Well not quite if I look outside but it is 11 days until I head for the Sun. My cruise out of San Diego leaves in 11 days. Did I say it is only 11 days till my cruise. Not that I am counting as the Carnival Website provides a countdown for me, now isn’t that a great service. Carnival is in the Eastern time zone at Midnight it is 10 Days!
It is hard to believe we are in November already. It seems like yesterday that I booked my December cruise and in less than 3 weeks I will be sailing to the sun for a week of relaxation. While the last few weeks have been a very difficult time for me I know a relaxing break will help me get refocused and start to move on. Life is not the same without my little buddy to take care of and to give me a reason to go home. But I know over time I will get past this and I think the cruise will be part of my therapy.
This will be my third cruise and I have started to believe this is the best way to vacation and probably my first choice in the future. Not sure if I will try other companies or stick with Carnival which so far I have enjoyed the experiences and the prices make it very affordable. Not sure what is on the horizon travel wise but I can foresee another cruise in the spring to maybe the Caribbean or the Bahamas.
What is the saying about it when it rains it pours….I came home last night and nothing seemed out of place except in the middle of my bedroom carpet was a leaf. Now it may seem strange that a leaf on my carpet would catch my attention but for some reason it got me thinking. As I looked around my room I noticed a drawer not quite closed correctly. This triggered me to look around my house, I grabbed my large Mag-light and started to go through my house. In my basement I discovered a window in the back of my house had been pushed in. When I looked closer I saw that the window had been pried off of its tracks.
I put the window back together and immediately started a search of my entire house checking all areas as I now knew someone had been and could possibly still be in my house. After an exhaustive search I found no one in my home but did find another window unlatched and my back door unlocked. During my search I noticed my valuables were untouched which caused my to look deeper to make sure I had not missed anything. At this point I think the shock had worn off and I got very angry as I realized my home had been violated.
It looks like the scum must have been scared off because they did not get any of my valuables, they just took my feeling of safety which we all feel in our homes.
