...my CAR!
We were robbed on Tuesday night!
It turns out they were in the house while I was on the computer and the family were asleep! They waited for me to go inside to bed (11pm) before coming into the studio and then leaving in my car. It was the next morning that we realised and pieced together what had happened. The police didn't take long to locate my car, it was found in the next suburb, missing some personal items however no noticable damage. My biggest relief with the car being found was that it still contained ALL my sample garments...phew! Everything else is an inconvenience. We've had to put a stop on all bank accounts as they stole my handbag (where they obtained the spare car key from), we've had all the locks on the studio, house, shed and Dans car changed because they also took Dans car keys along with his mobile phone & wallet.
As horrible as it all is we realise it could have played out alot differently (much worse)...for this we are thankful. The girls don't seem too affected by the ordeal however I know the ever vigilant teenager will be even more vigilant... and that's the hardest part for me to accept, that they were in the house while the girls were asleep...Yuk!
Take 2...my second attempt to get this to you.
ReplyDeleteSoooooo fantastic to look up & see you staring back at me!!!! Great weekend at the Freo markets; hobnobbing with brilliant artisans, meeting new artists, catching up with old friends (especially with Risa Herman whom I went to college with in 1975ish; a beautiful lady & ceramisist who still looks the same as she did back then!).
Will contact Joan 1st thing tomorrow re Winter School in 2009; possibly 3 days (yipee). I'll be scouring the 2nd hand shops from now on & gathering up my old clothes in a special box in anticipation.
Keep well sweetheart,
love Shireen xxxxxxxxx
