are you a bad borrower?

i offered to let a good friend borrow a cradle when she found out she was pregnant. i blurted it out without thinking.  she just isn't the best borrower. you know some friends are awesome and other friends just don't remember to return stuff or don't return it unless bugged...

anyhoo...she has a big, destructive dog, too. so i asked her if we should be worried about him damaging the cradle.  she said no, that the dog wouldn't be in her room (not true--she means well, but the dog will be in there) and that of course she would replace it if damaged. or she offered to just get one (via email). how do i say that i think it's a good idea for her to get one? she is a good friend

    Ditto Rosie.

    Or you could buy her one of her own.  Not sure what they cost or how much you want to spend on her gift, though.

    grumble grumble grumble.....why did i open my mouth?! we already have a big gift for her(bought with other people). i'm just one of those super practical people and so many people let me borrow stuff, i want to return the favor to my friends! but i think i'm a good borrower! no reminding, return it in great condition and i'm appreciative. she just hasn't returned other stuff, so i know how this is going to end if we let her borrow it. my bad, my bad....no one to blame but my big mouthed self.
