The war with Daltons

Today is a new day...

I haven't written any blog at the last days because I tried to recover from a terrible incident that happened to me... a robbery and a great lost... the lost of my "Dolly".

I have been the victim of a robbery last Wednesday night. An intruder came to my home... a thief who took my purse from my living room without touching anything else from my home.

I was there... at my bedroom and I was asleep. No one knows if I sprayed with a drug or not in order to stay asleep or not. No one knows if this happen at the time that my daughter was at home too or not. No one knows how this intruder got in my home. The door was locked and it was still locked at the morning.

I did not notice anything strange when I woke up at the morning. Everything was normal. The noise of my cell woke me up as every day. I prepared my morning as every day. I make everything as usual and then... I started searching for my purse.

After 5 minutes searching I woke up my daughter telling her that she must help me. I couldn't find this damn purse and it was time to leave for my office. My daughter who leaves home after me every day for her office woke up and told me "My mom, if I'll find your purse inside the refrigeration I will start thinking about this illness of the old people..."

Well... trying to do so many things at the same time... the women's multitasking mind... my mind forgets some time something that I did when I thought something else the same time.

Unfortunately the purse was absent and after a few minutes our phone started ringing. We don't usually take calls at this phone as we live mostly out of our home working many hours and all friends and relatives find us at our cells. That was strange... I answered the phone and I heard a polite voice to inform me that I was a victim of robbery. Someone have found my purse at the street and brought it to the police department of my area. I started feeling this tremble... my daughter told me to stay calm. How can you stay calm when you know that someone entered at your home... at your private space?

I knew immediately that I lost my monthly salary. It was paid day the day before but my daughter told me "It is ok... we are going to survive". The worst came when we discovered that my car was not at the parking place. My keys were inside my purse...

I spent a day between the police station and the insurance company. People came at my home searching for finger tips my life turn upside down. Police could not understand this incident and search a lot about it. My car was not a very expensive car. Maybe impressive sport but its value is not similar to a Mercedes or BMW. It is just a Hyundai Tiburon.

For me of course the value of Dolly could not count on money. It is priceless!

As I have written in one of my previous blog, at the "Driving Under the Full Moon", Dolly for Greeks is the Lucky Luck horse, the famous Jolly. For me she represents my horse for the traveling to my Wild West... the freedom of my soul.

I forgot something. I forgot the Daltons ... My Wild West was not so perfect and the evil spirits were there hiding themselves at the shadows until find the right time and the opportunity to grap my horse... to eliminate my freedom.

Well... I lost a round but the war has not ended. Maybe an era is over... It was an important part of my life... the transformation period.

Last night checking my friends blogs I discovered Alexandros blog about "Dolly" . It was a big surprise for me because I tried to not pass all these feelings and emotions that have governed me after the big lost to you. I have placed only a phrase at my blast.
" I lost my partner... I lost my Dolly " .
A few of you asked me what happened and I replied by private emails.

Last night when I saw the photo of Dolly at Alexandros blog I cried... and I cried a lot. That was my goodbye to her. I don't believe that I will see her again. I realized that it is time for one more start and I am ready for it.

Today I hung a poster with a flying fire dragon at my bedroom's door and I have started painting my face with the colors of the war.
I have to prepare myself for the second round of the war with my Daltons.
