Things could go better. I'm at the second house for the first time in more than a month and . . . it's been burglarized. I'd guess that I'm out $5k. However, I'm feeling lucky instead of depressed. Whoever it was could have taken a lot more (especially irreplaceable things like my mother's wedding portrait or the 1800s painting my parents willed me.) And he did minimal damage.

Oh well. I shouldn't have left so many things in this house. But even the police expressed surprise at some of the things the thief DIDN'T take. Ammunition. The big screen TV. My son's synthesizer (but it's in a carrying case.)

I have a hunch it was a single guy... maybe on foot... and when he'd taken all that he could carry, he left.

$5k is a lot to lose, but someone else might have taken us for $30k and trashed the house.

I'm sure you can guess what I'll be doing for the next week. NOTHING important to me will be staying here.
