31 Days of Giving –Day 2

This was my surprise for today.

I woke up this morning and literally asked myself what I should do today, and a certain person’s name popped into my head, and I immediately knew what I wanted to do.

So I packaged up a nice bottle of wine…..

and intended to be anonymous, but it didn’t turn out the way I planned. But, you know what??

Seeing my friend’s reaction was the best!

When she said, “You have no idea who much I needed this today!”……

Told you I am a quote whore…

“And what happened, then? Well, in Whoville they say - that the Grinch's small heart grew three sizes that day. And then - the true meaning of Christmas came through, and the Grinch found the strength of *ten* Grinches, plus two! “

You will remember one of my goals of this project was to improve my outlook on the holiday season, remember the true meaning and cheer myself up.

As I drove away, with a wonderful smile pasted like a stupid fool on my face, I could literally feel a warmth growing in my chest, and I really thought of this clip from the Grinch.

The.feeling.was.palpable.

Nice.
