Can anyone pick up something on some treasured "lost" items for me?

[Flying Dream Blues]

I have somehow misplaced (?) 3 things that are so important to me, that just thinking about it and writing this is making me anxious.

The two large photo albums that I made of the years my children were growing up are nowhere to be found. In addition, the one video tape I have of my kids, of my son's 1st birthday, has gone missing as well. They were in my house and were kept in a particular place. My daughter, now 24 was looking at them in the living room a month or so ago, and also watched the video not too long ago. She has no memory of putting them anywhere or taking them anywhere, so they should be in the house. I have become paranoid that someone else could have taken them.

I literally become sick when I think about never having them again. My son died 3 years ago so my photos are my lifeline to memories of him.

If anyone can help me with this, it would be so wonderful. If not, thanks anyway for allowing me the space to share this.

1. So sorry..

Know what it's like to have missing things. I have lost my Dad's college blanket somewhere along the way, through various moves. I loved that thing and slept with it as a child.

I use this site when I need to find things > http://www.affinity-numeroloby.com. The top free stuff has a link to do a number find. It has never failed. Sometimes you don't understand what it is saying. But eventually it works out just as described.

I'm mising some videos too, but believe someone must have taken them.
Do hope you find your stuff soon.

[Flying Dream Blues]

2. Thanks, votesomemore! I went to the site and can't quite

figure out which feature you mean for the number find. If you have a chance, could you let me know exactly which one you mean? Thanks, and I hope you find your things, too.
:hi:

3. have you tried dowsing

you just get a string put a weight on it, then make a map of likely places: like the rooms
of your house and then hold the weight above each area and see if you get an increase in
the swing, clockwise is positive and counterclockwise is negative.

[Flying Dream Blues]

5. That's a good idea! Thanks, MissWaverly.

[Why Syzygy]

9. eeks. Sorry.

I gave you the wrong site. This is it > http://decoz.com/LostObjects.php ~~ plus misspelled it! Call me d'oy.

I had a watch missing for some time. It said, close to bed clothing and near the floor. My dad's blanket was on the floor of the closet. I later found it in the pocket of a sweater hanging on the lower shelf. Right above Dad's blankie.

Earlier this summer I could not remember where I had put something. It said, it is in a remodel place and will be discovered by a workman. Weeks later my ex-bf called and told me he found it in his tool box, as he was doing remodel work.

After we moved, we could not find these certain work gizmos he has. I remembered some storage containers he had and asked if I could use them. When we went to get them, that's where his gizmos were! I think I left the blanket at a former roommate's house, but can't imagine why. Thought I got everything. Since she isn't available any more, I have no way of knowing. I thought it had been lost forever once before and it turned up in some stored items.

Send out some vibes to your cherished treasures. They will find their way back. I hope.
I'm going to go ask for the blanket now. And the videos which were one of a kind from a class I took. I can ask a friend who took the class to make a copy, but hate to bother her with that. Maybe I don't need them any more.
Unlike your situation. I believe you need them and will recover them.

edits: keep thinking of lost things ..
There was one move when I lost all my albums from the 70's. Had some great ones. I assume they fell of the moving truck. Also had found some really neat arrowheads in the attic of the old house and could never find those again. I still have one. I guess they were meant to be lost because someone left them behind in the attic. The albums, I can't explain.

Maybe your daughter needs to look around her house. She might have slipped them into her bag without thinking?

[Flying Dream Blues]

10. Wow. Look what I got!

Your stories were so impressive! I couldn't wait to get to the site and ask about my albums...

This is just unbelievable. I'm assuming most of the time you are directed to a place, not given a reason to think someone took it?


47 Lost Object number
More than one person is aware of the location of the object. One is a liar. Question your subordinates.



Well, I know my daughter is not a liar. My stepdaughter is a different matter, and that is who I was thinking of when I said I was paranoid that someone else took them. I would think "children" count as subordinates? Of course, if she does know about them, she would never tell. This is why I need to ask my guides and the universe to help me. I don't know who the other person could be, unless it is my stepson, who is not a liar. If he knows, he would probably tell if he could without implicating anyone.

