lost my camera!

I have no idea where it is.... I'm starting to suspect the cleaning people! I think I'g getting paranoid, but where can it be? I'm so anal retentive and OCD that I know I just didn't misplace it! (not to brag) but my house is always just so order- dure to my anal retentiveness and OCD! Where oh where can it be?

This Christmas and New Year I did n't have my camera to take pics of Bella. Luckily my parents took pics that I can copy. Just so agrivating!

Re: lost my camera!

That stinks. Maybe your DH moved it somewhere, or did you take it to someone's house before the holidays and forgot it?

Is it a company, or private individuals? If it's a company, I'd speak to the manager/owner. If it's individuals (or even if they're for a larger company but are the same people that always do your house), I'd say something like "the last time you were here, did you happen to notice my camera somewhere? I haven't found it where I normally keep it, and that's not like me. There are very important pictures on it that I'd hate to lose." That way you're not accusing them, but maybe they'd have a heart if they actually did take it and may feel bad?

Good luck! Chat Icon

It's actually a private compay that my DH's family and my family have used for years (even before me and my DH met we were using the same people)- I'd hate to think someone did this because I grew up with them and so did DH and never had a problem with them. I've recommended them to many of my friends who are very happy with them, but I don't know what else happened. Like I mentioned, I'm very OCD and anal about how my house is and where things are, so I know where I left it is where it should be. makes you Chat Icon Chat Icon

Believe me, I completely understand and you have every right to be upset!!

Were the regular people the last ones there, or were there subs? Maybe someone put it somewhere else by accident while cleaning (hoping this is the case for you, I really am!!!!)...no reason they should really move a camera, but since you've got such a good relationship with the company, I'm hoping this is the case Chat Icon

I hpe so too, but where I keep it ther should be no reason for them to touch it .... especially since the other "stuff"- cell phones, ipod etc are on the sam e shlelf and were not touched. They know not to clean there and yes, they were the same people as usual!

Aw, that really stinks. I would definitely say something tomorrow, put them on the spot. Just say something along the lines like I posted above maybe, before accusing them...see if they're completely thrown off that you're asking them, maybe you'll be able to read them!

Awww I hope you find it. Do you think it could have fallen behind the shelf you keep it on?
Or maybe in your pocketbook or your DCs Diaper bag?

Is it a new camera? You could report it stolen if you believe it has been. I know if it was my DSLR that was stolen, I'd probably go through homeowners - or if it's new & charged on an Amex, you may have some protection.
