I think more than moderate pleasure is in order. Well done.
My house and car were vandalised (broken windows, etc) as part of a mini-campaign of nastiness against me a few months ago. I still look over my shoulder as I get out of my car on my driveway in my street every single time I park at my house... waiting for something bad to happen.
It's no longer my home. Just my house.
So for you to have moved on a stage in your own 'dealing with it' is very, very good. Virtual back-patting is called for...
I've been trying not to let the mugging make me feel unsafe in my own street. It did actually happen fifty yards from my front door, but only because they saw me on a main road ten minutes' walk further away and chased me - so I've been having to remind myself every so often that there aren't muggers lurking around my house on a regular basis...
I know what you mean, though: it seriously made me wonder about moving house...
