Book thief! Do you know, last week someone returned a book to the Toronto library after 75 years! Once, when we came back from vacation, my SIL had taken a book of mine. Every single thing she used or borrowed she has damaged. Husband’s t shirt disappeared, she scratched up my hubby’s kayak, broke down our front door and has not closed right ever since, tape recorder backing is gone etc… she never has offered to replace or fix anything. So I asked for my book back and was quite determined to have it back right away. She actually said she knows I can trust her with it. She then even said she felt sorry for me because I don’t lend out my books. Grrrr…
Birgit, 75 years. Wow. I'd hate to see the fine on that one. hehe. Ouch. Hide your books and everything else from your SIL. Jacqui, So sorry, I can't figure out DDG:( Denise, Naw. xo
EC, Yes:) Thanks, Hils;) Andrew, Hehe:) CJ, Uh-huh;) Thanks, Duta! I love learning new words. You could never tell, right? Haha. Elizabeth, For me too:) Isn't it a fun one, though? Adam, A new word for me too. I like it;)
