My car got stuck last night as I tried to get it off the road for the plows. 3 kids who were walking by with sleds, all came over and pushed as I rocked it out. Thanks kids, sure saved me !

During this snow storm, I was heading to the grocery anyways , so I called 5 of my friends and asked if they needed anything. Since I was already out, may as well pick up what they need as well. That's what friends do

So I did something nice today... I was at Happy Dayz getting food for myself and my fiance and this family came in with two young kids and I pulled out a $1.00 for each one ( a boy and girl) and handed it to the dad and I told him here let them get whatever they want out of one of the machines. Both of the parents said really and I said yes. I told them to have a Happy Holiday and to enjoy their food and told the kids to enjoy their treats. I got a ty from both kids. Made my heart full!

Dealing with switching health insurance, called the Express Scripts office. After talking to AI and screaming at the robot for 10 minutes, i was transferred to a lady who was very nice, pleasant to talk to and offered help with my issues. She apologized for the robot and we laughed about the state of "customer service". Thanks Aubreeana (spelling ?) for making the clinical phone call sorta fun, I appreciate the kindness

It was snowing while we were in church today. When we got out , we were surprised to see that some of the children had snuck out and cleaned the snow off the 22 cars in the parking lot. Very much appreciated!

Animal Kindness ! All Starr Pets of Elida passed out over 19 pallets of food for cats and dogs to over 150 cars yesterday. Great act of kindness within our community. Caring for our furry friends

We did a Teacher Appreciation Day today for 46 teachers in Lima. We created a DIY Trail Mix Bar for their teachers and staff to appreciate all they do!

During the holiday season, we left an extra quarter in the cart at Aldi. Yep, that could have been us !

My kind neighbor got his snowblower out and did 6 of his neighbors sidewalks and driveways. When I asked what do I owe, he said "Nothing, I need the exercise". Great neighbors are a blessing

My boyfriend and I received a really high quality, old-fashioned (as in, they don't make them this sturdy anymore!) table and chair set from a kind older couple who were giving it away for free. It made them so happy to be able to give the table to young first time homeowners instead of selling it.

A friend cut another friend’s hair at home since they weren’t able to drive.

My good friends and colleagues from Now Marketing sent me a Sugar Wish, to choose a gift of my choice. I chose Hot Pepper Raspberry jam. Sure is tasty on a waffle on a cold winter morning. I appreciate it, so kind !

Today my friends and I celebrated my birthday by serving 30 men at the rescue mission.

One of our "kind" suggestions is to re- connect or check in with people you haven't talked to in while. Here is a photo of the end result of that. Jodi created a group chat and coordinated a fantastic get together of 9 of us who worked closely together many moons ago and some haven't seen others in years. Great stories, laughs and cheer ! We plan to do it again soon. Thanks for making it happen , everyone! #doingA0K
