Uffda


We had a great weekend at the Vagabundos del Mar Crab Feed last weekend. Then we came home to a nasty surprise. Someone had broken into our house and really trashed the place. The photo is the office--couldn't walk thru there. The master bedroom was worse, clothes everywhere.



The police came to take a report and decided CSI was needed. The CSI was there 3 hours doing his thing. Then we got to dig thru the mess to figure out what was missing. Some was obvious right away--the silverware was gone--silverplate and sterling sets. All my earrings were gone except Easter bunnies, snowflakes and Norsk flags. They left my Solje pin, but took the matching earrings. Didn't find my necklaces. Took Gary's jewelry box. The worst two were my wedding ring and the heart necklace Gary gave me for a wedding gift.

The good part is that we now have very clean clothes, a large bag to donate and nice, neat drawers and cupboards. The hardest part is that we needed to leave Thursday (we discovered this on Sunday) so we have hit the ground running every day to get the house in some kind of order and do all the research we needed to do for the police and insurance company. Now we are on the road to Seattle.
