Pay It Forward



image from google
Have you seen the movie?
Do you know what the concept is?
In the movie the idea is that is 1 person  does a random act of kindness for 3 people and each of those 3 do the same and each of those 3 do the same......the end result is that through these gestures 1 person can change the world.
Just by doing something kind for someone else.
It doesn't have to be big or grand, it can be holding a door open or helping put groceries in a car or buying a cup of coffee for a stranger.
Or if you are able it can be paying a bill for some one you know is struggling or leaving a bag of groceries for a family in need or cooking a  meal for a friend.
You get the idea.
Cricket over at Gypsea Nurse posted about Paying it Forward on her blog a week or so ago and it reminded me how much this movie affected me at the time.
I want that feeling back.
I wasn't one of the first 5 to post on her blog, however I really wanted to do this.
So following Ms.Cricket's lead the first 5 people who post a comment will get a handmade card from me to send/give to some one. You may request the type of card you would like
Birthday,Get Well,Thinking of You,etc...
Please leave a way for me to contact you for your address.
Then Pay It Forward however you wish....

XOXO,
Jenny

    I haven't seen the move. In fact had forgotten about it. I have added it to my netflix so I will for sure get to see it now! Thanks for the reminder about the movie and for reminding all of us we need to be helpful to others in every small way.

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners. Unlike the plastic dryer balls, they are PVC free and won't fall apart or melt on you. Woolzies save time and energy by cutting down on drying time by an average of 25% per load.

Merry Christmas Y'all. Yes I say Merry Christmas! I keep Christ in  Christmas because it matters to me. I was at a craft show recently and at one of the booth's I wished the vendor a Merry Christmas, he said Thank You and then said "I don't say anything anymore, you never know what people believe and I don't want to offend anyone" OK I get that, he is a businessman....however;  I replied...."I say Merry Christmas because it is what I believe" he said huh... I have never thought of it that way before... I work for the "worlds largest retailer" and I say Merry Christmas all season long, In all of the 23 years I have worked in retail, no one has ever said "don't say that to me" actually most people are kind of surprised to hear it if I judge by the look on their faces and most reply Merry Christmas to you too. So try it on for size, the next time you are out, wish the people in your path a Merry Christmas, I bet it will make...
