do one nice thing every day

I’m going to pick up and deliver my mom’s prescriptions

my mom is sick, so most of my things are going to be mom-focused for a while. It’s hard to do nice things for my mom with only an altruistic motive- I’m so used to being rewarded with money or favors in kind. That sounds terrible, but it’s true. I was kind of spoiled as a kid. So now, I’m just trying to be nice to my mom when she’s sick, like she was nice to me when I was sick.

I don’t have the internet at home (long story) so I’ll write down my weekend plans now.
Saturday: Do some errands for my mom, since she’s been feeling sick, and spend some time with her.
Sunday: Tell a stranger that she’s wearing a cute outfit.

I considered the feelings of my friend and didn’t call her before I knew she would be awake. Also, I’m making an effort to smile more and make more eye contact.

call my mom and ask how her book is going.

Make a fancy dinner for my boyfriend. This is kind of making up for this morning, when I woke him up getting ready for work.
Edit: He ended up wanting to eat dinner at work, so I just made dessert instead.

Call and ask how my friend’s job interview went.
Edit: That seemed to go ok, but not great. I will try to think of something nicer to do for her.

go visit my mom. Actually, that doesn’t count, because I have a number of ulterior motives. I’ll call her and see if there’s anything I can pick up on the way.
(Edit): I ended up going to pick up her prescription for her, which was definitely nice, because she felt way too sick to go get it. Yay!
