Last summer our garage was broken into and gas cans were stolen. There were tools, a lawn mower, golf clubs...so while we were annoyed that a screen was broken, it wasn't the end of the world. And since then, we're very diligent about keeping the windows locked, door locked and car doors closed.
Well, last night, we're out working and I realize my bike is missing. And it's not even my bike! I borrowed it from a friend for my race! I freaked out...just sooo annoyed and soooo hurt that people can do that.
And we realized it must've been while we were home! Someone had to walk up our driveway, past our house and into the garage and back out. Our entire yard is fenced in, so they had to have walked past our house and we were inside! It's the only time our garage doors were open.
The cops said they probably won't be able to find it, and even if they do, it's probably been spray painted.
Now I have to pay my friend back for her bike, instead of buying myself a new one. I'm soooo mad and just feel so violated.
Thanks for letting me vent. I just can't wait to move out of that neighborhood.
Re: Can't wait to move!
That is seriously horrible and actually gets me sick to my stomach thinking how people violate others. I'm sorry that it was a friend's bike and you have to pay for that one instead of getting you one.
