What did you effectively lose? Some (8?) books you've already read?

To me, the low-life behavior of the other woman (and her hostess friend, it seems) would bother me much more than actually losing those books.

I'm not really materialistic. Apart from my piano, which is too expensive to just replace (but which isn't likely to be stolen as you'd need a small bus to move it), I don't really care about anything I own. It can be replaced, either by myself or my insurance, and I don't own that much.

Getting robbed or scammed damages my trust in others, which is much more severe than actually losing the stuff. I suspect it's the same for you, or even more so.
I sent her 8 books. 6 gently used I got from the thrift store and two new ones I paid full price on. I only read one out of the eight which I have in eBook. When you have no money things become very important.

I'm no good in the kitchen. A huge liability. I can design stuff on the PC or make a website. I'm not good with my hands because of Dyspraxia. I'm left handed but on the computer I'm right handed.
