Good deed for the day
« on: March 16, 2009, 12:55:18 pm »
This morning this lady came running after me while I was out a walk with the 3 dogs (cocker spaniels). She wanted to know where I had got them from as she was desperate to get another cocker following the death of her own last year and who has just retired. I put her onto the breeder I got 2 of mine from and explained that the current litter had been sold but she may be looking to re home one of her older girls. Well, the lady contacted the breeder and was indeed offered one of the 3 yr old girls, so now a happy lady.

So, what was your good deed for the day?

James :dog:

I'm ashamed to say that I can't think of one ..... I will try much harder tomorrow. The world would be a much nicer place if we all tried to do one nice thing each day!
Thanks for the prompt James!

I spent an hour or so in the very early hours of this morning evaluating and providing constructive criticism on a young lad's photographs to encourage him to improve and keep learning... does that count? The alternative would be "I didn't shout at anyone." :)

I represented my neighbours at a Community Council meeting to persuade them to set up an Open meeting about these blasted trains running through the night to add to the pile of coal at Longannet.  I am so tired just now from lack of sleep that i fell asleep this afternoon for about an hour while the dogs trashed my sitting room and the cats scratched up a carpet.  I didn't kill them. Does that count?

ok so now I am praying nobody I know reads this. An old lady in the village rang a few weeks ago to place a regular order for eggs which I deliver to her as she cant walk to the cottage. I always stay for a cup of tea and a chat. today was no different only as she led me into her conservatory to show me the plant which I had given her last week (she was a bit down last week and I thought it would cheer her up), she also stopped to show me a dozen runner beans and a dozen broad beans which apparently she is bringing on for me. Fabulous I replied not daring to tell her about the 3 dozen runner beans I have coming on in the polytunnel let alone the 2 dozen broard beans I currently have for sale in a tray at the cottage gate!!!!!  :D :D

Ah... so you kindly reminded them where they lived. That's definitely a good deed!  ;D

I have not shouted or vented my anger at anyone today.

It is still early, but so far so good.

OK, i haven't actually seen anyone all day - except the dog. But i'm taking it as a good sign!
