    The police served the search warrant yesterday on the apartment where they thought the burglars lived. They found my driver's license and some other stuff that is probably ours. I get to go identify it this afternoon.

    Good news V. I hope you get a lot of your stuff back. If not, at least you'll get some closure.

    It's been hard. I've known for like a month where they live - within spitting distance of my house.

    Well. That's what I get for staying away from T.E. for a month -- I miss out on all the excitement!

    So you knew where they lived? Is that kind of like being Nancy Drew, warting the police to do something? (Glad you didn't end up hog-tied in the trunk of a yellow roadster, though.)

    Congrats!

    Oh V. This is good news! Were the burglars arrested?

    Are you going to go to the apartment? My neighbor was robbed a few years ago. She had to go to the bad guys' apartment to identify her stuff. She said it was really creepy! One of her picture frames was on a table with somebody else's picture in it. She saw her stuff all over the place in little bits and pieces--microwave, TV, etc. But the worst was that her comforter was on the bed! Yuck!

    I'm hoping they were arrested.

    I'm going to the police station. It's weird that they kept my DL.

    That is wonderful news, V! Maybe this will help put the whole bad incident behind you. Hope the rotten thieves get what they deserve.
