Not only is it Friday the 13th, but it’s also World Kindness Day. What’s a kind or small good deed you did recently?
I’m very glad that it’s Friday, as I always am. Fridays after work I typically reserve for doing as little as possible. I don’t cook, we order in and I don’t even do the dishes, they stay as they are, piled in the sink til Saturday morning. I thank my type B personality for that.
But this evening we’re having Sid’s 6th birthday party at the bowling alley. His actual birthday isn’t until Wednesday the 18th but who want to host twenty 5-6 year olds on a workday? So we’re getting it done tonight. He’s very excited.
I’m not superstitious so that fact that it’s Friday the 13th is lost on me. In my 49 years, there was only one time where something went wrong on a Friday the 13th and it wasn’t even that bad.
Something kind I’ve done…this has me thinking that I need to practice this more purposefully because, besides holding doors etc, I’m not coming up with much.
Last night I did wrap up the current fundraiser for The Sidney Project however, so I guess that’s something. I was able to raise nearly one thousand dollars which will go towards buying brand new, brand name shoes that I will send by air to the community of Shamattawa, way up in the northeast corner of the province and gift them to kids in school there.
I hope the powers that be at Microsoft get things working again soon because it’s very frustrating to try and work with a major piece of the puzzle missing.
