Seriously! Someone Stole My Truck Today!

WA Family,

I just don't get it! I can't win for losing. And today I don't know how much more I can take! I have to talk to somebody about this before my head explodes.

Let me tell you what happened today about 5 hours ago. Well, in my timezone, that was at 11 AM. My best friend needed me to run an errand to the gas station, which is about 3 minutes from my home.

As I went into the gas station for what she wanted. I jumped back into my truck to head home. Before driving off, I realized I left some items at the register. I left my truck running to go back into the station to get items I left (that was the worse thing I did). Walking back out to my truck, my truck was gone.

A man that was just released from jail this morning, took it upon himself to take my truck for a joy ride, I guess. When I came out the store which was about seconds, my truck was gone. I thought I was seeing things at first.

Until a woman started yelling from the pumps," That man just stole your truck!" Everybody at this gas station knows me very well. Therefore, as the mountain people, which I love, they went after him. Some stood back with me to help call the police.

I don't know if you read my post from yesterday about me quitting cigarettes. I should have smoked a whole pack within those 5 hours with my stress level going through the roof. Actually, I have not lit not one cigarette. I'm still trying to hold on though...

One thing I really want to do, is cry my eyes out. Then I keep asking myself what is that going solve? Nothing....

I know some of you may be thinking that I shouldn't be upset, my insurance will pay for it. They would have if I didn't turn my insurance off this past Friday because I was selling my truck by this Wednesday. Well, not anymore.

Today has been a day, that I wasn't expecting at all. Someone stole my truck and then tries to wreck it to get a way. As my truck hits a big ditch and cannot move. That ass leaves my truck to run away from the police on foot. I felt my truck was on an episode of,"COPS."

All I can do right now is shake my head in disbelief of all this mess...

The lesson of this story is: always be aware of your surroundings at all times. Don't leave your car running, not even for a second. It doesn't matter if you know your hometown like the back of your hand. Be cautious of everything and everyone.

Til Next Time Family...
