I started the day with a surprise. Taped to my computer at work was an envelope and inside was a note and a very sentimental item I thought I had lost. Here's the story...
Since my pregnant hands sometimes swell, I have started wearing my engagement ring only because it is looser than my wedding band. On Thursday, I slipped my ring off and into my pocket for safe keeping in order to help prepare sandwiches for a charity fundraiser at work. I didn't think about it at the time, but it is also the same pocket that I placed my work keys. Later that evening I remembered I put the ring in my pocket, but guess what was not in there...That ring could have fallen out anywhere where I may have taken my keys out.
Where was it found? The custodian at work found it under my chair in my office. There are honest, caring people still out there in this world. I made sure to say thank you although I wasn't quite sure how to express how thankful I was that the ring was returned to me.
