if you know me you know that i wear my favorite ugg boots pretty much everyday from october until april.
two weeks ago i went out in my garage to put them on while i ran sassy girl up to school. to my surprise they were not there. so i checked my bedroom, nothing. my basement, nothing. scored my entire house, nothing. i would be lying if i said i didn't throw a mini tantrum. hey, it was cold out and i had dressed myself with the intent to wear my uggs.
i spent the next few days tearing apart my house, retracing my steps and interrogating my husband about if he knew where they were. he has always been jealous of my warm feet. after looking everywhere and not finding them, corey and i came to the conclusion that someone must have stolen them out of my garage!
my neighbor told me to file a police report. i did. the man at the police department asked me if i wanted an investigator to be assigned the case. i am still not sure if i sensed a hint of sarcasm in his voice. anyway, i said no. i already felt silly as it was to be filing a police report about a pair of four year old boots.
besides reporting it i proclaimed the thievery on facebook, warned all my neighbors and seriously contemplated starting a neighborhood watch.
on saturday, i decided to clean my messy room. there has been a small suitcase in our room since september and when i picked it up to return it to its rightful place in the basement closet, i thought, "gee this suitcase sure feels heavy. i wonder what is in it?" as i opened it up out tumbled my favorite bra, a sweatshirt, a bath toy, a highchair seat cover and my long lost UGG BOOTS!
I almost died of embarrassment alone in my bedroom.
i walked downstairs said nothing just showed corey.
he laughed.
while telling my parents about where i found my treasured boots sassy, who was in ear shot looked at me and said, "i do'ed that."
i guess i can call the police department and tell them the case has been solved.....
