There are really good people still in this world.
Husband and I were walking in Georgetown on Tuesday night and my wallet/car key thingy dropped out of my back pocket. I didn't feel it fall and apparently didn't notice for awhile. It had my credit cards, drivers license, $30 and a few other discount cards in it. We searched up and down Wisconsin, desperately looking for it and never found it. I called and canceled my credit cards immediately, luckily they hadn't been used.
That night, I filed a lost property report with the DC police, which was incredibly frustrating-- it took me multiple tries to find the right phone number. It is easy if you live in DC, just call 311, however I live in NoVa and it took me forever to find it. Then the woman and I couldn't understand each other's accents. (When I am tried/stressed my southern accent gets THICK.)
I just got a call from the Gold's Gym in Roslyn, someone just dropped the wallet off there. All my stuff is still in it--even the cash. I have no idea how my wallet traveled that far, but I love the person who did it!
I could weep with gratitude!
