Oh no. I hate it when something so valuable goes missing. It hasn't been packed up with the Christmas supplies by accident>

It could be almost anyplace since it's not where I keep it, except where I've looked that is, lol! I even told my son it's OK if the puppy chewed it because I can fix it, but he looked at me like I lost my mind.

Oh no! That is so stressful and heartbreaking. I hope you find it soon. I can totally relate, but hopefully your story ends up better than mine...
I had brought an entire completed album to my LSS to show the owner some new techniques I had been working on. I realized when I got home from the shop I didn't have my album with me. I looked EVERYWHERE, called the store etc etc I finally remembered I must have put it on the roof of my car while putting the baby in her carseat! So I never got the album back. I am SO glad I had scanned every layout in it (this was back when I did 8.5 x 11).
I am sure your album is somewhere, look everywhere, even the weird "it couldn't possibly be here" places. Please update when you find it!

Sending "find it quick" vibes your way!
Where are the storage places in your home that you don't use frequently? Do you have a guest room it might be in? With other Christmas decorations? Do you have a storage unit that it might have accidentally been packed up in?

Is there any chance you took it somewhere? Meaning, did you go to a family member's for Christmas last year and bring it w/you to share? If the answer is no, then it must be in the house somewhere. This means, it will turn up at some point.
Don't make yourself crazy. Try to put it out of your mind. Sleep on it tonite. It will turn up. And obviously in a place you would never think of looking (Go ahead and ask me how my son's senior portraits ended up in the bin w/all my Hawaiian vacation pics, embellishments & memorabilia. Then ask me how long I looked for them. And then ask me how many times the gals I scrap with told me to look in the bin. Go ahead. Ask me.).
Don't give up hope - we'll all keep our fingers crossed for you.

You did check that it wasn't put back in the right spot? You said you have 100, maybe it's with one of the others in the wrong spot. Hope you find it!

When I can't find something I have usually panicked and looked too quickly and miss it. Can you go back through each album and open them just to make sure? Good luck.

That is a horrible feeling - I hope you find it soon. We just moved and I have had so many of those moments - of sheer panic trying to remember if it moved with us or got misplaced in the move. So far everything has been found for the most part but somethings landed in strange places. I really hope you find it soon and can enjoy it I know I would be terribly upset if I lost something like that.

I have to wait until the weekend to really look again, but I've pretty much decided it is not on the first floor of my house.....and that I need to mop under my sofas more often!

Now that we're replacing our kitchen cabinets, you don't even want to know what it looks like behind my appliances!

Is it possible it got packed up with the Christmas decorations or other holiday stuff last year? I lost a roasting pan for a year that way once...

Last week we just found the plug in doorbell we had been missing for three years. I am pretty sure a kid unplugged it to put up a tree downstairs. I got blamed for it, but I never decorate that tree.

So sorry your album is missing. Sometimes missing items show up at very random moments even though you've looked in that same place like 10 times. I hope yours show up soon!

Have you tried putting out an offering to the house fairies? We always blame pixies when something goes missing, cuz we're crazy like that. They're fond of candy and liquor.
