I was nominated for the cool award by Mws R Writings and I am really excited to tell you about an act of kindness that a friend just did for me.
I wanted to go to the fitness center today and my husband has a standing date on Friday to take our friend Bob out to lunch. Both are veterans and Bob is the husband of my best friend who just passed away in March. Anyway, Harry is being kind to do that, but I really wanted to go to the gym. So, I packed some crackers and a cheese stick and told Harry that I would wait at the local library for him to finish his lunch with Bob and then we could go to the gym together. My friend Pam, who works near the library, found out what I was doing and came by to pick me up and take me to lunch at a new restaurant nearby. What a sweetie! I got to see my friend whom I have not seen in over a year and I got to have a regular lunch! I am so thankful for my friend who went out of her way to pick me up, take me to lunch and bring me back to the library to meet Harry…all when she was supposed to be working at her business.
Mws R came up with this award because so many of us are touched by random acts of kindness, and they are worth mentioning.
All through life we encounter people who for no apparent reason help us, or extend a hand when needed. Some do it directly and some do it indirectly.
Rules are posted on original award post, but here is a recap.
1- copy or paste image for reward on your post.
2- Write a paragraph on a random act of kindness, either you saw, was given to you, or you have done. It is okay to spread the love people. You donβt have to name specific names or whatever but tell us about it.
3- Share this award and link to original post or tag the person who nominated you.
4- If you should want to do this then you can leave an open ended invitation, or personally tag others.
5- Pictures are a good share to, if you have pictures to share a random act of kindness, that is great!

I enjoyed it. Sorry it took so long. I had to wait until I was at the library because we have limited data here in rural Virginia. Thank you for nominating me!
