Restarting Round 2!! Days 1 and 2
I am feeling a little lost and I believe I needed to officially start this round again. Yesterday I set up a volunteer committment for my volunteer group -- we will be unpacking and sorting donations for ARC/Value Village store in 2 weeks. There will be 10 of us.
Also I put out a box a work to collect travel size shampoo for a homeless shelter in Minneapolis. My goal is 100.
Today I bought 10-15 travel shampoos at a "unique" thrift store for about $2.50. :) What a deal! I'll add them to the box tomorrow Today I was very grateful that I had hot water and shampoo to wash my hair!

yes, we do take those everyday things like shampoo for granted ... perhaps I should return to my gratitude journal (haven't used it in a while) and write done some things like shampoo, toothpaste, and such that I'm grateful for
glad to see you back on the site "officially", though I know you never really went anywhere.
Wasn't it a great "melty" day here in MN today?

Fabulous gifts Cathy! That was a deal! It's nice you are doing this, so many don't even have these everyday supplies we take for granted. Bravo to you :o)

Great giving Kathy, it really does make you grateful for the small things when you look at those who have nothing.
