a stolen weekend.

So.... my wallet was stolen. saturday morning I woke up, puffy eyed from crying from loosing my citizenship card and my children's care-cards, not to mention all my ID to call VISA and report the card stolen and yep 600-700 in gas charges late at night.
 I remembered having it at the reception friday night, and the visa was charged at about 11.30 pm on. So yea, reception - either a guest of the 50 or so people there or an employee but the venue is swearing by their employees.
Which I haven't placed blame on anyone, I just know one of those visa charges came from a Husky and it had a street address. I know I could get that video surveillance and the Bride and Groom already said without a doubt they would look at the tape as well as the venue owner. So I call in a police report as Visa advised me to. I called all my banks and they cancelled the debt cards as well as my hubby2be, so he of course went to use it at his first day of school and couldn't get lunch...

Anyway, I got a call back from the venue owner later that day, she said someone had also tried to break into her office that night. (what a scum-bag but whatever) So, I call the police back, say "look if we get that surveillance, we can get an ID." The police say "oh in this case.. Visa is the victim since it was their card that was stolen"! HAHA my property and ID was stolen too! I'm the worst arguer though, basically I'm too nice and tend to take people's crap unless I've had time to think over my options. So I call Visa. Visa insist that my charges will be reversed and that I won't be responsible. I explain about the venue and how they can ID the person. They keep telling me not to worry and that it's okay. I hang up. WASTE OF TIME.

So, finally I talk to hubby2be on the phone, he says he'll go with me on Tuesday (tomorrow) to the police station and we'll get them to go get the servallience. I think in this case, it would be worth it to ID this person. It is someone my Bride and Groom trusted and now... they feel pretty raped of their friendship. Not to mention stole from someone they hired and trusted with a big part of their day. ugh... so i spent all of saturday calling around and reporting my cards stolen. I'm worried about Identity theft and the whole nine yards so I hope they just chucked my wallet, oh please CHUCK MY WALLET.

My biggest thing was, why didn't they just take the cash and visa and leave the wallet? It is so sad the way people behave. I don't understand how you do that to someone period but why make it worse for someone. I have sure learned from this experience, I will never carry my wallet around to a wedding again. Just my DL and maybe a care-care in case I need it, in a little card holder on my hip or something like that.

If you want to know about the rest of the weekend... hubby2be spent all of Saturday night studying procedures on what to do when he gets to accidents and Sunday he went off to school again. I took my baby and toddler to my grandma's for our newborn's babyshower. It was really nice and he got alot of cute clothes!



 Hubby didn't study Sunday night and took a break, which was nice (I'm quickly starting to see how my new life will be with a husband as a paramedic - this past 2 weeks i've hardly seen him and it's about to continue like this - but he really wants this and I want it for him too.)

By today, I was wiped. I haven't slept-in.. in about 4 weeks. Today I attempted it, and thought maybe I would if hubby2be would get up with the kids but he was too tired and had to work at 5pm today so I got up. By 11.30am I was falling over almost asleep while I fed the baby and watched our toddler rip our house apart. I crawled back into bed and asked if he could get up and watch them. I slept till 1.30pm today, then sat and waited to replace my DL at driver's services, hubby2be got his first stethoscope and blood pressure (thing) - I don't know the technical name. Then I mailed a couple invites and it was time for him to go to work. I never got a chance to go down and see my horse, I hope I do tomorrow. The dogs ate their last bowls of food tonight so that's on the list now too. I don't think there's enough hours in the day anymore. And right now I feel guilty because I should be editing photos!

this weekend was so nuts, i chewed my two fingers on my right hand down to pain (which I normally DO NOT DO) and now i'm wearing band-aids and polysporn in hopes they will stop hurting and heal faster... on top of it, I just found out tonight I may need to find my horse another barn *drops head to desk*...

have a good week! sleep-in if you can (for me)!


(one) of our dogs. wish i could crash like that.
