OH I am right back, Tami got me on IM. she just told me I could tell you, her auto was vandalized tonight

she had the boys with her, and ws at PTA, came out to find a lunch of windows broken. she had to call for hubby to come get her. she is shaken up but OK, and will try to catch up later, dealing with insurance at the moment,

Oh God... Poor Tami. She must feel so... violated.

This world has gone insane.

RUBY, I am really laughing our loud. OH MY, find the porcelian trough for real!

I lost a good deal of hair when I developed thyroid issues, Bean.

I hope Rena and Amber were in training before their departure. They're setting quite a pace.

Heidi, my first thoughts exactually. my house was broken into onnce when I was a single mom, We came home to find it and that is how I flet, totally! You would never guess who my hero was???

Please pass on some cyber hugs to Tami, MizT. She would be feeling really bad and unsafe. I remember how I felt when our almost new 4WD was hotwired and stolen. A gang of thieves wrote it off, but not before r***** a young girl in it. I could never sit in it again. The insurance company fixed it, we sold it.

BTW, you may talk now Bean hehehe

Horses are very social animals, and quite curious. I Vet friend actually let one of her horses come in her house (on a dare), The horse broke through the kitchen floor.

That was about 12 years ago, we're fine of course, but the girl????

Did Tami say it was just her car, just teacher's cars, or general vandalism? We always had someone watch the cars for after-dark school events.

Rena i am so glad you weren't too tired to post before you went out. Hope you had a good day.
We await your appraisal of Hotel Rolanda

teachers'

This reminds me. Someone once gave me a piece of advice which was when out and about, put your car / house keys in your pocket if possible, not your handbag. If your bag is snatched, you can still get to your car and into your house. It's awful that we have to even think about ways to protect ourselves.

Rolanda, I forgot my manners. Wishing your boys every success in their exams too!!! Now I must leave.

Horses don't do the down staircase.

I should think about retiring for the night. I have 4 new pigeons arriving tomorrow morning around 6:30 am. 2 Old German Owls and 2 Giant Runts.

So... Everybody!

Just stopped in for a minute. thanks for all the hugs. I had gone to my son's school for a PTA meeting. When the meeting was over, we found that 4 of my car windows had been smashed.

Poor Tami! I had my car broken into over 20 years ago. I had taken my wallet out of my handbag and left the bag in the car. That was when I learned to never leave anything inviting in the car! I have also been robbed while at home, a year before the car break in. A druggie climbed through the bathroom window to take my telephone bill money off the table - a huge deal on my student budget! The only window he could have seen it through was 6' off the ground! It was very lucky that I had won the deadlock argument (not locked when we're home) and he was able to leave. If he'd been stuck inside who knows what would have happened! A Uni friend came over and slept the night on our bean bag and the next day my mother drove up to Sydney with her drill and made it so all of the windows could be screwed shut or open a few inches....

By the way, I hope I didn't imply that you left stuff in the open Tami! With 4 windows broken yours seems to be vandalism rather than theft.. Which I think is worse, at least there is a point to theft.

RUBY, she did not say if only her car, and I had asked about the security, but she was on phone with insurance and had to turn her attention there!

WOW, so much on that page, I will have to come bck and read that again later. too much to take in at one reading. I think everyone must be off in little groups, shall I make a pot of coffee and await your return??

I'm sort of here MizT, keep popping off to do something else. Ally is planting apple seeds, pot plants have been moved to safety, bathrooms checked before student arrives, phone calls made etc etc....

Ruby, cows do not do down stairs either according to my hubby! I have no personal experience myself!

Heidi, Have a good night and hope pigeions arrive in good condition.

Ahhh, Suzy, glad I am not here alone, I popped off unezpectedly too and came back, noone here, and it was such a good party.

Your evening sounded wongerful June.
Did you hear from Sharon before you went to bed?

Susan, I got the same advice, and was shown how to hold your keys between your fingers to make a weapon. Hospital I worked at brought that class to us, self defense and safety. It has been a long time since I used it, do not go out after dark a lotnothing I really want to do close by. and I hate driving after dark. Nope, not scared, I just do not see as weell.

Sorry to have disappeared. Potty break. I don't drive anywhere strange at night for that same reason, MizT. I just can't see.

Tami said above she was at her son's school for PTA.
Hopefully that means it was just a random act and not directed towards her. Being a teacher is hard enough on your personal property with just incidental and accidental events.

Now, am I alone?

I bet that when Rena and Amber get back to Hotel Rolanda they will be two tired puppies.

I'm off to play poker. Will check back in before I go to bed.

Back again, and had my retail therapy for the day, I have bought a new bedroom suite, now that is going to mean more cleaning and rearranging furniture! What have I done?????

Good Afternoon SA7
Off to read a couple of pages.

Hello, All! I'm just popping back in without reading. I need to go back 3 or 4 pages to catch up.

Ruby BTW...

Both Rena and Amber have accents.. even though they say they dont!!
and they both agree that I have an accent, even though I dont!!

Hi ya Broni....told Tricia half an hour ago that I was off to buy some provisions...have written a list and still gone...have got the can't be bothered's....I wonder how long it is since we had take away....
I'm actually hiding in the naughty corner in easy...

Rola...you just can't believe anyone...can you!!

exactly..

I've also got the brain is in neutral and can't type out a full sentence that makes sense... probably a good reason for staying home? Pity we are all hungry...but we do have toilet paper and dog food...the essentials!!
