not my bike and not by a stranger, it was a person i believed to be a good friend. i trusted him once too often it seems, he recently took me shopping when i wasnt feeling the best, as i was getting out to go shopping he said he had an appt to go to and would be back in 10 minutes, as usual i left my smokes and keys on the floor of his car. i dint think nothing of it. the next morning i noticed my lockup cabinet was slightly open, which was strange but being in a hurry i just done a quick check of the drawers for my coin collection among other things and locked it back up while chastising myself for forgetting to lock it.
the next day i noticed i was missing a roll of toilet paper and a new tube of toothpaste, my youngest had just gone to live with my cousin due to my health and his being at the rebel stage of life, so i thought maybe the boy took them as i told him to take his new toothbrush with him, didnt think much more of it.
about a week ago i went looking for the angle grinder to cut a bit of c channel for my home made flower pot heater, and couldnt find it, now this got me to thinking because it was given to me by the guy who robbed me, we brought his daughter a crissy present and gave her a few other things suited to her age so thats why he gave us the grinder, G the person in question was also the last person to use the grinder, not that that matters, as he knows where the tools are kept anyway as he does, used to do all my welding work, he wont be doing anymore.
yesterday i went to the cabinet to do a quick head count of the coins i wanted to list on ebay, and noticed i have about half a kilo of lose coins gone, around $400 purchase value about $700 retail value.
to say my head is in a rage is putting it mildly, i have stopped myself going to his place several times already, im older and in bad health but nothing a stick and the element of surprise wouldnt equalize, but my upbringing gets the better of me and i want to give him a chance to repay what he took, and than my blood pressure goes up and i want to pay someone to visit him, underneath all the anger something keeps saying give him a chance or go to the cops, which would be a total waste of time in my eyes, though im guessing G's fingerprints are still all over it, even though its hidden away where it cant get touched unless you want to open it.
right now we have a thunder storm overhead and thats pretty much what my mind is like. im normally placid but have been on assault charges once before because i found the guy who broke into my flat at the time, i beat the charges by the way as he provoked the situation in front of witness's.
i just dont know which way to go. i would hate to have him charged and locked up as he is a single dad, but i also cant feel comfortable within myself if i let it go.
not sure which words describe how i feel but i wont type the ones im thinking of lol grrrr angry sad almost fit :wink:
