29-Day Giving Challenge

Yesterday I called a friend and invited her to lunch. It was a fun spur of the moment get together! Then later, while I was at the drive thru window at the bank, I decided to give the clerk a candy cane. After she sent my receipt back, I put a candy cane into the container and sent it back. I thought she had walked away but she heard the tube and turned right back around and saw her gift! She was so excited, she said it made her day! I love to watch people's reactions when I do this! It always brightens my day as much as theirs! At two of the stores, I had extra coupons that I wasn't going to use, so I gave them to other shoppers! I just hate to waste a good coupon!!
Today I don't know if I will be going out as I have a bunch of things to do around the house and I have some gifts to wrap and get ready for shipping. If I can get them done, I will go to the post office and then drop off a candy cane or two. I sent a few surrpise emails this morning and I want to try to make a few little cards and gifts so I have them done.
As always, for anyone who happens to read this, I'm sending lots of wishes for a wonderful day! Happy giving today and happy December 1!

Lynn! That is such a fun idea! A little peppermint candy cane goes a long way in putting a smile on someone's face!
