Just happy finding a brass or bronze, rather large Akan/ Baoule people gold weight pendant with silk cord from Ghana/ Ivory Coast, for a really good price yesterday. Made with ancient 'lost wax technique'. Keeping this one for myself! Show me what you found that you are keeping!

@halle_luya You see what? My old letter? My daughter loves Miami but I’ve never been there. Are you always up at 5 AM, it’s 2 AM here, are you a night owl like me? This item you posted is very unusual, I like unique art like that, I’m sure it has meaning to the artist that we do not know perhaps.

@halle_luya thanku so much for the shares, I can use the help. I didn’t want to lay a long pity party story on you but for the record since you asked, I’m working with police bc many things, items close to my heart and some listed in my store, r stolen by our residence maintenance Lady kleptomaniac thief. no cameras in the hallway, she lives here and has the keys to 66 apartments. I am brokenhearted; this isn’t the 1st time. A few years ago 70% of my stuff was stolen by my Ihss Wirker

@halle_luya That’s the whole problem is proof. it’s a bit more complicated but I didn’t want to lay out all the details. She lives here so they can’t control her and they don’t believe us, they think we’re senile. I was told to get a hidden camera To go through my phone but I’m not a techie and there’s thousands of them on Amazon, I don’t know which one to get, she just wiped out most of my watches I had listed jewelry etc.& Many beloved items& I am bedridden etc.

@halle_luya Good. We Greeks wear our hearts on our sleeves and on my Jewish side we’ve had to have a sense of humor…Have you had your DNA done?
Aug 07Reply

halle_luya
@hoarderhaven No, I am too paranoid for that lol! I don't really want to give my DNA even though it's most likely already out there.
Why?

halle_luya
@hoarderhaven Did you talk to the police about the matter? Did you have photographs of the items?
Aug 08Reply

halle_luya
Oh sorry, you mentioned the police
I have so many messages from people that I overlook things. it's cause I share a lot of items

@halle_luya it’s just a hobby of mine, I studied geography and cultural anthropology and I had a radio show for 12 years called “music of many lands, “by invitation. Both my daughter and I found a lot of surprises on our DNA. I wrote about it on my Facebook page a little bit. In my case there’s so many mysterious things that I want to know these things like my grandfather I knew nothing about

@halle_luya I don’t understand why people are paranoid, maybe they know something I don’t. But I don’t care about that, I’m too old. I just want to know the truth about who we are especially in my family so many mysteries. Wish they’d had it when my parents were alive. But now that I got it there’s things about it I don’t understand, don’t make sense. I am brokenhearted my daughter can’t have children I guess that means my DNA will die. She blew it…

@halle_luya I have some photographs but not everything. This happened to me before and this time there’s no detective which is what they need. Very hard to prove things. I need someone to tell me what kind of camera to get to go through my phone, there’s thousands on Amazon I’m not a techie. In the past they got two Felonies but I never got my stuff back

@halle_luya I do too, I can’t keep up with them anymore because my store started to explode, it’s so hard because I am not mobile anymore I am bedridden in excruciating pain, use wheelchair/walker but I used to be very active. Did you see my homepage more pity party there!

Just tonight I found another stolen item I probably wouldn’t have known about but somebody wanted me to measure it, and it was gone! The silver sequin top

@hoarderhaven contact Health & Human Services in your city. The people stealing from your are considered to be committing Elder Abuse: when a younger able bodied person defrauds a senior person they have “access to” of money or worthwhile possessions. It is a crime and the fact that your claims aren’t being taken seriously is a legal issue. You deserve a county appointed lawyer that cares about your Human Rights to live in a safe environment and not be taken of advantage of financially.

@yogijennypenny I just saw your note. The last time Caregiver stole half my stuff the police said they couldn't file a claim because I could not identify it. There was 12 boxes and before I could even go through them from the storage unit she stole them so I didn't have pictures or memory of them. i've been bedridden three years and learned people take advantage of you. Even family members!🙏🏻🥲💜☮️♿️ thank you so much, Trina
