So, we got robbed.
We left at 9 this morning to do our final walk through at the house we are moving into. Tomorrow. When we got back at 1 our door had been kicked in and our dogs were roaming free. They took all that we hadn't packed- our TV, both Mac computers and K's work computer, K's new sound system. All cables and chargers, and my LL Bean bag. Ha! I think that's funny. They took my canvas bag to carry all the stuff in, but left my designer bags on the floor of my closet. Idiots.
I was devastated that all of my pictures of Chamblee were lost- until K let me know he had backed them up on a hard drive that was packed away. Phew. I have to keep reminding myself that these are, after all, just things. Just replaceable things. I'm not bothered that they are gone, as much as I am bothered that someone was watching us, waiting for us to leave and that someone was in my home going through my stuff. I feel horribly violated. We had always planned on getting an alarm system in the new house, but now I want it installed immediately. Yesterday. What if Chamblee and I had been home? It's no good for me to even think about it.
I refuse to let these ghetto thugs ruin my 30-day challenge. Thank goodness for iPhones.

How appropriate. Getting robbed.
Until Next Time,

UGH! What a start to the week! So sorry for ya'll, but very glad you and Cham weren't home. The same thing happened to my brother during his moving process last year. Love you lots and can't wait to see you!
ReplyDeleteThat is horrible, i am so glad you girls weren't home alone. congrats on the house though at least your getting outta that place!
ReplyDeleteomg! That's awful. Totally know how you feel. About a year ago, Mama and Karen were visiting me and Leigh in Nashville and some ppl crawled over our 2nd floor balcony porch and came right on in - While we were there! It was terrifying all huddled together in my closet on the phone with the 911 dispatcher whisper yelling at her to get a cop there NOW! So glad y'all are ok and you didn't have to experience that terror with your cute little girl in the house!
