Relax, the prosecutor called me this afternoon to say that she has everything set to have the guy charged with criminal theft that thought he needed our money more then we needed another garage. All she has to do is get the Judge to sign the paper. Then next week they will pick him up.

It’s kind of bitter sweat, I have been telling the guy this day would come since we found out he wasn’t going to do what he said would do. Four months of worry for us not knowing what was going to happen, now we know.

I know most everyone knows you have to watch pretty much everything you do that has to do with having someone do work for you. The ironic thing is for 14 years we have only paid to have things that we absolutely couldn’t do our self. We couldn’t pump the septic tank, or cut the huge pine trees getting to close to the house. We decide to pay for a building and then lost everything that we did ourselves to save money.

My faith has been restored if you do the right things the justice system will work. It would have been so much easier for him just to pay what he had taken from us. For sure, while he is in jail we will not get our money but he will have sometime to think about what he did. If you think someone is ripping you off document everything that is going on, time, date, every excuse they give. If I had not been keeping a daily journal since 2001 that my daughter gave me to put a little of what I was doing each day so the grandkids could someday look back and see what papa Dick was doing. I would not have had so much information to give to the prosecutor. My grammar hasn’t improved nor my spelling but I did get the information I needed. Some things happen for a reason, even when this guy gets out of jail he will still owe us what he has taken from us plus he will have a monkey on his back so to speak in the form of a class D felony. So yeah I’m going to relax this weekend.
