My big oops

I take my phone to church with me. Various reasons why.
I either silence it, or put it on "do not disturb", which is what I did today. For DND you need to put your phone face down, so I took it out of my purse and put it face down on the pew.
After church I picked up everything, and left. Except I left my phone.
I did not really miss it. I do not use it much, but I wanted to see if my daughter had messaged me. That is when I realized I could not find my phone.
I called myself with Bob's phone. No ringing in the house or in the car, and then I remembered. I put it face down on the pew beside me.
I could not do without it, because I am expecting some important calls, so I drove the half hour back to church. I have a key, and I went in and got it, turned around and came back home. I wish everything I keep losing was that easy to find.
Sure did hate to waste that much gas.

It's so easy to do this but, as you say, what a waste of petrol.
