What goes around...

Remember how I posted recently, under a subject "No good deed goes unpunished?" I talked about running out of a coffee shop to tell a woman her trunk was up and was rewarded with a dirty look? Well, what goes around comes around. I participated in the Author's Fair yesterday, at WEMTA, and accidentally left my camera and my blood sugar monitor at the Convention Center. Well, I figured someone might turn in the monitor (value $18) and keep my nice, relatively new Canon digital camera.
Nope. Some kind, honest soul turned BOTH in to Lost and Found. The Convention Center will mail them back to me (it's an hour and a half drive, or I'd go get them.)
So, every good deed goes rewarded!

Oh my goodness, Debbie!
What a fortunate ending to your story of the lost camera and monitor. But then again, all the teachers/librarians/media specialists we met that day were more than nice, so I'm not surprised that they were honest and concerned as well.

Glad you are getting your camera and monitor back. I am one of those person's that think most people would do the right thing and turn them in. But I know there are some people who aren't.

My son lost an MP3 player in school once and we really though it would be stolen but we where surprised that it was turned into the office. So I always have hope :)

Anything that will detach from my person gets left behind -- regularly. I've left my purse, camera, jacket, etc in various locations my whole life. They've always either been there when I returned or they were taken to lost-and-found. THE ONLY EXCEPTION was when I was in college and I left a sweatshirt jacket behind in a class...I realized I had forgetten it when I got ready to leave the building on a cold day. I turn around and look for it -- gone. Then I spot this HUGE...really HUGE guy stuffed in my jacket. I couldn't believe it...the difference in our sizes was vast...stuffing himself in that jacket must have hurt.

I figured if he needed a jacket that badly, I was glad he found it.
