Do you feel safe in your home?

[khardy57]

How safe do you feel at home? I feel very safe at home.

Have you ever been robbed or attacked? Yes, The Thursday before Thanksgiving in '93 my husband and I were robbed to the tune of $14,000 in guns, jewelry, and electronics. The jackasses even went into my attic, got a huge red Christmas bow and tied it to the front door knob. The door had been kicked in.

What are your homes vulnerable areas? I don't know that it really has any. All doors and windows are locked, even when I'm home, the backyard is fenced in with solar lights all around, and the only thing I can think of is the french doors.


What are it's strengths? I don't live in as remote an area now since Mark died, and I'm armed to the teeth and know how to use every gun in the house. I also have a permit to "carry" and do at all times. I have my dogs as an alarm system and no longer have a full wall of windows like at the other house.

I will say this. From my experience make sure you have ALL serial numbers to every item in your house that has them. Keep a copy at home and one in a safe location away from home. If possible, TAKE PICTURES of jewelry, etc. If they want in - they are coming in and there's basically nothing you can do about it except hope they don't do much damage and that you're not at home when it happens.



Maybe it we put our heads together we can ALL be safer!
