ok, so the mm has had yet another nightmare-ish day.........when lunch slowed down, i reached for my purse, in the spot where i always put it.......to start putting together a bank deposit.....not there.....i went out to my car, thinking i may have left it behind the seat ......not there.....had i locked my car? the cellphpne and the laptop were still there...didn't seem like anyone would have taken the purse but left the laptop/cell phone.....and i always check the door to make sure it is locked.......called my mom to walk down to the house to see if it is still on the counter.......that is happened before.....not there.....i get in the car and drive home myself to look for the purse.....not to be found.......has someone taken it from the kitchen? there was no cash..........i gave the last of it to scw to take to regionals on saturday and had not yet made it to the money machine...... so i started the task of calling the bank to stop debit card/checks.......called to stop bellsouth calling card......called for replacement insurance card....filed police report.............and when i got home there was a message from ecw.......cayle had my purse when she walked in the door at the store from school......she had hooked both her backpack and my purse when she got out of the car this morning........and her teacher had dutifully 'put it up' until cayle came home from school......rather than call me and tell me she was 'putting it up'............at least i have the purse, and everything is inside, and i don't have to stop a new pack of checks......i guess, as recent 'horrific dreams' have shown us, this incdent pales in comparison to the things that can hapen in this world to us and to our children.......i consider myself, right at this moment...one of the luckiest people in the world.......
