There are still nice people left in the world

Today, I went to Tigercuts to get a manicure and pedicure. As usual, I hung my phone from the waistband of my pants. Nothing unusual.

 

I went into Tigercuts and proceeded to get the pedicure first. A woman (obviously dressed to go somewhere) along with her young daughter came in for a nail fix. Since she was the only nail tech there and I was just finishing up with the pedicure, I told the woman I could wait while she gets her nail fixed.

 

The woman sat down to get her nail fixed. We made small talk. She was just finishing when I reached for my phone to call my hubby. NO PHONE!!!!!!!

PANIC OF MOMUMENTAL PROPORTIONS sets in. I knew I had the phone when I left for the appointment. I went out to look, thinking I could have dropped it coming out of the car. I couldn't find it. My nail tech told me, "Call your phone number, maybe the person who found it still has it." I wasn't very optimistic but I called anyway. The person at the other end said. "Is this your Blackberry?" I said it was and began thanking her for keeping it for me.

 

Long story short- she actually came back to the salon and dropped off the phone.

 

After much arguing, I made her take the gift certificate I purchased for her as a token of my appreciation. She accepted and we chatted for a few minutes and then she went on her way.

 

I blessed someone else by giving of my time and I was blessed in return by someone showing me their kindness.

 

My faith in humanity is restored. There is joy in Mudville.
