 So does this mean you're going to start a Mean Friday thread?

How about a F@ck it Friday thread!

 I want that one!

Thought I would start this idea early and give everyone a chance to think of something kind to do for someone else.

I know I am making chili tomorrow, so I plan on taking a big bowl over to an elderly neighbor down the street. I noticed she has not been getting out much during all these cold snaps and I know she would love some company. She's in her mid 70's and has a hard time getting around.

I would like to hear of any and all good deeds for the day.  That's IF you want to share.

 Nice idea, Czech. Good idea that you're giving folks lots of time to think, appears that some may need it.  

We have been helping neighbors with our snowblower. I think we can blow out another space in the next few days.

When I do something kind for someone, I don't wish to post about it.  I prefer to go unacknowledged.  Being kind is something I strive to do in my daily life.  I will do a kindness, but not share it or let others know.  I just let it go.  I feel like I am tooting my own horn by mentioning it, and I do not wish to be seen as that "guess what kind act I did today for ______" person.  I am also a very humble being, and as long as I know I did something kind, that is good enough for me.  No need to share it with the world.

If others wish to share, I have no problem with that.   

It's 27° and still dropping. Can I stay home?

My kindness will come on Saturday. My church runs the local coffee shop. The guy that works there is a volunteer and only gets paid tips. He lost his leg in a car accident a year ago and is on disability. When I'm there, I slip a ten in the tip jar. I can afford it and I know he needs it.

I like reading about good deeds. So much of the news is bad.

Thanks for starting the thread, Czech.

 Good for you, DG, I'm sure he really appreciates it.

---

 I have to sneak it in when he's not looking and deny any knowledge of it lol. I've offered help, but he always refuses. So this is how I've found to do it

I like reading others good deeds too. I do little things for people all the time. I don't do them so I can run out and tell people about them. I do them because I like to see other people happy. I know that sharing those stories spreads the joy even further. 

Good morning! Great idea for a thread! Regardless of whether people choose to post about their kindness, I hope it inspires them to go out in the world a spread a little.

I will not tell the fraud rep off at the bank. I am locked out of all my accounts. That wasn't pleasant last night.

What? All your accounts??

I'm sorry.

I met my monthly kindness quota already, so I can be a beotch for the rest of February!

I'm fighting today to be nice. Too many jerks.

It's -10 here. With the windchill it's about -30 they said. The weather guy said this is the last deep chill before spring. The first week of March it's supposed to get up to 30 and not look back. He had better be right. Lol. Although 30 is still technically below freezing, it would be a 40 degree temp swing, and if you account for windchill, it would be 60 degrees warmer than we are now!

 It's 15 here.  Kids are both home sick.  Baby J has caught the Bronchitis from DD10 and woke up in the night with a fever of 104.5.  She was surprisingly alert, coming to get me to get her a drink.  When I was tucking her back in, I felt the burning heat.  Geesh.  I hope the doctor will call her in an antibiotic without going in since she just saw her sister.  It's too cold out to be taking kids with bronchitis out.

---

Wow, that's a high fever for a 3 year old!

I always worried about the cold air causing bronchial spasms when our kids were sick. Sick little ones is so scary! Hope she gets better soon.

I just got off the phone. 3 sites trying to access my accounts. Told them close all of them, lock them down and reissue cards.

---

How the heck does this happen?

Glad you caught it and are in the process of closing everything down. Hope you have some cash on hand! 

---

My brother handed me cash.  I won't see new cards until Monday.  Sadly?  I had gone to Target.  He thinks that is where my card got swiped.

I'm glad you strive to be kind in your daily life. And, you are right, we don't need to post about our kindness to others. It is nice to share on rare occasions and inspire someone else.

A smile to a strange can be uplifting to the stranger, but the world would never know it.

It's all good.

How's everyone's day going so far?
I have to get groceries yet today. Brr, hate going out in the cold.

Good morning Lexxy.
