    Gone

    It seems likely that my camera and a gps unit have been stolen from our car. I’m not quite sure when this happened but the last time I definitely saw or used the camera was when I cut Lego Lover’s hair about two weeks ago. I usually carry it in my backpack purse or stick it in the storage space between the front seats in the car or keep it on my desk. It hasn’t been seen in any of those places for a while now.  I noted it wasn’t where I expected it to be a week ago or more but thought I might have misplaced it. Yesterday I went to use the gps and it wasn’t there which shifted my suspicion towards theft. My guess is the car doors were accidentally left unlocked at some point and an opportunist came along. And since I am the one using the car the most, it quite likely was my mistake. I am currently debating whether to file an insurance claim or not. There’s a deductible and will likely be some penalty fee for it being stolen from a unlocked car…I seem to recall that being the case the first time we were burgled years ago. But the camera had enough value despite being a few years old to consider it.
