A Thief = Goodbye Purse

Our life has been a little crazy lately. Last Wednesday, while I was at work, my purse was stolen from my car. Now, yes, let me go ahead and put it out there, my car was unlocked- I don't ever lock my car. I park at the back door to my office and haven't ever had a problem. In fact, most of my family that parks around back do not lock their car doors. It is amazing how much of a hassle it is when you have your purse stolen. I had to cancel credit cards, which turned out to be the easiest thing I had to do. Then I had to close my checking account and open a new one, order new checks and debit card. Both mine and Ava's social security cards were in there, my driver's license, gift cards, cash...I mean everything that I carry around day-to-day. On top of all that, my coach purse I had gotten for Christmas and I LOVED that purse! I know that most of these things are replaceable (for the most part). The one thing I am most upset about is my Flip camera that Adam bought me for Christmas. I wanted a video camera that was small and I could carry around anywhere I went, so no matter where I was I could pull it out and video Ava. I have a nice bigger video camera, but I loved the ease of the Flip. It was in my purse, with videos from Easter of Ava hunting eggs, and I will never see those videos again. I am still sick over losing those videos. I even told Adam I would gladly let the person have everything and the camera if they would just bring it back for me to take the videos off. The entire ordeal was just sickening. So, if you want to know why I have been too busy to post, its because I have been changing everything I needed to change and sort everything out. I had videos to post of Ava hunting eggs, however, since they are gone, pictures alone will have to settle.....

P.s. I now lock my car door and carry my purse inside with me :(