Anyway, thanks SO much for the site, votesomemore...what a great find (so to speak!) I've really tried to let go of the angst and know that they will come back to me. I too believe I'm not supposed to lose them forever.

:hug:

on edit: I went back and asked about a couple of other things...I had some gift cards that went missing. It told me I was the victim of someone's greed or anger. Bingo. Pretty sure I know who took those. I asked about a pendant I lost (?) and it told me I pass by it every day and to keep my eyes open. I hope that turns up. But as you can see, these things all happened around the same time, so there have been a lot of losses this summer. During a summer visit. Hmmm.

[Why Syzygy]

11. Yeah, I would think children count.

Sounds like a lot going on there. That site is great. Can keep you tied up for days reading all about. Perhaps this situation will open a window for your step daughter to start being honest. Hope you keep us informed.

I got '54' for my dad's blanket. It's being moved around, but I'm sure to recover it. That makes me think even more my ex roommate has it.

I'm going to release it to the Universe too.

[Flying Dream Blues]

12. I really hope you find it.

It does sound like your roommate could have it. I'm really glad you are supposed to recover it; that's a comfort. Keep us posted on yours, too.

[Why Syzygy]

13. For your edit ..

wow. You pass by it every day .. sometimes these are just clues. Do you have any nicnac shelves?
That is really sad if your step daughter would take your things. But it could also mean that it's in your closet somewhere, or the bathroom. My first thought was that someone around you is wearing it concealed. There's this power trip thing, where possessing something that belongs to someone 'we' (loose term) want power over gives us some power. I think there's something to that. Why someone would take gift cards is beyond my reach of imagination.

How old are these stepchildren?

[Flying Dream Blues]

15. I think the pendant

could possibly have gotten lost, so I'll continue to look for it, esp. since it said I pass by it every day. I certainly try my hardest NOT to believe anyone (read: SD) took it or anything else, since this messes with my mind and gets in the way of what I try to be in her life.

The photo albums/video I think it's possible that my stepdaughter (age 20) could have hidden or taken (or G-d forbid, thrown away). She has a history of doing passive-aggressive things, and am almost sure she has taken some other things. She also has a history of lying to us. A sad and mixed up kid, I do feel sorry for her but it is a constant battle to overcome my self-protective defenses enough to try to have a relationship with her. When I have tried to get closer to her she has hurt me deeply just when I was starting to feel open to her, so I tend to withdraw and just be helpful and positive with her without going deeper.

The gift cards disappeared from my wallet just a few days after she and I discussed my needing to spend them, that maybe I could use one of them to help her buy some things for her room. (This is the one where the website said I was the victim of someone else's anger or greed.)

I think you are right on when you say that it can be a power thing. She definitely has the need for control and power; she feels threatened by me since her dad is her lifeline since her mom died, and really before that.

My stepson is 14, and has a much easier time of life. He and I have forged a solid and trusting relationship. I think there is real love developing there.

I really try to see all of this from a spiritual standpoint, letting go of my own hurt, but sometimes I am more successful than others. I can overlook a gift card or other such items, but the albums...well, it's much harder. Especially since, if it was her, the intention would be to hurt me, rather than an act of temptation in wanting something for herself.

Thanks for the invitation to share! Probably more than you wanted to know, but it helped me to write it. This is the kind of thing I can't discuss with my husband much, for obvious reasons.
:hug:

[Why Syzygy]

16. I didn't understand

that they were cash gift cards. It's really scary to have things disappear from a wallet. Please do take precautions to protect yourself.

I'm glad you got to share. Maybe put her on the prayer list here.

Happy hunting! :hug:

30. Do you have a pet?

Once I lost a ring and I was told it was in the house in a dark place. One day, I dropped half an avacado behind my fridge. When I moved the fridge I found the avacado and my ring. The only explanation I ever came up with for it's final reting place was that my cat had used the ring as a toy.

If you have a pet, maybe your pendant became a toy.

[I Have A Dream]

4. I'm so sorry, TTLG. Maybe it would help to ask your guides to help...

find them. (As cassiepriam recommended in the past.) I wish that I could think of something else to help you more.

