Expert Advice -- Get Out of the House!

Deb:

As Freckles clutched me, I wandered through the house looking over the damage.

Now, let me add here that I have read the magazine articles and seen the daytime talk shows on safety where they warn you about just such moments. If you walk into your home and suspect that someone might have broken in, the first thing you should do is GET OUT OF THE HOUSE! After all, the burglars might still be around. They could be hiding in a closet, ready to jump out and grab you. Or they might not have heard you enter and might hurt you when you surprise them.

Yes, all the safety experts say to get out, run to a neighbor's house, and call the police.

However, when my moment arrived, is this what I did? No, it is not. I don't think my mind fully comprehended what had happened and was searching for some other explanation.

Been through it twice... such a sickening feeling to know some stranger who did not care about you was in there messing with things and taking things.

Guess we will hear more of the story ... since I think I remember this happening awhile ago, I think all turned out OK. Must feel good to snuggle Freckles ...
