What???? I missed that! Deb found Gma's car????? Great!!!
Why in the world would they take the walker and manuscript? Weird thieves.....
Woo Hoo good news....
Today was kind of pay day for me .... I went to Cathryns to pay my bill and bought a shirt for a little less than the Cathryns card bill... I am sooo bad.. Then I went up to the feed store and prepaid for ten bales of hay and delivery.... Its so nice to have the truck running.
Walking around with the crutches is sooo much eaiser than the walker.... It gets my center of gravity over my feet. I wont replace the walker for a while....
Went to food for less to buy groceries for Moms Birthday dinner tomorrow. She wants fried oysters... So dinner is going to be an adventure because Grandma doesnt do fish of any kind except blackened Catfish... And the occasional Fish stick or Breaded deep fried shrimp. So I am going to blacken some Tilapia for her. I have some Ocra too that I am going to cook up.
I tried to call mom around two to ask her a question and the answering machine picked up too quickly .... So After the grocery store I tried agein. No answer... so because I was worried about her I called Grandma.... first thing she said was "Where ... Have you been..." I thought Uh oh my stommach dropped. Then grandma said "We have to go get my car" It took a moment for that to sink in she said the Cops caught the guy in the next town over.... In Lakeside. And we needed to get the car out of impound.
Who ever stole the car was hit with a stupid stick a couple of times.... He took Grandmas plates off and exchanged them for another set that were from .... wait for it..... another stolen car....
So Mom was there at Grandmas house waiting for me to drive them both to the impound yard. Grandma had to go to sign for the car and bring all the paperwork. By the time we were through the paperwork and paying the impound fees we realized we couldnt drive it without License plates.... So we scurried off to get new ones.... one of those satellite shops that sells tags registrations transfers... etc. We were in and out of there in about fifteen minutes. new plates and registration and tags cost a whoppin 45 bucks. Whew....
When I got the keys for the car and looked INside I was stunned. It was as if someone had taken a beautiful heart out of it and transferred a diseased on... Oh the seats and all the mechanics were fine... but they had ripped off the dash cover without even trying to unfasten it with the velcro.... The floor mats were gone ... everywhere there were grease blobs... All the compartments were emptied and filled with their own personal ___ um er crap.... Garage door opener gone Handicapped mirror tag gone walker gone briefcase gone..... The trunk had been cleared out and filled with a Mans jacket firewood and a good strong hand truck. And a babbie with a muffen in it. The back seat has a pile of greasy tools and electronics.... INcluding one of those tools to break out windows incase you drive it off into a lake.... (car theft tools) Oh and they smoked in it there were ashes everywhere.... and stink. Just two weeks and it smelled like someone elses car.... Oh and they had stuck one of those holders for a radar detector on the window....
Soo glad to have it back.... But it needs Serious detailing inside....
deb "pasting pre typed post before the computer freezes..... AGAIN:
Soons we get the "stuff" left its going to go to the detailers.... They have every chemical available to clean whats left. The seats and uppholstry are kind of a valeur.... The floors are a mess too. I dont want to touch anything they left behind....Lisa... that chick is so cute! I want some EE's.
Deb... I'm so glad they found your g-ma's car!!! Get a big container of Chlorox wipes! Don't you hate some strange person all in your space. Ugh! lol I so wish your briefcase and your walker had been in there.![]()
Quote: Caught him less than eight miles away.... While he was driving it.... This is a felony This means guns were pulled and he went to jail so did his passenger. They nailed him this morning and released the car at about one.... it took Grandma a couple of hours to find me....
It seems they took everything that was personal to the car and got rid of it then took everything that was them and replaced it all. So I got some electronics .... Car theft tools... Some sort of charger for cell phones ipads and stuff that can be laid on top.... Then there is the firewood in the trunk and a very very good hand truck. Its like opening the cedar chest you have in your house knowing all too well what is inside.... Treasures, and familiar things ... Only to find a deviled nest of trash and empty things....
I broke down while trying to get grandmas walker into the back .... The tow truck driver came over and helped me put it in and reminded me that it was wayyyy better than most that they find. I had to reset from the feeling of violation.
I cannot imagine the feeling of someone whos had their home robbed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Michelle! May you be spoiled rotten tomorrow!!

I had a lovely day today, had many blessings from God, found a perfect present for Mom that was a gift straight from God, didn't have bad pain today and the sun shone all day long, the sky was gorgeous and it currently has a stunning carpet of stars. It's been a great day!![]()
