Take Part II - Random Acts of Kindness

Well, today is the last official day of Be Kind to Yourself Month.  For me, the month went well, and despite my husband working overtime nearly every night and weekend, we both managed to find time to do things for ourselves.

My last official act was to go to a card making party - a hobby I’ve always wanted to try.  Although I was intimidated because I literally knew noone going (it was my first meeting with a womens’ group I joined), I went anyway and was really glad I did.

Now I’d like to try performing Random Acts of Kindness.  In our society I think we value or privacy and isolation more than reaching out to help someone.  Even reaching out and saying a kind word to a stranger who’s having a bad day.  So who’s in?  I’ll set something up on my forums so we can share more regularly the great things we’re doing!

Cheers everyone.

It’s funny that at the same time of year we are most self-indulgent is the exact same time of year many of us resolve to do it differently next year. I usually don’t fall into the trap of the New Year’s Resolution, unless you count in my youth the resolution to party more. [...]

Has Everyone Caught Their Breath Yet?

In just a few days the holidays will be a thing of the past - a bittersweet time.  On the one hand we’ll all get some much needed rest - I often wonder what I’ll do with myself just after the holidays when there’s no more baking, shopping, wrapping, and finishing up gifts.  Then again, [...]
