My new journey

I am running a half marathon while raising funds to raise awareness for Leukemia and Lymphoma Soceity. This has been good for me both in the fact that I have commited myself to regular exercise and also made a commitment to raise funds for a cause I believe in. Visit my LLS page it you wish to donate. Thanks!

another good deed....

today my good deed was covering a shift for a co-worker. this counts, right? if not i also gave a customer 22 cents to cover her tab. this has been excited and fun. i have accomplished my goal every day so far! terrific!

today is just another day....

so i began a new resolution this year - to do a good deed everyday. intentional or random acts of kindness fall into my good deed category. So far i am 21 days into the month and this habit has stuck. I am excited by new goal, even more excited that i have been able to stick with it! so far they have included helping some one with her essay, giving friends a ride, donating to my favorite cause, getting flowers for some one who fell ill, dropped off coffee to a customer who is not able to leave his house, donating shoes to some one who will wear them, bought a stranger a cup of coffee, smiled at some one randomly, spent an entire day complimenting everyone i encountered (that was really fun) and made some one laugh who needed cheering. It has definitely brought me more joy than i imagined :)
