Ever been robbed of anything you really cared about? I really hadn't...up to last Saturday in Minneapolis. I have always hated driving or riding in the cities, but now I hate that place period!
It all started with a fun weekend of visiting family and watching our oldest play high school hockey. Saturday Toby dropped me, Lacey, Rylan and Mel off at the door...I decided at the last minute to leave my purse tucked under the seat. We enjoyed three periods of watching Roseau vs Totino Grace...and after, hung around to visit with Brooks and the relies. Little did we know we would find a mess of broken glass in our new Ford Escape upon leaving the arena...and, my purse was gone. Yup....all of my most personal information was in it. The first thing to go through my head was what kind of a creep does this. The second thing was....panic..then tears. Lots of tears. So many tears my face got chapped. Crap. This is not fun. Riding back to Laura's in a vehicle with no window was also not fun...not so much. From there Jon & Toby took it back to the Wylies house to cover the window (or hole) with plastic. We drove home 4 long hours with NOISE and more noise! But we did stay warm. And the plastic stayed up. And we didn't run out of gas. Having no money, no checkbook and no debit or credit card is really a terrible feeling. Especially when away from home. With my kid, and my grandbaby who is only 2 1/2 months old. GGRRRRRRRRRRR!
Now the hassle of replacing the cards...drivers license, debit, credit, insurance, dental, movie rental, you name it. And praying to our wonderful God that the creep grabbed the cash and threw the purse in the trash. Please Lord save us from a nightmare.
Time to eat! I didn't even have to do the cooking tonight so I am outahere.
