Approaching the car to do our regular Sunday errands, I notice the door is unlocked and tell Clive, “Ugh! You left the doors unlocked again!” and as he’s denying it, I see the smashed glass on the backseat and know immediately what has happened.
For the first time in my life, I’ve had my car broken into.
They emptied the glove compartment and searched for things to steal, but with a backseat literally full of toy cars and plastic containers, there was nearly nothing of value. They came away with an iPod adapter and that’s about it. They left the most expensive items- the stroller in the trunk and the carseat. They were even “kind” enough to smash the smallest window (though, it’s also probably the quietest window to break) so hopefully the repair job wont break the bank.
It’s just such a pain in the ass. I don’t want to have to call around for price quotes for repairs and to see if we should go through insurance or not.
Things could have gone worse. They could have broken a larger window, stolen the car, pissed in the car, stolen more things, etc etc. Maybe I should be thankful that I got off easy.
The most surprising thing is that they didn’t want our assortment of plastic containers strewn across the backseat!

More stuff up on Pip Robins. I have to admit- I’m surprised at how well I’ve done in my first month. Eleven sales, and 60 people heart me in less than a month. I hope to keep up the sales and continue to have a successful little part time business. I really enjoy making these accessories. I had no idea I was at all crafty, so this is very much a pleasant surprise.

See my haircut? Yay! Not at all what I’d imagined it’d be, but it’s cute and really easy to manage, so, ten points to my new hairdresser.
