I'm sorry but there won't be a What's up Wednesday this week. My wallet was stolen last night and I have the fun nightmare of spending today replacing all the goodies and tidbits we all carry in our wallet.
AAuuuugggghhhh!
At least we got the lady on survellience video!! Got all the cards cancelled so that's covered. The worst one out of the bunch is getting a new Driver's License!! (on the bright side, maybe the picture will be better!!) Gotta replace the grocery store cards, and the Costco card and the.....Oh man, I just realized that they got all my punch cards for the quilt shops and scrap stores AND my Subway punch card....and I had a FREE one on there!
I'm am so bummed!

Dear Laura,
ReplyDeleteAs one of your fans I would like to say: good luck. I'm very sorry you got robbed. Hope that is the correct word because my English is not very good. I'm from Holland (the Netherlands) you see.
Hope everything will work out ok in the end.
Love your videos and I watch them every week !
Hugs,
Jolande from Holland
Argh Laura that really stinks! It's so unfortunate too that this had to happen...AND a free sub from Subway! Good luck in getting all of these things back in order!
ReplyDeleteHi Laura,
ReplyDeleteAs if you needed that to happen! So sorry you have to deal with that - hope they catch the lady with the naughty fingers. All I can say is....Breathe Laura, Breathe, things will get better :0) Hope you have a better day! I can't wait to see more of your videos, Love, Love them!
Oooh Laura, I'm so sorry to hear you got robbed - that's really terrible. However, you sound amazingly up-beat and positive about it and are obviously maintaining your sense of humour!
ReplyDeleteSometimes bags and purses turn up later, with the money and credit cards removed, but everything else intact - because it isn't worth anything to the criminal and they can't sell it. There's always hope, I suppose... In the UK sometimes people hand such things in to the police station and you can claim them.
You take care.

Sorry to hear this Laura, hope you can get everything sorted soon and that they are able to catch the thief!

What a terrible thing to have happen. Many years ago I had my wallet taken and it's a terrible feeling. It will take a while before you realize everything that was in there. I would go to get something or show my daughters picture to someone only to remember it was gone. Hope your week gets better and we look forward to next weeks "What's up Wednesday".
ReplyDeleteoh Laura, I'm so sorry this happened to you. How violating that must feel. I hope you're like me and don't carry any cash, just plastic. I hope they catch the person too. Most of all I hope you're OK.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kristina
Oh, no. So sorry to hear this. Twyla aka stampfox
ReplyDeleteOh No how terrible is that!
ReplyDeleteSo many things to fix up now
It is such a pain, I'm glad your OK though!
that's the main thing
Will miss you this week but good luck with getting that all organised again!
OH NO! That is awful!! I am so sorry this happened to you. Good luck getting it all canceled and replaced! Hope they catch her!!
ReplyDeletesorry..i had this happen to me a long time ago..dont forget along with the police reports to call the big 3 creditors and place a fraud alert. That way any new accounts have to be verified first. It also helps slow all those nasty inquiries.
ReplyDeleteHave "fun" today getting the pieces of our lives back in order. Again I'm sorry this happened.
Sorry to hear this happened, even though it is frustrating to report, make calls, etc. and all that it is involved...on the positive side nothing happened to you, and that is the most important thing.

Last weekend someone stole the front license plate off of our truck!!! I can't believe people, they could put all of that energy into doing good, not evil! Sorry about this, sending you some good vibes for an easy time getting things straightened out!
ReplyDeleteUgh! What a nightmare! Hope they catch the thief! It would be so much easier if everyone were honest...but alas, that only happens in La-la land! I'm so sorry this happened to you! :(
ReplyDeleteOooh Laura, I'm so sorry to hear you got robbed! Hope they get the lady who did it. I am sending you some good vibes for an easy time getting things straightened out again.
ReplyDeleteOHHH NOO! I hope that they catch the person! Maybe by some stroke of luck they will catch the person and everything will be right where you left it in your wallet. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry this happened to you, but I'm so glad you are personally safe. This has happened to so many of my friends, that I do not carry a purse anymore. I have everything in a small wallet and I put everything else in my pockets. I was surprised that I really did not miss hauling around that purse.
ReplyDeletePrayers for your sanity!
I'm so sorry to hear. I hope all goes well for you and hope they catch her. Unreal. : (
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear of this Laura.
ReplyDeleteSome folks just don't give a hoot..
So sorry to hear about your situation Laura... Hope all turns out well for you and they catch the person!
ReplyDeleteOh wow so sorry to hear this! Something very similar happen to my step-mother and it not only taught her a lesson but myself. Most of us woman carry Many many items in our wallets and when and event like this happens it's not always easy to remember just exactly what was all in it. I have a journal card with a list of all the cards I carry in my wallet so if I should ever lose/misplace/or like your situation it gets stolen I know who to call and have the account numbers. This would be a fabulous project opportunity for you to think upon. I hope they are able to identify the thief from the video and she is held accountable. If local authorities can not God sure will.
ReplyDeleteHow unsetteling is that...one of the best tips I got was to make a copy of the card I had in my wallet front and back... put that in a safe place...I hoped I would never have to use it..but I did back in '05...It was great...I was in Fla. attending a friends funeral and My hubby was in MI...I was able to act fast to put a stop to any unauthorised use...with no ID I wasn't able to fly home...but because I had a police report I was able to fly out the next day. So I'm really hoping things go smoothly for you.
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your wallet. I had my purse and contents stolen a couple of years ago. It was a pain to cancel everything! Hang in there.

