Star's list is excellent, but I would use aluminum bottles filled with marbles or those glass beads used for flower arranging (by the fake flowers in Walmart for a buck or two). If someone tries the knob the glass bottle may break. That will make it tough on a barefoot burglar but there are not many of those. If you get a cheap aluminum water bottle at walmart (or buy a bottle of Think Wine from Portugal [$9] that comes in an aluminum bottle and will relax you before you fill it with marbles!) and put marbles in it you will be woken up by the noise and you won't have to clean up the bits of glass that will be all over. Plus you get to try a new wine recommended in the Food Network magazine!
Star is very right about it taking time to work through all the emotions. And about getting something for your nerves to keep on hand.
Many hugs.
