Yesterday I gave an easter basket and some eggs to my neighbor. I think they are pretty hard up, and I had a random giant box of easter stuff that was given to me at work. Sometimes they get donations of the oddest stuff, and it’s “Hey Liz, do you want these for Day Camp?” If not, they pretty much are on their way to the dumpster. So they really could care less what I do with the stuff. So instead of make up some oddball reason to give out easter stuff in the dead of summer (which I could certainly do), I just gave a few away to the needy moms I know.
I also gave one of my down friends a major pep talk yesterday. She’s having boy troubles and self esteem issues. I reminded her of how great she is. I told her to quit living life like there is an imaginary panel of judges critiquing her every move and just do her best and try to enjoy it! She told me I really cheered her up and acutally thanked me. I was glad to help…she’s an amazing person but she refuses to see it at times!
