I am a perpetual worrier. This is one of my worst traits. I worry about everything—sadly, this is not an exaggeration. My husband jokes that if I don’t have anything in my life at the present moment to worry about, I will worry about inventing something to worry about. It is kind of a problem, is my point. I worry about my home being broken into, or about my home catching on fire and all of my irreplaceable heirlooms and photos being destroyed, or about a pipe bursting and flooding my house while I’m away. I really wish that I was more “footloose and fancy free,” but alas, this is not going to happen. I’ve come to accept this aspect of my personality over time, but I can do everything possible to try to limit it. Therefore, having an alarm monitoring service is really a non-negotiable for me. Not having home security systems monitoring my home while I’m away would just give me another thing to worry about. And trust me; I do not need anything else to worry about. I’m already completely out of control.
