The Grinch came to my house...

I am so mad, I just have to vent somewhere. We decorated our front porch with inflatable snowmen, and this year I bought a big, 6ft santa. Well some #$%X had the nerve to come up on my front porch, untie the 6 teathers that were holding him, unplug it and carry it off. Now it only cost $25 from Wal Mart, but thats not the point!!!! It was there when we went to bed at 11:30 pm and was gone when we got up at 6am. They also took the timer that was attached!. We live out in the country on 3 acres, and sit about 500 ft back from the road, so they were really bold coming up and doing that. They didn't take my ugly snowmen, just my new Santa.  I called the sheriff (ha) who took a report but wasn't concerned. My concern is that if they were that brave, whats next? My rockers? Breaking in? We even have security lights, and that didn't deter them either!. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Thanks for letting me vent.

Oh my goodness Barb! They were certainly not scared to go with all the lights on either! I hope it was just pranksters but time to do something about security I think - maybe something that makes a noise that will wake you all up and scare the heck out of them if a sensor is tripped...... just an idea because I know it is the violation rather than the act that is so scary....

Hang in there and don't let them take away your Christmas spirit!

Barb,
  Sorry to hear about someone stealing your santa. They had to pretty bold to take something from your yard with security lights. Do  you have a dog? If not, maybe a dog may prevent more incidents
