Kindness of Strangers

Hello to all!!  Something wonderful happened to me today and I thought you might enjoy reading about it.  I was out running some errands and I was kind of in a hurry.  I went through the checkout line, paid for my purchases and gathered all my bags.  I proceeded out the door and then realized that the cashier had forgotten my soda.  I went back in and she realized that she had forgotten to ring it up.  I told her that it was alright and I would just get back in line and pay for it.  Looking up I noticed that the line had grown and she was the only register that was open.  Just as I started walking towards the back of the line I heard a voice say "Just give it to me."  I look up and it was a lady who had been behind me in line.  She said that she would pay for it.  I told her thanks and I reached into my purse for my wallet so I could pay her and she said  "No, consider it a gift from me to you."  She said there was no need for me to go all the way back in line for one thing.  I tried to pay her again but she wouldn't take it.  I thanked her again and told her that I had done the same thing for someone else not that long ago.  She then said "See it all comes back around".  I was really touched.  I'm glad to see that even in these trying times there are still nice people out there.  I've always believed in the motto "What goes around - Comes around."  It's true - Life is too short to be wearing a frown all the time.    Besides, did you know that it takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile.  It's a fact!!  So, put on a happy face and be kind to others because it'll come back to you when you least expect it.  As for the lady who did that act of kindness, I don't know your name but keep it up and Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!  :)

What a great day!!

                                                        WHAT A GREAT DAY!!                                                                 Hello to everyone!!  The pictures above are of  the BIG Yard Sale - Book Sale day.  So much FUN!!  The weather was beautiful and as you can see there were a lot of people who came out to enjoy the festivities. 
We not only had the book sale going on inside the antique mall but we also had a tent set up outside with the other vendors as part of the yard sale.  Our tent is the one pictured above with the balloons attached to it.  There was live music and it brought out the dancing bug in some people.  Gotta love it!!  In the end, it turned out to be a wonderful day.  We talked with a lot of people, some of which were familiar faces and the others were of some new friends we made.  THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to all of the customers we had and to all of those people who helped us with the Book Sale.  Each and every one of you hold a special place in our hearts.  The book sale was a BIG success and there was a lot of talk of how well it was received.  We are so glad!!  So, with that in mind, get ready book lovers because we will be doing this again.  Stay tuned. . . we will keep you posted as to when the next one will be.  It won't be long.  I promise.  C-ya soon!!:)
