I had a quilting friend that went to Paducah with me two years ago. She was a "gimme" friend. Always asking, always saying that she'd pay back and when it came time to do so would force a some piece of junk on me as pay back. Well, before we went to Paducah I told her, "Make sure you have your own money, I'm not buying lunch or anything else, I only have enough money for me." To make a long story short due to "dying for a drink" I handed her $4. She bought the biggest drink she could. On the way home I found out she had a bunch of money in her wallet. That was it, if she didn't value our friendship more than $4 then neither did I. I cut off all contact with her and suddenly my rulers, rotary cutter, books, fabric, etc. quit coming up missing.
