Popcorn and a Movie
We taped popcorn and money to a Redbox machine today. The girls wanted to wait and spy on who would be the lucky recipient. They were so excited to make someone's day!

Everyone Deserves to be Treated Right
I am a long time friend of Eddie's and had always put him in thoughts and prayers ...
Just like Eddie, having an open mind and good heart goes along way. Not only when I see the less fortunate, I take the necessary steps to provide. Whether it's bringing back a bag full of drinks, to meals, or a blanket to somebody in the streets. Everybody deserves to be treated right and not just

An Act of Kindness, Just Because
I will not name the person that helped me this morning. This morning was like all the other mornings I have had these past six months. Taking care of someone with depression gives you an array of emotions. Struggling financially plus dealing with the love of your life's depression has, at times for me, become to much to bare. A wonderful lady called me today to come by and look at a quilt she
A Key Turn of Kindness
Yesterday I watched an elderly woman unsuccessfully attempt to unlock her front door. I got out of my car and helped her unlock the door. She was so happy.

Paid a Bill
Hi, today I paid the dental bill for an older lady who was clearly stressed over making the payment. The worried look on her face told me everything I needed to know. I checked with the receptionist while she was in with her dentist to find out how much it would be, decided I could afford to help her, paid the bill and left. I got a call back from the receptionist a little while later to let me know the lady was very surprised and asked her to call and thank me. :-)

The Christmas Save
Carline worked hard at her job at a manufacturing facility in a small town in the South. By end of shift every day, her fingers were sore and her body tired. Her husband was a lazy, no good; well, you get the point. He had quit his job two months before Christmas because he didn't like the way his boss talked to him. Carline wasn't surprised he quit. This had become his standard reaction to any
type of gesture that he didn't like. The concept of people having a bad day once in a while or maybe, just maybe, he wasn't perfect, never entered his mind.

Random Coupon Giving
I just received a $10 coupon from Best Buy as a promo for their re-opening. I am going to take it down and give it to someone in the store :)

Picture This
A guy I went to high school with saw some of my drawings on Facebook. He started a new company and asked if he could pay me to do a cartoon of him at his lake house with Snoopy in the picture. I drew his picture on my day off and mailed it to him in North Carolina for free. His company is called Happy Living and puts out only positive messages. ~Eileen |
Hugs for All
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time!
While walking around the grocery store yesterday I made sure to give everyone I encountered a big smile with a "Good Morning!"

Groceries for a Colleague
Eddie (who I have not had the pleasure of meeting) was heavy on my mind today as I walked through the grocery store. I have a colleague who has struggled with health issues, and has had to miss a lot of time from work, unpaid, to have surgery. He eats very cheaply on what he can afford, which isn't

Lunch for Homeless Vet
I meet my friends for lunch once or twice a week. There is a homeless Vietnam veteran who hangs out near the restaurant where I go. Every time I see him I hand him a couple of bucks and I buy him lunch. He is a good man and deserves more than just a couple of bucks and a lunch once in a while, he deserve the respect of any US Citizen he comes in contact with.
