Don't laugh...it happened to me! He didn't use paper bags, but black garbage bags and it took him 8 trips to get them. While doing this, he had cooked up a scheme w/a co-worker to come to our home and help him move out furniture while I was at work. Luck may have it, I was fed up w/him coming there while I was at work taking the groceries that I had purchased, along w/soap, shampoo, body lotion, etc. and had contacted a locksmith to change not only the regular locks but the deadbolts as well. The day the guy called and left a message on my answering service, the locks had been changed and poor little Rip couldn't answer the phone. I called the guy back that night and informed him that Rip would not be moving any furniture out of our home and that he was to not call my number again as Rip would not be able to answer his calls. That night, I called ADT and had an alarm system put in.
Yes, it may sound funny, but it does happen and I did have it happen to me. It's not funny when you come home and discover the note pads, pens, soap, etc. are missing and you, yourself had just purchased them w/your own money. No, when they are nuts, you can't expect them to be honest...that's why you have to take care of yourself and your assets.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