:hug:

[Flying Dream Blues]

6. I may have asked, but I'll ask again. Thanks, IHAD!

[BlueIris]

14. I'm with I Have on the importance of asking guides for assistance.

That still helps me a not infrequent amount of the time.

[Flying Dream Blues]

19. I totally agree, Blue Iris. Sometimes I forget to ask! Thanks...nt

[rumpel]

7. Do you have a book shelf with

a cabinet underneath? Or a cabinet of some sort in the kitchen, dining room? If so, did you check in there?
Some utility type space area.

My daughter leaves things in the weirdest places without being conscious about it..

Your daughter must treasure the items, too. So is it possible she stored it somewhere safe - like a cabinet -distracted with something else, at the time perhaps?
I don't feel that anyone took it.

I hope you find your treasures.

[Flying Dream Blues]

8. Thanks, rumple....I've gone through the house with a fine tooth

comb...but I'll try again soon.

[MissWaverly]

17. I once lost a watch during my Dad's visit

He would take things and do pranks with them, he shoved it up inside my sofa, he also took
a box of my sister's checks, not to be nasty but as a joke and then he would hide them.

[rumpel]

18. Your dad sounds like a character

reminds me of my great uncle....

he would also use these gadgets, like a fake ink tub with a spill and fake poop or vomit etc. and call my great aunt, and she would always fall for it, and ran to get a rag.

[Why Syzygy]

22. I wouldn't be amused at all

if someone took my checks. Reminds me of my uncle who thought it was a hoot to break a raw egg on our heads. Of course he didn't have to clean up. Makes the hair shiny, but I wasn't planning on having to take an extra shower. I stayed the hell away from him as much as possible.

[MissWaverly]

24. well, I think my dad was feeling like we his kids were bossing him

that must be hard when your kids are telling you what to do all the time, he wasn't a bad
guy and used to spend a lot of time with my scottie and bent over to pet him and things and
he had broken both hips so it wasn't easy for him to get down low enough to pet him,
of course, my dog was not going to go out of his way during his nap to make it easier
for my pop.

[Why Syzygy]

25. that pretty much defines

a "character" type .. maybe. Your call. My uncle was just always trying to gain an upper hand. Over children. How hard is that.

Thing is I got to grow up and he finally showed a little respect. That he could be a decent human being. My Aunt, by marriage, the woman he was married to, was the sweetest woman I've ever encountered. Unfortunately she fell prey to brain cancer 8 years ago and went fast.

I happen to have a child who has gotten into the habit of bossing me and telling me who I should be. Don't do it. I never did that to him, and I will certainly not take it. He got to be his own man. I get to be my own woman.

Why were ya'll telling your dad what to do? If you want to say.

[MissWaverly]

26. My Dad was older and needed help

He eventually died in a nursing home but about 5 years before he started getting confused,
like going out and wandering around until we would find him, leaving the burners on, wanting
lunch at midnight. I think it was hard for him, as a young man he had mixed up "hot mix"
which was tar and asphalt for the roads and I really think it affected him long term.

[MissWaverly]

23. well, it made for a memorable visit

sometimes people don't mean to annoy, they are just trying to pull a prank!

20. "dropping a pen" sometimes works to find lost things.

I haven't done this in a while, but it used to work for me. I can't remember the specifics, and I just searched the internet and couldn't find instructions.

Anyway, you rest your arm on a table and hold a pen lightly between two fingers and your thumb over something that will make noise when the pen drops on it. For example, place a pad of paper or something on the floor, then rest your arm or elbow on a table holding a pen lightly between two fingers and your thumb over the pad of paper. So your hand and the pen will not be over the table but a couple of feet above the pad of paper, but you arm is resting on the table. You must be in a relaxed position. Then you basically "clear you mind" and are silent with your eyes closed. You will need to be silent for several minutes. Do not think about the lost object at this time. Eventually, you will slip away, and the pen will drop. When you hear the pen drop, ask where the item is and you might remember or the spirits will tell you.

I wish I could explain this method better or remember where I heard about it. But I do know it works. It sorta puts you in a sort of meditative state where you can reach back into your mind and discover where the item is.

