This is an odd, busy month for me.
While Dori was riding around in a police car as part of a citizen’s police academy experience, I was watching a policeman enter my house with weapon drawn.
Got home Friday afternoon to find the back door had been forced open. I called the police and got out; because I had not been through the whole house, they went it to search and clear it before I went back in. Essentially, my son’s game system was stolen and nothing else. Probably a kid who had heard through the grapevine that he had a new system. Sigh. ARGH! Sigh.
The worst part is, well, there are two worst parts: first, my son took it personally and second, the door is incredibly hard to repair. It is old and the threshold needed to be replaced anyway, but not the wood above the door. It’s an old house, so kicking in the door skewed the frame and it was out of square. All in all, it’s a royal pain for my DH to repair.
Sure wish I’d been watching it like Dori, instead, of being on the calling end of that phone call.
Besides that–I”ll be in and out a lot for spring break, school visits, family stuff, etc. the next two weeks.

Glad everyone’s okay, and that the thief was long gone by the time you got home!
