    Your not gonna believe this.

    Tonight being bulk pickup night, we figured lets go out and see what we get.
    Had a water heater in back of the truck from earlier and too late to drop off. So I reefed it out of the truck, put it in the backyard.
    We hook up our trailer and away we went.
    Got a pickup truck full of scrap and our enclosed trailer is full of furniture to refurnish and sell.
    Right on.....
    I get home back the trailer into my driveway, get into the house and something make me think about the waterheater. I go for a beer and a looksy. GONE...
    from my backyard. Really, come on .. I probably knew the scrapper too.
    Man, nothing like kicking us when we're down..
    Yesterday was the first day we left our employee behind to look after the shop.
    Well he likes to sand furniture with headphones on. So there he is sanding away out front of the store/shop sanding away be boping to the music. He stops sanding goes in the shop to get a smoke and there's a woman inside. She's like looking at my stuff for sale. Doesn't buy anything and leaves.
    I was gone for 1 hour on delivery, and I get back to the store. (with said waterheater) My employee goes on to tell me about the 3 different people interested in this or that, Well, he comes are to the story about the woman in the shop by herself. I said were was she? And low and behold, my camcorder is gone.
    Man I just wish we could have the pictures back, alot of before and after shot of the work we do.
    What a bummer.....
    To top it off.... My clutch fan bearings are squeeling like crazy and fan is loose. New part won't be in for two days, $90 later.

    A day in the life..........
