Gone, In Broad Daylight

I have never lived on my own. When I moved out of my parents house in my early twenties, it was into an apartment that I shared with my brother and sister. From there I moved back in with my mom, and then from there I moved in with my husband. I am not sure if its a good or bad thing that I have never been on my own, and I'm not sure how happy I would have been. It's true that I love my "me" time when Junior is at work and the kids are in school, I also like that I have someone to play games with, or watch movies with. I think I would have been lonely living on my own.

My older sister, Tami, did move out into her own apartment for a little while after she graduated from high school. I am not sure how long that lasted, but eventually she moved back home. Now remember, we lived in NY at this time. I remember the day she moved. She had a friend of hers with a truck help get the stuff from one place to the next, but they were in a rush to get it done, so they just put all her stuff on our front porch. They finished the last load in the early morning hours, and were too tired to bring it in the house, so they left it all outside.

We woke up the next morning, expecting things to be missing, but everything was there. Instead of bringing it in right away, we made breakfast. About an hour later, we opened the door to start bringing stuff in, and most of it was gone! In the hour it took us to eat breakfast, someone backed a truck up to our front porch, and threw most of the stuff in it. Our neighbor watched the whole thing, but didn't think anything of it, because he thought we were getting rid of it all.

What I find scary is that we were awake inside the house, and it was light outside. I don't even want to think about what could have happened if we had opened up the door while they were still there. I mean, what would they have said or done?

Luckily, nothing bad happened that day besides my sister losing all her jewelry and her kitchen set. It makes me think, though, that it might not be a bad idea to invest in a wireless security system. Protect America has many different packages, so it is easy to find the one that best fits your needs. They have three different packages that require no upfront money, and their monthly monitoring frees are very reasonable. I like the bronze package. It comes with a talking control panel, seven entry points, internal siren, door chime, battery backup, one button arming, three window decals and a yard sign. I wonder if a yard sign would have stopped the guys who stole my sisters stuff?
