We just painted the front door, resided the house and got the place looking pretty spiffy.... It was the worst looking ugly house in blocks maybe miles... baby poo gold and dark brown. It is a tri-level built in 1975 - nobody ever painted it - not even once since it was built - pretty bad shape. The home wreckers keep coming and bashing in the doors, first the front door, then the back door glass - glass all over the place... They didn't get in - DH believes in double dead bolts by a glass door. Now he put up a security door on the back - he's thinking about a security door on the front, too - so I asked if he was going to do bars on all the windows next... I should paint up the door they broke and hang it in the dead tree out front... I'm thinking about painting it up with 'all the drugs are flushed down the toilet come and get them' or 'this house is protected by armed guards and a pit bull one day a week - you guess which day' If I hang the door on the tree there would be glass go every where more so than it already is all over the place so I doubt if that is going to happen. I just want to know what they think they were going to get? We don't own a tv - just an old computer my son cobbled together.... we don't keep money around... there just isn't much I would imagine they would want... Maybe they want DHs old radio he got paint and drywall mud on? I highly doubt if they want sewing machines or fabric. DD says just leave the door standing open a few times and let them get what ever they think they want... it might be cheaper than replacing doors all the time and make it easier when we move if there is less stuff... We are talking about 5 doors so far. This is really getting old. When we had a dog they got in and then fed the dog a bunch of dog biscuits. Stupid dog. Getting another dog wouldn't have made one bit of difference. We were on vacation - a dog would have been with us or in doggie care somewhere.
