While I have so many other things I am behind on blogging about, I have had one thing occupying some part of my conscious or subconscious mind since our move, so this is where I begin. Somewhere in our move we lost a box or had it stolen. To be honest, if it had been any other box I would be over it by now. However, this was our "hygiene" box. I think every single day since we have been in Washington I have thought about another thing that was in that box that I really need or want. Dax says he saw it in the Uhaul here in Washington, and we had a bolt on the Uhaul the entire time we had it besides when it was being unloaded. I have unloaded everything in our storage unit three times, just to be sure I didn't miss it. I have scoured my parent's house looking for it, but to no avail. This isn't a small box that could be easily misplaced either. It was a good 18" x18". The only thing I can think of is that someone walked up while things were being unloaded and took it. I can't think of any other alternative...and I have been through hundreds of scenarios in my head. After the first week my mom told me that we probably wouldn't find it and I should try and let it go and be OK not knowing what happened to it, but I' m really struggling with that. Especially because nearly every day I want something that was in that box!
-3 tubes of mary kay concealer
-mary kay eyebrow pencil
-perfume that Dax bought me in Paris (Dax especially is lamenting this one)
-enough toothpaste and toothbrushes to last a year
-enough of Dax's razors to last a year (he doesn't use a cheap one either)
-4 bottles of contact solution
-old spice and dove deodorant for Dax and I for nearly a year
- brand new MAC eye shadow in corduroy
-liter bottles of Biolage shampoo and conditioner (which I LOVE but don't normally purchase...I got this on a steal of a deal)
-regis salon straightening spray
-3 body sprays
-body wash and dial soap for 6 months
-all curling irons besides my straightener (3)
-big bottle of curel and jergens lotion
-nail polish and removers
-my kids' body wash, shampoo
-enough facial moisturizer for a year
All in all, over $400 worth of products that I so carefully accumulated for us. Who knows where?...I wish I did

That makes me sick for you! Those kinds of things occupy my mind as well until it is found or solved. I really hope you come across it but if not that is very irritating that people do those kinds of things. It has been over a year since we were burglarized and I still have issues letting it go:)
On a better note I didn't know you guys are in Othello I thought you were going to be in Moses. We are finally here now and should get together. Right now I am just trying to get our house put together and it is proving to be a lot longer of a process than I had anticipated.
Ugh, so annoying. Just think, maybe one day it'll turn up in he most random of situations and you'll be so grateful for the year supply of everything.
I hate losing things. A couple moves ago we lost a box of kitchen stuff that had my favorite pans and mixing bowls in it. I still keep hoping it will show up hiding in a mis-marked box that's in storage.
I hope yours shows up for you! You had lots of important stuff in it!
