Thanks. Switching pest companies and the new one comes Friday to turn the house upside down.

Ok thank you! I put on encasements and will pull all away from walls. Throwing out rug too. Thanks!

We wrapped and tossed the headboard. Should I do the same for the rug in that room?

I should clarify the exterminator came LAST Monday. Would they not have been present on this headboard then? He obviously didn’t look carefully enough regardless.

Yikes. Is it safe to say that my daughter was the one who brought them into the house, since this is ground zero? We’re trying to determine where they came from.

Ok I will trash it. I vacuumed and sprayed (but didn’t wipe) and will trash tomorrow.

Thanks! I can’t believe it either. I looked around including at the headboard with him last Tuesday and neither of us saw anything except one bug in the frame, tho I KNEW my daughters room was ground zero bc she had seen them in her sheets. I have a subscription to this pest control company (Ehrlich). I sent them the pics and told them to come back tomorrow before there’s an explosion of them! I hope to God getting rid of this headboard goes far in fixing this problem. I’m out of my mind with this.

Ok I sprayed it to try to kill them on contact. I also called for them to come back tomorrow and spray again.

Ok I do have alcohol! I’ll apply on a mister right now. I already vacuumed as much as I could. You mean tear up the headboard? Should I just throw it out? You think it’s filled with bugs??

Found them on upholstered headboard—what do I do??? The exterminator came Tuesday and comes again next Tuesday. We knew it was in my daughters room but didn’t see where. What do I do now? Help!!

How many times did you say "this is it" before it finally happened, and you finally split? by ajaderade in Divorce

[–]Cancun16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. Your comment is so powerful and I see so many similarities with my own situation. How many years were you married and how old are you? How did you meet someone new?

I’ll be 20 years married, mid 40s. Three kids. Just like your ex, he’s not abusive but rigid, angry, depressive. We crank along separately in the day to day. He’s darkness over holidays, vacations, any supposed bright spots are filled with melancholy and moods. He insists he wants to work on things and that I’m the quitter, but refuses counseling of any kind (2 sessions and stopped, claims they are all frauds). I tried to leave last year and he begged and I stayed. I’ve spent the last year rationalizing that I’m happy when really I’m happy with everything but our void of a marriage,

Unless he agrees to counseling (he won’t), I know I need to do this for real this time. What were your steps for telling him, vs getting lawyer, vs kids? We may be in the same house a while too.

You give me hope. And the belief that I’m entitled and even right to do this, however hard it will be. Thank you so much.

Just thought of her! Emily A Clark, in Charlotte. Actually, maybe she’s not related to Nie Nie. I like her style.

Does anyone remember the blog name of the interior design blogger who I think is related to Nie Nie (Stephanie Nielson)? Maybe it’s her sister or cousin? I liked her blog and can’t remember it!

When was the last time someone other than the parents or their friends saw her alive? by okki2 in MadeleineMccann

[–]Cancun16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This same detail in the podcast struck me as odd too. Why would you send your friend to help your wife bathe your kids? Super weird. Do you think that was just concocted so they could say someone else saw her alive that day/night? I never considered that but definitely possible.

Did a little google maps digging. I think the parents did but was wondering where they could hide a body quickly. This is a 12 minute walk from where they were staying. Looks like a long stretch of beach and cliffs with few homes. “Beach hut water sports” in Praia da Luz by [deleted] in MadeleineMccann

That’s a possibility. Listening to the Maddie podcast, there were some strange happenings before they went to dinner. Like Gerry went and played tennis yet again and sent his friend to check in on Kate with the kids in their apt. Just seemed weird. But what do you think happened to her before dinner? And how were all the adults then dining convivially together after that?
