List It Before You Lend It 04/07/2011
When we were little kids we learned that “sharing is caring”! And it really does feel great to help a friend out with a loan of a wonderful book, special party dress or a handy tool. What’s not so great is going to the shelf for that wonderful book, not being able to find it, and then remembering “Oh right. I lent that to….who was it again?”
Take one more load off of your memory with a “Borrowed” list. Start a list on paper, your PC, or in your cell phone of anything you have lent out – to whom and on what date. When the item is returned, simply cross it off. And if someone needs a little nudge about returning that DVD, you’ll know exactly whom to call.
So, share as freely as you like, just not before you put it on the “Borrowed” list!
