Because my hands were puffy from pregnancy, I'd removed my engagement ring -- that was the hardest thing to lose. I've never bothered to replace the ring. It's a horrible feeling knowing someone has been in your home, violated your private space and taken your things. Lots of hugs to you.

I hope that they find the creep(s)that did this! The same thing happened to my family several years ago on Thanksgiving and we were out of state. It was awful and I totally understand your feelings of violation and anger! The only thing that helped me was reminding myself that the things that were taken were "things" and my family was safe and sound. It took awhile to let it go and it still hurts to think about the irreplaceable jewelry that was taken that were very special to me.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06838832109510581167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-8340986742142752152008-11-28T19:47:00.000-06:002008-11-28T19:47:00.000-06:00I'm so sorry to hear this!!

And on Thanks...I am so sorry that happened to you! And on Thanksgiving, too. It happened to us last May--someone broke into the back door of our house and made off with two laptop computers, our Wii (the kids were so upset), and several other things, none of which was irreplaceable, thank goodness. But we were IN THE HOUSE, ASLEEP when they came in, which was so, so creepy and terrifying--after the fact. Because the dog didn't even wake up, and we never heard a thing. Anyway, I understand the feeling of violation, and I hope you get some of your stuff back. We got one laptop later, which was recovered in a Homeland Security sting, of all things...if only the computer could talk, it might have some interesting stories!Gentle Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09102364083044797155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-70975681633816630472008-11-28T14:38:00.000-06:002008-11-28T14:38:00.000-06:00Oh I am so sorry!
