You are NOT oversensitive, the person who threw out the blanket is seriously lacking in sensitivity. At the very least, they are seriously lacking in judgment for boundaries. Grrrr, that still makes me mad every time I think about it. Sorry, the Spouse Sparrow is a “Oh, just chuck it in the bin” kind of person, and we’ve been wrangling over what stuff gets shipped over when we move, and what doesn’t. So yeah, I am definitely on your side!

Thanks for not calling me an oversensitive twat :) I love that people in their adult years still have empathy for inanimate objects- if anything I think I took it worse than the child did!

I’m sorry to hear about your horrible week and about poor Laughingboy. And I’m so angry for you about Puppychild’s blanket – I can’t believe someone would do something like that without your permission. Poor Puppychild – I can imagine her pain. I had a grubby white rabbit that I would never be parted from. I would have been gutted if someone had thrown her away.

Thanks for the empathetic rant Jo :) Everyone’s good now that mommy’s spewed her frustrations all over her blog, though Puppychild has developed a (hopefully temporary) fear of the dustbin. A hoarder is born!!

Carocat; I know!! Scarred for life! (Or at least for a day or two…)

Ah, thanks.

I can’t believe someone would do that. :(

how FUCKING dare she? While the poor girl’s brother in is hospital and she’s about to go through the merry upheaval of a new sibling? What sort of person does that? Beyond stupid. RANTRANT.

New blanky mission. I know it’s not the same. But it’s a distraction. She can be scientific about the selection process and ways to replicate the comforting smell.

Poor Kate. I hope you and them are all ok?

Ah Baino it’s a different story entirely for people that know me, it’s the total strangers that reckon they’re in the safe zone to ask the question just because the bump is that bit too big :) They’re the ones I like to be a smart arse to, but only on one of me gothic days.

Granny; I’m thinking of buying her a tarantula for Christmas.

I would happily eat the contents of our overflowing rubbish bin than put poor
blankie in it. What a most peculiar Woman!
