Tuesday June 24 2008 - Pay it Forward
So I forgot I have to do something on my blog since I was the lucky winner on Tanis's blog a week or so ago. Thanks to her....I am steadily gaining weight on that tasty fudge she brought me! Thanks A LOT TANIS!!!!! (You just don't want to share your clothes with me do you??)
Anyway, so I've been thinking a lot today about the whole idea of paying it forward. Our little community here witnessed something amazing last night. I just feel so privileged to have been there to see it. Seriously, I couldn't get over the size of the line up of people waiting (and HAPPILY waiting at that!). Not often you'll find people waiting in a line for an hour... just for a hot dog or burger, and hear no complaining about the speed that line was moving! Anyway, here's who the fundraiser was for.... and that's the even more amazing part!

Anyway, if that doesn't tug at your heart strings.....????????
I just feel for that sweet family and what they are struggling with right now and this huge outpouring of love and support for them. It's really heart warming!
So that's my pay it forward. Do something for someone else. You can enter your name in the comments section here and just briefly share what you did! Then I'll randomly draw a winner!!!! It can be anything you want.... only it MUST be for SOMEONE ELSE and it MUST be something NICE.
With Canada Day coming up, how thankful I am for this amazing country we live in... and even more especially for this special town we call home! So as a twist, whatever you do needs to include the color RED somehow! Even if it's just a red note or something? Whatever!!!
So there's my pay it forward.... nice..... red... .and someone else!
Have fun. And I'll sometime later next week after Canada Day!!!!
Oh and prize.... hmmmm.... not sure yet! Either way it will be six half a dozen of another cause there are no real losers in this game! You'll come out feeling great no matter what!...(But I'll get back to you on the prize issue!).
