And then I found them.
I also found Mary's black glove.
The one that had gone missing when I noticed she'd left her coat, scarf -and one black glove- behind after Christmas.
Mary hasn't inquired about her coat, scarf and gloves.
And I didn't want to say anything because that one, solitary glove made me sad.
Where was the other one?
I didn't want to say anything until the glove appeared.
But now it's time to tell all.
Lisette owns Mary's coat and scarf these days. She wears them to work, drapes them on a chair after work, and wears them again.
The one glove? It has been resting on top of the living room bookshelf, pining for it's mate.
Well, now they are together again.
And now the question needs to be asked:
Do I send the pair of gloves?
Do I send the coat and scarf as well?
Or...do I keep all of them until Mary asks:
WHERE IS MY STUFF?!?!?!

haha!
I've only worn it a couple of times!!!
OK I have many points.
1-I love this post. Is it just me? Or is it just because it's about me?
2-I have not NOT asked about it because I have plenty to wear when it is cold outside. That is in fact my only coat. My arms are cold these days as all I have is my puffer vest. But I did just order a jcrew puffer coat I'm pretty darn excited about. Come to think of it, I texted a couple of you to ask if red wasn't too crazy a color to order. Lisette answered immediately, "Go for it! It's the best color in the world, Oh my GOSH get it!" Now it's starting to make sense.
3-Still on Lisette here. Another thing that makes sense. I texted her the other day that I accidentally packed a cardigan of hers and I'd send it back. Her reply? Oh feel free to keep it as long as you like. Guilty much?
4- I DO want my stuff back, but I don't want anyone to have to mail a big coat. Because I wouldn't want to. As I'm writing, however, a proposition comes to mind. Back to Lisette. Lisette, if you squish my coat into a flat rate box and send it to me, I will squish your sweater AND the plushest hugest white bathrobe you have ever seen into a flat rate box and send it to you. Now I admit this has already been on my to do list, as I recall Aloise stole your bathrobe (back), and I have no use, in this sauna I have for an apartment, for something that instantly raises one's temperature about 10 degrees (are you dying to get it?) But this seems to all be working out quite nicely.
5-Mom, this picture really makes it. Audrey Hepburn? Well I never.
