here in this bag.  I
had put all the important papers in a grocery bag and put it on the shelf.
They were not there.
If you think this story is not blind parent related, then you are wrong.  In
my haste to throw and clean the table,  Gab picked up something and said
this one says Mirage.  I automatically told her to throw it in the recycling
bin.  I thought it was a magazine from UNM that comes every month.  A print
magazine.  So she did as told.
Well.  I told my husband I did not see anything that said Soutwest and he
said it said Mirage.  My heart stopped.
So the next day we brought in the recycling bin and parked it by the front
door, the temp outside was 18.  I started crawling through each and every
paper and there they were at the very bottom.
I will never throw anything away without having it in my hands first.
Infact, I may never throw anything away again. (lol) V
