29-Day Giving Challenge

Last night at around 1:00am I was awak, lying in bed thinking (why, I don't know) but I had a great idea for a gift for today....yay....but when I woke up for "real" in the morning I couldn't remember what my idea was. I thought and thought and couldn't get it. But wait....it resurfaced after my walk on the treadmill....yay! My plan was to give a book to a co-worker of mine who has been talking about books his daughter likes to read. She likes Nicholas Sparks books so I was planning on giving him one I had already read to pass along to her....so I went to look for it....and guess what, it wasn't there...I must have given it away already....Darn, plan foiled!

So, what to do today instead? I went to work and the opportunity presented itself smack in front of me -- no toilet paper in the stall! I changed out all the empties and restocked the spare rolls. My giving had begun....a day of paper activities. I took a new paper towel roll to the break room, I refilled the copy machine (both trays), I delivered print outs on the printer to those who had printed them and I emptied the shred box into the shred bins. Oh, I filled the TP at home too!

I will plant some trees in the spring!!

I'm glad there are other Toilet Paper Fairies in the world because I do this non-stop at my house. I swear my family doesn't know how to do this. Good job Paper Fairy!!
