Stop in for a cup of coffee

My wife did the weekly grocery run this morning. She likes to get in just after the reserved time for Seniors and gets there at 7 am. Well today she finished up the shopping at 7:45 and when she got to the car, she realized that she had dropped her credit card between paying and getting g into the car.

She was freaked and re-traced her steps and asked inside if any one had seen it. Nope.

She called me in a panic and I calmed her down and said to just call Amex and report it missing. They will cancel that one and send a new one.

She thought I was going to be pissed off about it. No, stuff happens and wearing a mask and gloves just makes it harder to manipulated the card. No worries, it’s why we have card protection.

She was in a funk after getting home so I told her to call the store and see if it had been turned it in.

Yep, they found it. It had fallen under the edge of the check-out counter and they discovered it a little while after she left.

It had been cancelled already so she told them to just destroy it and then settled down realizing I wasn’t going to get angry over it.

I think she was mad at herself for it and thought maybe I would be mad to.

Nope, stuff happens...and we deal with it.

Life is hard enough right now trying to maintain vigilance and protocols to stay safe. An accidentally lost credit card doesn’t even make the list of things to be concerned about.
