What a Week

Where in the world have I been?  Well, not running, that's what.  Quite frankly because I'm super stressed...my house got broken into on Tuesday and a bunch of stuff was taken (and somethings, like ALL of my digital pictures from 2005 til now and my Grandma's jewelry box cannot be replaced).  :(  I'm a sad bunny.  It's so weird.  It's such an awful feeling that a stranger violated your personal space and touched all of your things.  Of course, my constant running companion, Gus, was among the list of stuff M.I.A.
My GUS! :(
Gone.
I'm furious. And of course I'd love to take my frustration out on a run, but we've been nonstop busy since the burglary. ERGH.

All I can say is I'm just glad my Murphy cat didn't run out the open back door or get hurt by the intruders.  I don't even want to go there...

Well, this Sunday is the Mercer Half with some wonderful blogging running buddies!  I'm looking forward to some laughs and fun.  In the meantime, I'll catch up with my blog reading when I can get a chance.

Bunch of ^%^&$*#9 !! I hope they catch them, and I hope it's not too much of a headache replacing your things. But super sad about the irreplaceables. :(

Tiffany said...

I'm sorry - that really stinks. I don't think I ever want to live in a big town. I enjoy living in a small town where I don't even have keys to our house!

Morgan said...

Oh Zoe! That is terrible! I am so sorry to hear that! I will keep my fingers crossed that the crooks get caught. I can't imagine what you must be feeling, that must be so hard and you both must feel so vulnerable. My thoughts and prayers are with you! xoxo

Miguel said...

Aww!! Sorry to hear about this! This really sucks. Get a good run and get rid of all though frustrations

Rachael said...

Not Gus too! This is terrible. Greta is extremely upset right now.

Nicole Joy said...

I'm so sorry that happened to you. :-( It is an awful feeling to be violated that way! The only good thing that comes from a burglary is having more appreciation for your belongings. Cheer up pretty lady!

Erica said...

Oh Zoe I'm so sorry! That's awful. What a complete bummer.

Libby said...

Oh no :( What a strange burglar(s) that they would steal Gus, definitely wouldn't be on the top of my list. I hope the police are super helpful and they can find your stuff.

L.B. said...

I'm sorry for your losses, Zoë. As someone who has had four cars broken into and one car outright stolen, I know what you mean about being violated.

Hope you can get some of your stuff back, but i don't blame you for being sad and upset.

Lauren said...

That sucks I hope they get them!

Jill said...

I can't believe that...I am so, so sorry. Having somone invade your your space is worse than losing your stuff...it's such a bad feeling.

I am so sorry that you have to deal with that. I'm glad that I will get to meet you on Sunday and we will LAUGH so it will be a fun ending to a really rough week.

Melissa said...

You poor thing!
Our home was broken into about 5 years ago and it sucks! They stole my camera which was full of pics of LM's first haircut and other really great stuff.

I hope they catch the jackass.

Steel Springs said...

How terrible! I'm so sorry that you're going through this.

Glenn Jones said...

What a bummer. I can understand fencing the jewelry and electronics to support a drug habit, but what would they do with a bunch of digital pictures?

What a bunch of cretins. Karma baby. Eventually it will come back to bit them.

Michelle said...

So sorry to hear about that! So glad that everyone is safe, though. Hang in there. Good luck this weekend!

Poor Gus too :(

Good luck on the Mercer Half!

Stephanie said...

Zoe...that is just horrible!!! Do they have any idea who did it???

Hang in there...and make some time for yourself to get out there and run....it sounds like you need it!

Kenley said...

At least you were not hurt, but that still is unfortunate. I am glad that your safety was not compromised. At the same time, I hope bad karma on the people who did that. Have fun at Mercer half. I am sure that will cheer you up some. Take care.

Sarah said...

Oh no Zoe! I'm so sorry, that must be so violating :( At least you were not hurt in this and Murphy is okay. It is so disgusting that people could do that....

I was hoping my Garmin could meet Gus on Sunday. I'm looking forward to seeing you though! :)
