Many people drink Vodka to mask the alcohol smell... Mixed into a soda can she could drive without appearing to be drinking...

Thanks this is probably true but just wondered more about her aerial yoga? Not something to do whilst being merry/drunk?

Random pondering thoughts: Looking at the map between Monet Ave and Walmart on Goldenrod (correct me if I'm wrong on locations) it is a 10 to 13 minute drive to use the ATM and Walmarts purchase of alcohol. If you zoom in on the map near Monet there is a Conway liquor store and a Publix super market right around the corner where she could have completed both tasks without driving to Walmart. If she were planning self harm would she have still cared if anyone saw her purchase liquor or was she still simply to embarrassed? I also wonder about where she worked? Many yoga, gym, dance etc places have full windows in the front in hopes it will draw customers. Could someone have been watching her? At this point it's just crazy, stab in the dark thoughts. Just sharing them.

IMO if you were planning to end it all embarrassment would not be an issue - who cares if the checkout assistant sees you buying booze again as you won't see them again anyway! I still feel something accidental has happened, I think she was a responsible, loving mother who had every intent on going home but again JMO

I also assumed she prepared lunch and non-alcoholic beverages. If not, I'm not sure SH the only party with an alcohol problem given that it was early afternoon when SH was last seen on video. Did SH buy the vodka for herself or was she sent on an errand to buy that bottle? MOO

This interests me - she has been married 25yrs and she apparantly has an alcohol problem, I am not accusing her husband of any misdemeanor but I wonder if he liked a drink too? Was she an alcoholic when they met (I doubt that)? Drink is usually an escape and can turn to an addiction but usually there is something that makes you want to escape? I too find it utterly bewilderring there has been no CCTV or sightings of her pretty big car.

What if that bag her husband found wasn't for her to go to rehab, at all? What if she had other plans?
I’ve considered the possibility she left but I can’t figure out why they haven’t found the SUV - unless it’s parked under a roof or a parking garage ?

I am truly hoping you are right. The fact that she did go out of her way to purchase liquor (if one were to believe she had a problem with alcohol) can be an encouraging factor if true.

JMO

That's a good possibility - and if you consider that then you have 3 possible options of what has possibly happened:

1 - she has driven somewhere unseen and took her own life

2 - she has driven somewhere and was so intoxicated a tragic accident has occurred

3 - She wanted to start a new life, her kids were a bit older, she was unhappy and thought now was the right time

All theories and MOO

Since LE has had no sighting of her vehicle since the ATM I can't rule out that SH could have taken the route back to her house or even made it home. Were people at the house all that day that would have known or noticed? I know that leaves a lot of unanswered questions but....

That would have been a possibility in my mind but because LE has stated quite specifically that the family (at least husband) has no involvement I don't think so IMO

Which is why I’m so curious About the cameras from her street and video - which we’ve heard nothing - it’s odd IMO

You're right and it makes sense but I still wonder about different scenarios that are slim possibilities but still possible. Not saying this is the case but having worked in the field there have been some huge surprises.

Is this the correct Walmart Supercenter north of the suspected intersection? Lake Nona High School is south.

If it's not her, it's someone's family. Hope they can ID the person quickly so the family can have peace.

"On Saturday afternoon, searchers, along with the woman's family, were flying a drone near Dowden Road and Story Time Drive in the Innovation Way area when they discovered a vehicle inside a retention pond, according to the Orlando Police Department

A dive team with the Orlando Fire Department confirmed that a deceased person was inside the vehicle, according to a news release from Orlando police."
