The Most Used Item

Jun. 30, 2012

Of all the items on my desk there is one that gets used the most. It is my Spanish-English Dictionary. As you can see form the pictures it has been used quite a bit. I got this years ago when I first met my husband. His English was limited and my Spanish was nonexistent. I could count to ten in Spanish and that was it.The rip came when I was trying to find the right words during our very first argument. The dictionary was in my purse and I was struggling to pull it out.This handy little book has served me well and I still use it regularly.  Everyone tells me I should get a new one or one of those electronic ones but this one has so much sentiment behind it that I just can’t bring myself to get rid of it. What is the one item you use often?