Laura,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your wallet getting stolen. Don't people realize how hard it is to get everything cancelled and replaced. It is so irritating!!!! I hope you get everything back in order soon. I love your video's. Thank you for taking the time to do them. I have learned so much from you. Take care and God bless you!!
The WORST news..........nothing can replace this horrible incident. I do hope they catch her.....you need karate lessons!!! May the luck be with you and everything is returned...oh, right - you're not Irish....well, maybe you are today?...like you had nothing to do? We were all waiting in anticipation to What's up Wednesday....not the news bullitin flash about such bad news. Get glammed up for your driver license photo - a spa day? Treat yourself.....YOU deserve it. With every "down" there is an "up : I know, you are are going to win the lottery and be a millionare!!! Sigh........we all feel your pain!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Patti
so sorry to hear about your terrible situation. hope you get through the worst and put it behind you..hugs from the UK Janet
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about this! I'm glad you weren't hurt though.
Take care,
Tricia Davis
Oh Laura...that just sucks! The good news is you weren't hurt and you were able to cancel everything quickly. What is wrong with people? Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI am soooo sorry for your loss. I can feel your pain. As a side note, I LOVE your stuff and am so impressed with your creativity and talent. Now, about your punch cards....if you have a copy of the police report, take it to the stores you go to and tell them about how much you had on the cards, they should honor it. I took the police report to my favorite stores and all but one took my word for what I thought was on the cards. If you go there enough to have a card, chances are they know you well enough to trust you. Just a thought. Luckily, here in Kansas, they just use the picture on your last license and send you a new one. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh, I am sooo sorry for your loss. What a horrible mess. That happened to me awhile back. I now, only carry copies of pictures in my wallet, made photo copies of all cards (credit, insurance, etc). If you have a police report, you should be able to take it to the places you have punch cards for. Show them the report and let them know about what you had on the cards. All but one gave me new punch cards for what I said. If you visit there enough to have a punch card, they should know you well enough to trust you. Good luck! I cannot thank you enough for all your creativity and talent and that you share it so freely with us!
ReplyDeleteHi Laura,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your stuff getting stolen, i've had it happen to me and it just flips your world upside down. Hope you get your stuff in order soon!
Cristina
Sorry for your mishap today. It really just burns me up the things people do. Why didn't she just ask you for some money or something. Hope you get your important stuff back like your punch cards. LOL.
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear what happened. It's a big pain in the rear to cancel and replace everything. I was traveling once with a group of 4 and we had all our wallets stolen and left with zero money and was in another state. Not fun.... Hope they catch the person that did it.
Bummer, sorry you have to go through all of that. THe punch cards are a huge loss, hope they are able to catch the person.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a better day!
Thinking of you as you get your essentials back in order. So sorry to hear about what happened but so glad you were not hurt. Sending hugs your way :)
ReplyDeleteOh Laura - I feel so sorry for you. I had mine stolen once and trying to find 3 pieces of ID when everything is in your wallet is tuff!!! I sure hope tomorrow will be much better for you. Mary
ReplyDeleteAwwwww.... I am so sorry. My purse got stolen by a car full of teenage girls one time, and I felt so violated. Did you have your keychain mini attached? : / sorry for sick joke... just trying to put a bit of light on the subject. Good luck with the DMV picture. Mine always look like I am an escaped convict! Thank you for all the other Wednesdays and fabulous Fridays! Big Hug!
ReplyDeleteAwwwww Man! So sorry to hear that Laura. I don't get why bad things happen to good people. Hopefully all this gets resolved soon for you. Many Good wishes and Prayers to you and yours. Besides I think you share more than enough with us so take a breather even though it is not a in a good circumstance. (Hugs)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry this has happened :(
ReplyDeleteSending you good thoughts, hugs, and happy joy bubbles your way !
Sorry to hear that this happened to you. I hope that you get your stuff back ... but if you don't, I hope your replacement cards and items come quickly and painlessly.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your purse. I know the headache that can be replacing everything. I started watching your videos on You Tube about a year ago and I decided it was time I checked out your blog. I just wanted to let you know your videos are so inspiring! I love your tutorials. You have helped me make so many things. Thank You for all the tutorials and keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI hope they catch the lady that got your purse.
God Bless, JoAnn
HI Laura,
ReplyDeleteSo....sorry to hear this. What's most important is that you weren't physically harmed in any way. I really really dislike a thief! I pray you get everything back.
Laura, I'm SOOO sorry this happened!! Did they catch the perpetrator?? Sure hope so!!! That just stinks!!! Hope you get it all straightened out soon!! Don't worry about WUW!! Just take care of what you need to do!!
ReplyDeleteSending you lots of (((((Hugs)))))

I so sorry to hear what happen to you. You are such a wonderful happy go lucky individual. Nothing make me more mad then when someone steals as we all work so hard today for what we have, then we have coward who can be so bold to steal from someone, and take something they are not entitled to. It gets my blood boiling. I hope with her on video they can catch her and maybe somhow, someway you can get back your purse for the things that wouldn't matter to her. Again so sorry, but glad you were not hurt either. I beleive those who do wrong in life get back two folds for something they do wrong. On a happier note thanks for all your wonderful and creative idea you create and share with all of us, your the best
ReplyDeleteOh noooo!! I know how that feels. My purse was stolen once. I was so mad! I tried running after him but it was snowy and cold and I had been standing at a bus stop for half an hour waiting for the bus, which was late. When I tried running after him my feet were so frozen I could barely walk let alone run. A curse upon your thief! May Karma bite her back soon.
