Progress report on 100 Acts of Spirit
It is only Tuesday of my big week for Random Acts of Christmas Spirit and I am already having the time of my life! I made these little cards and taped candy on the back of them. Now everywhere I go all over town to run errands I am leaving them in places for people to find! My 15 year old son went with me the first day and said he wished he could have parents that were normal. I say it is not good to be normal! We need more people willing to stick their necks out and make this world a better place. I don't want to live in a world where everyone is normal. I can watch CNN if I want that- too depressing! The really cool part of this is, by the time we got to the last errand-groceries my son was picking people to give them to! It really is contagious!
I have been doing other things too- leaving the bird seed in parking lots, catfood for ferrel cats, paid on a lay away, given to charities around town, and taken goodies to folks! I have been having a blast! You think I am doing good for others, and I am but the real gift is to me because it feels so great!
I'm still collecting and acting on ideas so keep them coming. I have all week. This afternoon I am taking some catnip to the adoption kitties! Hope you are enjoying your holiday season as much as I am!

Such a wonderful thing to do, Pat! My kids never had a normal mother, and thought they wanted one, but they both have kids now and are not normal either, and they love being outside the norm! Normal is BORING!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
I agree! I'm glad to know that they turned out knowing what is better. My son gave a $20.00 tip to our waitress today and made me really proud. It's rubbing off. It just takes time! Thanks for your comment!
