Walked out without -- which I realized about 20 minutes later. I went back to get it & it was gone  I was sure someone STOLE IT!!
Usually, if something is lost an email gets sent out saying Found: such & such -- no emails & it was after 5:30 & I was rushing to get to the post office before they closed at 6pm.
As soon as I got home, I sent an email out to my department, the department that shares our floor & to HR -- just sure someone stole my gifts
But also knowing that most likely, I wouldn't get a response until morning. But praise God - about 20 minutes after I sent the email someone in HR responded & said it had been turned in  -- it's waiting for me to pick up in HR tomorrow  |
Isn't that the GREATEST feeling? I accidentally left my purse (huge bag) in a grocery cart in the parking lot (after concientiouslessly putting the cart in the cart "lane") and didn't even realize it until HOURS later when I went to get my Palm Pilot for something.....and it was in not the greatest area too.....I just thought about all the stuff I had in there and had a terrible sinking feeling.....when I realized I must have left it there, I raced out (dh said 'oh, well, you just lost it all") to the store and went to the customer service desk and sure enough....someone had actually seen me leave it there when they were pulling in, but couldnt' catch me and took it inside to the desk. Those are the days when you know that God exists and has a guardian angel watching over you! It really renews your faith in humanity! I'm so glad your story had a happy ending too!
