I just looked up the Q Kindness Cafe, and it is directly under my brother's apartment in St. Paul!! He lives in the same building in the apartments above! Looks like I'll be checking it out soon :-)

Supplies for Womens Shelter

Posted on February 11, 2010 at 9:02pm 3 Comments

Today I received my last batch of shampoos, lotions, soaps, etc from a friend who put out a collection box in her office. I am bringing them to a women and childrens shelter. I cannot believe I have filled 4 medium size boxes. A women who I don't even know offered to drop everything off to me! I also made a donation of $50 to this same friend because she is doing the 3 day walk for Breast Cancer. It felt like alot of money to give right now but I felt that I needed to. The more I give, the more… Continue

Day 10 - A Tip and My son is learning to give

Posted on November 3, 2009 at 9:00pm 3 Comments

Today I doubled my tip to my hair colorist. I have been seeing her for 27 years. Oh my!



Also, my son told me that he was studying pollution in science today and his teacher told them to pick up 3 pieces of litter tonight - for extra credit. He walks home from school and he decided to pick up all the litter he could carry on his 1 mile walk. He had about 14 cans, bottles and cups. He called me at work when he got home. He told me what the teacher said and that he could not stop at 3… Continue
