Aha! I Did It.

Date December 4, 2009

Well, I finally have something to blog about in regards to the NaBloPoMo Mitzvah theme.

I was at a friend’s event earlier in the evening when a woman comes in the door and tells my friend that she, “has that stuff in the car.” To which my friend replies, “oh crap, yeah, OK, let me get my coat and I’ll help you.”

My first thought was, “what the heck? She didn’t sound happy about having to get her coat and help her.” I was planning on just sitting there and wait for the two of them to get back from the “oh crap” car load of stuff.

Then I heard the one lady say as she was going out the door to her car, “….. but it’s really heavy, I can’t believe that a printer can be that heavy.”

::sigh::

Me: “Do ya’ll need some help?”

Their reply, in unison, “Sure!”

So down the stairs we go and out to the cold and to the other gal’s car to retrieve one office chair and one very large printer/scanner/copier/fax machine.

We unloaded the rolling office chair and then the printer and sat the printer on top of the chair and rolled it into the building. The building did not have an elevator so the other two ladies toted up the printer while I hoist the chair up on my own.

There, that was my human kindness act for the day, and also my blog post.

I probably will not continue on with this theme for the rest of the month because I hate telling about whatever good deed I have done for the day and it is probably for one or two reasons:

1. I didn’t do a good deed for the day, or
2. Bragging is unattractive

Ya’ll have a good night. I’m doing 8 miles in the morning (running) and it is going to be COLD. Oh and tomorrow I get my purple hair. I’ll send up some pics when I get it done.

Night ya’ll. Much love.


Who is c.a. Marks you ask?  This is me. I haven't thought up a clever enough "byline" yet to post here. Maybe I'll run a survey.


First time commenters are moderated. The system will also occasionally moderate your comments even if you comment here regularly. So if you leave a comment and don't see it, don't panic or think that I deleted it. I moderate comments as quickly as possible, but from time to time, real life gets in the way. So please be patient with me! Thanks.

    Can’t wait to see the hair! I’m working my way up to trying red again. Last time was a DISASTER of the highest degree. That I’m willing to try again just shows how shameless I am in my pursuit of being a hot redhead. pffft! LOL!

    YOU must post photos of your hair IMMEDIATELY so I can die of jealousy!

    NaBloPoMo – I don’t think I have EVER in the many (4 or 5? LOL!) months of trying NaBloPoMo have ever tried to post on the single theme all month. I think I’m doing good to post AT ALL most days. Trying to post on a particular subject would kill my blogging spirit. Either I have ADD or I’m just too fickle. Or maybe it’s still the whole political-blogger-burnout thing.

    As God is my witness, I’ll never commit to a single blog subject AGAIN!

    Heh.

    c.a, you have just shown what a great Scout you are by having done your good deed for the day. CORRECTION: Having seen you in person (my lucky day) I should have said, “what a great GIRL Scout are”. :-)
