    Yes I have called the police.when cashed up etc realised it was more than I thought taken. But I am fine it's only money!! I will have to try and sell some makes etc on Facebook or eBay etc and try and get some cash back asap though as days takings/float notes gone.
    Three months now I haven't paid myself a wage, looks like it will be another week or two before I do! Such is life. It could have been worse.
    (Memories or shot guns when I was running a pub, for instance).
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Police have visited this morning.
    I managed to do 6 pairs of trousers hems, 2 zips in cushion covers and a skirt hem at home, before work.
    But taken forever to do a jacket alterations since I came to work with several interruptions from police and insurance company.
    Just having lunch and then more alterations.
    Mojo is a struggle as feeling as grey as the day today.
    Did get a £5 tip for one job though which helps revive the views of human kindness.
    Also been given a storage box randomly for my buttons etc from an old lady who was going to throw it out otherwise.

    Feeling rather deflated and fed up tonight.
    Feel as if I am at the bottom of a great big dung heap at the moment.
    Let's hope that I wake up in a better frame of mind.

    Not surprised you are feeling defated & fed up.
    There has been a lot happening, including the break in.
