Yesterday, a new neighbor that I have waved to, but never talked to, brought over a package that was addressed to me but delivered to her house by mistake. I invited her in, and we sat in the den and talked a while. Then I asked her to come into the living room so I could show her a beautiful framed picture of my granddaughter. We had to walk through my kitchen to get to the living room. I can't remember my exact words, but they went something like this: "My kitchen is very small.

I hope you can make it." As soon as the words were out of my mouth, I could have kicked myself, because this woman is a very heavyset person; she must weigh around 300 pounds. She didn't say anything, but I'm afraid I hurt her feelings. This has upset me so much. I couldn't sleep a wink last night. EDITORSCRITICS Normal hours are 7 a.m.

Their gift was then the cash they received as a refund. As a gift-giver, "Name With-held's" duty was done when she gave the first gift.

MARLENE IN MINNEAPOLIS DEAR MARLENE: The store issued the credit to the purchaser, rather than the bridal couple, which left the bridal couple gift-less.
