LUCKY ME... REALLY!

Well, my brother Steven and his wife told us of this store that was going out of business in SLC, and that you could get like a cart full of stuff for like 100 bucks.. clothes, shoes, jackets, etc.. So, on Tuesday, we went with my parents to drop off Lyza and Seth to Shaundee and then make our way to this store. It wasn't 30 minutes in the store before Kelli decided she should go potty and I, of coarse, left the wipes in the car. I got the keys from Danny and went to go out to the car... and my paranoid mother said.."you can't go by yourself.. I'm going with you." I kind of rolled my eyes and thought... "whatever floats your boat.."

I get out to the car and I'm trying to hurry cause the wind is just blowing like crazy and she's laying in the back of our pilot and is just freezing. I went around the side of the car behind the drivers side to get the wipes and when I shut the door, I heard something fall. I didn't pay much attention and just ran around to the back and finished up. My mother who lives and thrives off of Murder She Wrote re-runs, and Matlock and all the other shows decided to investigate the noise... what did she find????

My driver side window BROKEN!!!! Yup... within 30 mintues some punk kid broke into my freakin' car. I was so pissed.. Honestly. How low do you have to be to bust into someones car? Well, I looked in real quick and couldn't see anything that was stolen so Danny and I switched and he stayed out there and waited for the police. While I was waiting inside my dad calls me and tells me that the PURSE I left on the floor was gone. I know what your thinking... how dumb do you have to be to leave your purse?? I just have one in there with a diaper and wipes and I think some MAC lip balm. Just so happens that day.. I used it to go to the store to get some food for dinner. Danny and I start calling the credit card companies while talking to the officer and getting an ear full.. (dont worry.. my big mouth gave it right back... he was cool though)
I walk around the passenger side where my purse was and opened the door and BEHOLD my wallet lurking in the dark. Poor suckers got away without my credit cards, but got a size 4 diaper and a thing of wet wipes... and of coarse my favorite purse that was givin to me. I am SO lucky. That was going to be the biggest pain ever to have to re do my licence and credit cards. I've learned my lesson though.

But here goes my big mouth again.. I NEVER leave it in the front. Its usually in the back but we had 8 people PILED into our car and I was all the way in the back so everything got moved around.. I'm always hiding my things so no one will steal it.. This time I just wasn't careful enough. I'm so thankful that those 3 boys that my mom and I saw walking around from the car had Karma come back and bite them in the behind, and that they got away with NOTHING and ment anything to them. We described the boys that we saw to the officer and he said.."he's out of jail already? I've arrested him 3 times... " and he drove off to go check things out.

Thats my story of the week. Today Kelli had a dance recital.. I'll post about that soon!

Oh my gosh!! That is scary!! I'm sad about your MAC lip balm. :-( But happy your wallet is safe and sound at home. What store was it that is going out of business? ;-)

That sucks! I am so glad it wasn't as bad as it could have been though. It is too bad that there are people like that in the world. Our mail has been stolen which had my passport in it, now we have a P.O. box, our house got broken into, now we have an alarm system, my credit card got stolen, now I have Life lock. It is just such a hassle to go and replace everything and the feeling of being violated.

WOW I can totally picture it. Funny thing our moms are totally a like and I would have been the same way. I am so glad that nothing important was stolen. Two weeks ago I lost my license and debt card and was in a panic was ready to call and cancel but said a prayer first and looked in my van again and there it was but at least it wasnt my car that was broken into that sucks. We need to get together. Miss you

What punks!!My car was broken into when Bryan and I were first married and they got off with about 100 of my CD's! I still haven't gotten over it; it's such a violation!
