Pay it Forward

I hope everyone had a super fantastic Thanksgiving. Last week, J was down to visit me a few nights before Turkey Day, so I didn't have any time to blog. Excuses, excuses.

Nearly four months in, and we're still in that laugh at each other-good times phase. I hope this never ends. It's nauseating to our friends. Friday night, I brushed my teeth before bed and came into the bedroom. I was greeted by dim lighting and multiple candles burning. As I passed by a few, I said, "Do you want me to blow these out?" Talk about a way to ruin the mood. We had a good laugh over that one.

Sunday evening, I went with J to a "Pay it Forward" party. Everyone brings a gift and plays dirty Santa Claus, but you also make a cash only donation. That money goes to the outreach program at church, to help needy families around the holidays. No one knows who gives what, and the church leaders don't know who's involved to donate. I think about 25 or so people showed up to participate. We raised $4001 at the end of the night. It was pretty cool.

So even though the movie was a bust, I encourage you all to think about how to Pay it Forward.

Here's to a good week!
Smooches.
