It is an awful feeling. I never did get over it. I never ever felt 100% safe again in that house. I will pray that you will be able to get over this. I will keep you in my prayers and thoughts.<BR/><BR/>I don't even know how to put into words just how very upset I am that this happened to you.<BR/><BR/>It seems last year was a very bad year for so many. I apologize for not getting here sooner but my blog was taken over at MBL,I lost all of my contacts and communities so I simply didn't know.<BR/><BR/>Oh it was a terrible year for us too. My dearest friend and sister-in-law passed away on December the 12th unexpectedly.<BR/><BR/>Someone whom I thought was a friend took over my blog at MBL and claimed it as his own.<BR/><BR/>And, today I had 23 tags on my profile page at MBL and one of the words was death. I am crying as I am writing because I so know how violated you feel.<BR/><BR/>I read your other post which lead me here. And I can understand what you said about being able to write. Right now my home is a mess, my blog is erractic and a disaster....one minute I am fine and then the next I am in tears and paranoid.<BR/><BR/>Just know that I am sending all of the strength that I can master up toward you and your way. And, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I apologize for the rambling but that seems to be the way it is going as of late.<BR/>Hugs,<BR/>JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378896151545384221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25698471.post-91340405676351115492008-01-01T23:01:00.000-05:002008-01-01T23:01:00.000-05:00I am so sorry to read this...the *#@ &* MoronsI am so sorry to read this...the *#@ &* MoronsCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501511143186029607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25698471.post-83251234853614803792007-12-31T23:43:00.000-05:002007-12-31T23:43:00.000-05:00I'm so sorry to read about this.

So are all of you.<BR/><BR/><B>Carver</B> - It IS necessary for me to feel what I feel right now. And what I feel right now is anger and fear. Just being honest.<BR/>But this too shall pass. And I will work through it. Good friends help. Thank you.<BR/><BR/><B>Akelamalu</B> - Reiki accepted and appreciated. You are special to do so. Thank you, my friend.<BR/><BR/><B>Julie</B> - Working on the sleep part in bits and pieces. There's so much to do!<BR/><BR/><B>Cheysuli and Gemini</B> - All purrs appreciated. I think there was someone watching out when I came back home and signalled them somehow to leave. The thought that someone was "watching" is one of the creepiest parts. Thank you for your friendship.<BR/><BR/>Taking a break for awhile this afternoon and finishing up with the cleaning tonight....or at least part of it hopefully!<BR/><BR/>I will keep you all posted.<BR/>Much love and appreciation to all of you!

I think you have a remarkably good perspective so shortly after enduring this. I guess it's like everything else, it's necessary to feel what you feel. Not sure if that makes sense. Know that you are in my heart and that I'm sending out good thoughts/prayers for you.

Your safety is important.<BR/>I know that paranoid feeling... we have been robbed once ( nothing very important taken), but it is just unsettling afterwards.That will go away. You can use this fear "positively" to try and double your security methods also.<BR/><BR/>Stay calm and try and go on with your life.<BR/><BR/>XO<BR/>BarbaraBarbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02717159905482468936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25698471.post-71729942784848962362007-12-28T02:34:00.000-05:002007-12-28T02:34:00.000-05:00BIG HUGS.

I hope I can finally get some sleep. I appreciate your concerns and prayers so much.</B><BR/><BR/><B>Katherine</B> - My quick trip to the store turned into two hours and unfortunately, I ran out without setting the alarm. Arrgh...never never again. Thanks for the prayers. I need them.<BR/><BR/><B>Kathleen</B> - Knowing someone cares is worth so much. Thank you.<BR/><BR/><B>Bundle</B> - I hope the fingerprints turn out well and will help catch them. Thanks.<BR/><BR/><B>Sandee</B> - could use a hug about now. And I'm so sorry this has happened to you too. I was totally amazed that the laptop was here. The police wouldn't let me in the house for a long time (with melting groceries in the car) and I just knew it had to be the first thing they took as I waited outside to find out. I had just uploaded a video to my laptop I'd made of my grandson on Christmas Day and erased it from my camera. I was soooo glad it was still here...in plain view on the couch! Go figure. The police said laptops are very traceable and are left behind more than you would think. The big monstrous old computer in the other room, however, they had tried to unhook the hard drive and take. I think they ran out of time before they took everything they wanted. Except a box of checks (what a nightmare) and other things they could carry after making a total mess of things. <BR/><BR/><B>Lee</B> - How kind of you. Well...I'm not hyperventilating now. That's a good thing!<BR/>Progress....<BR/><BR/><B>Jeff</B> - I will take the prayers and I already feel comfort from them. Thank you.<BR/>As for the ass beating, you'll have to stand in line. There are several other folks ahead of you for that privilege. I'm gonna smack him in the head with a peace globe myself.<BR/><BR/><B>Bee</B> - It helps a LOT to know you are there and sending good vibes. I will be OK. Just really can't believe it has made me so nervous. It is not like me to be "afraid" ......I don't like this feeling. <BR/><BR/><B>Linda</B> - Yes, we chatted right about the time I was winding down from a spell of hyperventilation after the police left. I'm doing lots of things security wise, changing a few things around and having more lights installed this week. And then there are the "irrational" things like chairs under doorknobs (just for now) as added precaution just because it makes me feel better to see them there, arming the house differently while I'm here and TRYING to relax. Tonight is the first time I've really stopped thinking about it for awhile. Distracting myself with peace globe business and visiting blogs. .Thanks for being my buddy.<BR/><BR/><B>Travis</B> - That means a lot. <BR/><BR/><B>Desert</B> - The fear has to go. I can't stand this feeling. It's not like me but you're right....I do feel a bit paralyzed at the moment. I do think a little shock has set in. It's unsettling and you start to think about things differently. You think about <I>everything</I> differetly. Not feeling "safe" is a horrible way to be. <BR/><BR/><B>Ilovemylife</B> - TWICE? I'm so sorry. This happened to me back in the seventies and they came back to get the rest of <I>everything</I> in the house two weeks after the first robbery as well. I don't want that to happen again. I hope Sandee and Linda are right about that not being the case this time.Mimi Lenoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616635898420835541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25698471.post-86037030020260713032007-12-27T22:45:00.000-05:002007-12-27T22:45:00.000-05:00I've had it happen twice and understand your feeli...I've had it happen twice and understand your feeling violated. <BR/><BR/>Hoping you are feeling a little better, today.ilovemylifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414309954012911205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25698471.post-7826265498780750292007-12-27T22:24:00.000-05:002007-12-27T22:24:00.000-05:00Mimi, Mimi.

They got whatever they wanted and won't run the risk of breaking in again but that probably doesn't make you feel any better in the here and now. <BR/><BR/>Take care and do what you have to do to get through this regardless of what that might be.
