Yesterday morning ws a reminder that there is honesty left in this world.
I had taken my wife in for some minor surgery and she gave me her wedding band for safe-keeping because I was less likely to misplace it than she was. Of course, I misplaced it, and only noticed a couple of hours later. I frantically looked everywhere I'd been at the clinic while I'd been waiting for the procedure to be over, without success. When I went back to the front desk and asked if a ring might have been found, yes, it had. Outside the building.
Interestingly, my wife wasn't upset. Sure, had the ring been lost, I'd have gotten her another one, but I pointed out that it wouldn't have been the one I had given her more than 23 years ago.
She has been known to call me a sentimental fool.
I think she means that in a good way.
