for this to be a upbeat image filled post with a tutorial on something or another.. But at the moment I am pretty jaded. I woke up this morning at 3:30 to a dark figure standing on my partners side of the bed.. To which I kinda yelled theres a guy in our room, which in turn woke the bf up who started to yell and chase the guy out of the bedroom, through the lounge through the closed blinds in the main room and out the courtyard and down the street. The partner came back, given he had run outside naked and without contacts there wasnt much else to do. I was standing there calling the cops when the guy came back just standing there looking inside to get his cap to which I screamed and the bf went out and tackled him down to the grass and then held the guy the cops turned up after a little while and took the guy in. Now that was fine.. I felt like justice would be done.. We get a call at about 7:30 this morning telling us the guy was out on bail and is only banned from one of the streets we live on and not the other ( we live on a corner). This is not comforting at all. I walk around here to get to the bus while most of it is the street he is banned from the one that the bus stop is on isnt.. what about all the other areas.. what if i see him at the shops.. and what if he gets together with his mates after seeing what else we have in the unit and comes back armed and with other people?
I will end my rant there. At the moment I feel physically sick and fairly upset/concered for my own safety within where i live and around it. I am just lucky that my partner was home and I wasn’t alone.
Hi Jenn! Sorry to hear of your misfortune. Glad you are ok! Just think of it as a freak occurrence. Try to enjoy your weekend! Looking forward to more crafty posts
OMG! That is creepy! Can’t blame you for feeling sick/etc! If that were me, I’d want to move! Would that be possible for you? If not, maybe put barbed wire underneath all your windows? Carry pepper spray in your pockets.. get an armed bodyguard..
Thinking happy thoughts for you- (-:
How scary! What did the guy want?
Something like this will definitely cripple me, and force me not to leave the house. But stay strong.
Thanks guys, he stole iphones, digital slr, other bits in a bag wallets etc.. caught the guy.. cops came and took him away and then let the jerk out at 9am on bail. not impressed. cant sleep been up since 330am currently 912pm.. :S I honestly just want to move as far away as possible from here.. seeing some guy robbing you standing at the end of your bed when ur sleeping is a very scary moment. and i am just trying to not think about how much worse things could have gone.
I’ve caught a guy looking through the window into my bedroom before but never actually standing in my house! Very scary! I hope things get better soon!
This is horrible. I would keep pursuing this with the cops. You need to file a formal complaint. You want it on record that you feel violated and unsafe. Keep bugging them about it. I like the idea of pepper spray (the stuff works – don’t ask me how I know…). Luckily the guy wasn’t in my house. He would have gotten more than pepper spray, and probably wouldn’t have lived to tell about it!!! Be brave! Jamie V in MT
