You can get motion-detect cameras which take  SD cards.  Check the pictures, 
they'll be time/date stamped,  anything timed that wasn't you going in or 
out is worthy of a further look by some eyes. They're quite cheap and simple 
these days.  Mrs has several different ones, includingIR for pictures in the 
dark.

Subject: simple home monitoring?


Hi folks,
I am wondering if there might be a very simple Linux solution for this?
I live in an apartment building.  I am not concerned about entry when I am
in the space.  the locks  I use make that rather impossible.
However I am interested in a way to monitor if anyone comes into the
apartment when I am out and cannot use the second inner lock.
There are people on staff who have keys, of course they are not supposed to
come in when I am gone, but oh well lol.
Would be nice is a simple system that I can dedicate a machine for,
meaning a basic setup, with few resources required.
perhaps software that would email me an alert  or monitoring results.
ideas?
thanks.
Karen