Sometimes you just get a hint - for instance when my brother did this once, he got a finger pointing in a direction, which is very weird. He looked everywhere in that direction and couldn't find the object, but it was behind this fake wall he had put up in his recording studio and he found it when we moved, just where the finger pointed!! Spooky!!

Good Luck!

[Why Syzygy]

21. That's interesting ..

and prompted me to google "find lost things". Here's an amusing one >
http://www.professorsolomon.com/12principles.html

Many times I've had an uncanny knack for finding lost objects. But usually other people's.
What taught me this was an incident that happened over 20 years ago. A roommate had come home intoxicated one night. The next day we found he had spent the night in his car. He said he tried to get in and his key wouldn't work. But his keys were missing. We looked all over the car and the parking lot. Something finally just struck me, and I went up the other staircase of the apartments and found his keys dangling from a neighbor's door! He had been trying to get in the wrong door. I don't know where that insight came from.

I lived with an absent minded roommate for awhile. He once lost a $50 bill when he was sending out cash Christmas cards. Believe me, I looked for that one. But it was never found. I think he may have thrown it out. But when he "lost" (misplaced) other items I could usually find them. He was going nuts one night because he couldn't find his rent receipt book. I helped him search his room and upstairs. Finally I went back to his room and went into that zone an noticed he had placed a book over his trash can. The rent receipt book had fallen into the trash can.

Anything that is out of place or just doesn't make logical sense can be a clue.

I lost my prized quartz crystal once. I didn't think about it for awhile because wasn't using it. I thought oh no, not that. I gave up and later found it among my stack of Tarot books. That made sense.

More memories. Before I got the most awesome job I ever had, the old company had a weekly craft sale in the cafeteria. I bought a very cheap ring, black stone. BlueIris could tell you. It's been awhile since I was really into gems and the name escapes me. It was supposed to grant you wishes. And I so much wanted a new job. I wore that for a couple of months, even though it probably looked a bit tacky. I got the new job, but the during the first week I was there I went to the ladies room. Soon after that, I realized, my ring is gone! I went back to the room several times and looked in the paper towel bin and all around. I never took it off, it was my constant reminder that I intended a new job. Looked around my desk. It was never found. I finally had to assume that it had accomplished its mission. And disappeared into thin air. I lost another gem that meant a lot to me too. I was certain it was in the closet. But I never found it.

Strange thing is when I put on my glasses to write this I noticed that one of the nose pieces to my reading glasses has fallen off somewhere. These glasses only go a few places. This means a trip to the glasses shop. Must be fate.

[Flying Dream Blues]

27. I can see how that might work...thanks, suziedemocrat! nt

[LaurenG]

28. I think you know what happened to them already

before I even finished reading your post I knew you knew who did it. It hit me like a lead balloon. I hope you can figure out a way to retrieve them.
:hug:

[Flying Dream Blues]

29. Thank you, OhioBlues...I appreciate your intuitive impression.

It's really the last thing I'd like to believe...

[Why Syzygy]

31. Any news on these items?

I did dream the other night that I found my dad's blanket, or rather that it was returned to me.

[Flying Dream Blues]

32. Oh, I hope that happens, votesomemore! No news here,

but I do have the feeling that I'll get my items back...they'll be found. Let me know if your dad's blanket comes back to you!
Thanks for checking in on this, I appreciate you thinking of me.
:hi:

[Why Syzygy]

33. My pleasure.

Give us your good report too :D

From your post #10 http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=245&topic_id=27811&mesg_id=27850 .

Is there anyone that doesn't know you're looking for them? Could be the "more than one person"?

[Flying Dream Blues]

34. Well, I don't think my stepson knows I'm looking for them, but I'm trying

to think it through before asking him if he knows anything about them. I'm kind of avoiding addressing this right now, since I'd rather keep my faith unshaken than mount an all-out effort and come up empty. That may be cowardly, but I feel like I'm being asked to accept not having them for now, and to have faith that I'll have them sometime in the future.

I'll be sure to make a big post when they return to me!
:hi:
