I have had my car broken into on a military installation very close to an occupied guard shack. I lost my music and vacation photos and a leather jacket that belonged to a friend. Thieves are so bold. Someone was in my car in the driveway right next to the house once, and stole loose change and left the door open on a frigid winter night. Also a friend's car was broken into while we were on vacation and all of our stuff was taken. You sure do feel violated when someone takes your belongings. I didn't even want to drive my car home from work when it was broken into knowing that a thief had been in it. I have lived in a house without a garage for 30 years. I sure wish I had one.

I went back and read your first post again. Something struck me as odd. The ONE DAY you leave the garage door open, the cable guy happened to be in your house and possibly walked right by your car? And maybe saw your wallet and a check in your car? Just seems coincidental to me. Like I said, I have not had a garage for 30 years and only had change stolen. My car was not locked because of freezing winter temps so it was an open invitation I guess. But I still had the creeps. Someone was in my car. I have a new motto after that.....never leave anything in the car that you would not be willing to say goodbye to. That said, I never ever leave the pups in the car. Not even to run in somewhere for a second. I cringe when ever I see someone has left a pup alone in their car. That is just taking too big of a chance that I will loose them forever.

Ann, I hope they catch these guys soon. I would be soooo pissed that they were trying to use my credit cards. Leads me back to thinking about the cable guy. Perhaps he saw the wallet and that was his real goal?
