[QUOTE="dashcat, post: 580724, member: 9175"] Susie, The only things that she would truly "miss" are her cell phone and her car. I helped her buy her car, but she pays her own insurance, gas and most of the maintenance (Mr. Ostrich helps with this). She pays her own cell phone bills. Even if I wanted to, i couldn't take these away ..and I wouldn't if I could (for this offense at least). While I find her disregard for other people's property baffling and infuriating, it's not an offense that I would boot her out of the house over ... at least not right now. She isn't stealing and reselling things ... just being very weird and disrespectful of my belongings. I am continually amazed at how her mind works (and doesn't work at times) on this subject. In September, we attended an out of town wedding on Mr. Ostrich's side of the family. When I was packing, she came in to my room and asked if I had a white sweater. I said I was taking the white cardigan and planned to wear it the day after the wedding (we were exploring Chicago). She was welcome to a white shrug I had. i gave it to her to pack and told her she couldn't smoke while wearing it. We got there early on the day of the wedding and I went out to find my sisters-in-law to explore the area. She planned to stay in the room (crazy). After about an hour, I run into her on the street. She is already dressed for the wedding and is wearing ... you guessed it, my CARDIGAN. I immediately say "That is my sweater." She replies, "Oh. I found it in my suitcase. I thought you put it there so I could wear it." REALLY? Becasue I distinctly remember HANGING IT ON A HANGER before I left the hotel. I made her take it off. Seriously? Did she even think for a second I would think that I put it in her suitcase???? She also has a habit of always - ALWAYS - taking one or several articles of clothing from whatever guy she is seeing at the time. A cap, a sweater, a hoodie ...sometimes all of these things. When she lived with Mr. Ostrich, she would come over wearing his T-shirts, jackets (this drove him crazy, too) and once HIS SHOES! I find this all very bizarre... Dash [/QUOTE]
