Big Bummer

Two pairs of shoes, two pairs of pants, two long sleeve shirts, a cardigan/sweater, three dresses, four shirts, two skirts, some jewelry, a scarf….um that’s about all I can recall of the stuff missing out of my suitcase.

Amy came yesterday and brought me my big black suitcase, which I had left at CROW because I didn’t want to travel with it. The first thing she said to me was “I feel horrible, I think someone got into your case.”
Oh great. I immediately opened it to reveal just a mess with things everywhere and clothes un-folded and I know for a fact that I had everything neatly packed away and in it’s right place. So to say the least, that list that I wrote above is just what I can remember that I had and I’m pretty sure that’s only part of it. But I guess if I can’t remember anymore than I won’t really miss them hey? The weird thing is that I’m not really upset about the clothes- okay I am, but I keep telling myself they are just material stuff and not really important- but I feel very violated and angry that someone would just take stuff from me. Grrrr!!!! Okay enough of that.

I am no longer alone!! Amy is here and we have not stopped laughing and being silly since she got here. Yesterday I had to literally stop and massage my facial muscles because they hurt from laughing and smiling so much. I was in actual pain. It was weird because I never realized how much I didn’t speak or laugh when I was alone. Let’s just say I am so happy to have Amy here. Today we are going to the beach and possibly to Ballito for dinner. Ballito is this tiny coastal town that is just full of resorts. condo housing, antiques- very posh and quaint.

I shall write probably once more before I leave to go home in five days. Crazy how time flies by.

Maybe your clothes thief took them to Goodwill!

I feel bad for you, but hopefully whoever has them needed them more than you.

I'm glad Amy is there with you and you are having a great time! Thank her (for me).

The countdown continues!!
Love from Iowa,
MOM XOXOXOXOXXOXO
