Default I almost lost it

My thimble!!! DH had surgery on his toe today and I took along a quilt I am working on (we were there 7 hrs) and this evening when I got ready to pick up my quilt again to work on, I couldn't find my thimble. It wouldn't be a big deal except it is a Thimblelady thimble, and I didn't want to have to spend $50 to replace it. But, I found it...in the trash can! I had emptied my quilting bag and turned it upside down over the thrash can to get out the little bits and didn't realize my thimble was still in there. I had gone out to search the car and DH had just started going through the trash can when I came back in and just as I walked up I spotted it in the can. I was so happy and relieved.

Perhaps some of you can relate to my distress.
