miracle

I don't know how often you have miracles but I can say I had a few in my life but what happened yesterday was just unbelievable.

So since the preparation for the Leipzig book fair are just crazy at the moment at work (the book fair starts tomorrow) and so I was in a hurry as always in the morning. I heard some noise when i went on my bike to work but didn't looked around because I thought I just rode over a little stick or something. When I arrived at work I noticed my mistake: My cell phone was gone. It obviously fell out of my pocket while riding to work. The day at work was so busy that i almost forgot about it but when i got home I checked my whole room still hoping that i didn't loose it but just misplaced it.

Well, nothing!

I called my mom with the regular apartment phone and told her under tears that my phone is gone. And while talking to her I realized what I really lost, all those phone numbers and a lot of data for university which i saved there during last weeks trip to Finland. Gosh I am such a moron for not having these numbers written down somewhere and for not saving this date when I got back from the trip! It took me even 10min just to find somewhere my parents phone number. So after calling my mom I was about to leave to meet some friends but wanted to check my emails before leaving.

And there she was on ICQ. My guardian angel for that day. :) A friend who I wanted to mail or call for months since we haven't really spoken in a year or more. That friend had for whatever reason tried to call me. And somebody other than me answered my cell. So she told me that somebody found my phone and that I should contact that person and will get back my phone.

Unbelievable?! Isn't it?

For me it was the biggest miracle of my life! Because why was that friend trying to call me that day and not 2 days later or a week earlier?? Totally insane!

Well my mom who didn't know about my friend telling me that somebody found my phone, tried to call my number this morning to test if it was still working and then talked to that nice man who found my phone. So i called him tonight and got my phone back within 5 minutes since he just lives down the street. So now i am complete again with my phone and finally appreciate it. And i am saving all numbers now separately. Just in case.

So that was my miracle for this week. :)
Let's see what the rest of the year brings.



PS Thanks Janine for trying to call me yesterday. :)
