Everything is more fun with a friend. Even the smallest things can and will make you giggle. Like school girls.
Tonight was an adventure and a feel good way to celebrate 'hump day'.
Stop 1. Doing the groceries with children in tow can bring even the most laid-back parent to tears. To bring a smile to a tired parent/babysitter/sibling/grandparent and hopefully improve their morning we left a small gift of $2 and a message to "have a wiggly good time".
Stop 2. If we are honest, nobody likes paying for parking. We left a suprise for one shopper... "just because".
Stop 3. Finishing work at 11pm after spending 8 or so helping people who are experiencing stressful and traumatic experiences is draining. Insurance call-centre workers do not get the recognition they deserve for giving so many people peace of mind in these moments. We just wanted to say thankyou and leave you a small token of happiness to greet you after an emotionally draining nights work.
Stop 4. Not everyone is so fortunate to have clothes on their back and blankets to keep them warm. The amazing people who donate their time to charities sorting out the bags and bags of clothes and items donated deserve to be thanked. Children growing up should have books and comics to put a smile on their face. We have donated items to contribute to the "Cancer and Bowel Research Association" and left a note to the volunteers to thank them for their kindness.
ASecretSmile :)
