Love that blog candy

Today was a busy day. But before I get to that I will share with you some blog candy I won from Moriah's blog http://fuzzyslippersdesigns.blogspot.com/ Thank you Moriah :)


I was up so late last night. Actually I was up until a little past 3:30am. I couldn't sleep (yes I nipped into the pop). So I caught up on my blogs I love to check out.
at a little before 3:30, I heard some kids outside. It was warm in the house (didn't want to turn on the air) so we had the windows open. After a bit I looked outside and saw 3 boys walking down the sidewalk by the neighbours house. At first I thought that the boy next door was coming home way to late. Thinking ohhh his parents are going to be p1ssed at him. Then thought No I don't think this boy would be out that late. My kitchen window faces his bedroom and he didn't put a light on. So I knew it wasn't him.
Then I got a bad feeling. Shut and locked the windows and went to bed.

Hubby calls me before he heads to work that our jeep was broken into.
I forgot to lock the jeep doors. So what the boys did was take my parking money (maybe at the most $5.00) and made a mess out of the jeep, just threw the contents of the glove compartment and the console around.
Thankfully they didn't take my (I mean Kristy's) case of Coke for the weekend.

I did phone the police and told them what had happened. He asked if I lived on a street a few blocks away. I guess these boys prowled a few blocks. The police told me if I see kids roaming the street at night to phone them as they take this seriously.

The rest of the day I spent with my SIL Sharon. We got camp food and went shopping for the day.
We are going to her camp for the weekend. We are leaving about noon tomorrow. I think I have most of my scrap booking stuff packed.
I am not worrying to much as Kristy is having a sleepover tomorrow and I am coming back into town to pick her up on Saturday, so I can get the things I forgot :). Sharon's camp is only a 40 min drive from town.

My vow for this blog was to write in it everyday. This is not going to happen this weekend as she doesn't have Internet or cell service out there. So I am tricky. I will write my day down and post it and change the date in the post options when I get back, Teehee.

Thankful Thursday

  2. See, one thing about living in the country is, I don't have kids just walking around the neighborhood at 3 a.m. On the other hand, when I do hear something going on, I'm super paranoid and I actually take a *gun* if I go outside when I hear something at night. heh.

    yes I'm a redneck, why do you ask?

  3. I am loving this blog and the comments, all those words like pissed and prick have given me the biggest smile today, sorry about your jeep though! It's also so cool that you can actually have a gun! mine is just a air rifle for shooting at the crows and magpies and if I am quick the pesky wabbits that eat our flowers and veg!!!

  6. I am so sorry that happened to you. I had the same type of thing happen to me and my jeep. They took the most stupid things, including cd's of random music that I'd put together. They also took all my papers, like proof of insurance, and scattered them all over the parking lot. Ugh...

    Have a great weekend playing with all your new stuff! Color me green with envy!!

  13. Congratulations on your "blog candy" win. WooHoo! But, sorry to hear about your Jeep getting broken into. Ugh!

    One of these days, I'll get more disciplined and can get more time to devote to my blog. I still feel like I have so much more to learn. Yours is great! Love it!
