Week 4 (or, how to score free BBQ sauce)

Monday: A friend had a medical procedure done this day, so I sent her a text asking how she was feeling. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but I know that the last time I had a medical procedure done, even though it was minor, I was touched by people sending me a little note to show they were thinking of me.
Tuesday: I held the door not once, but twice, for people going in an out of the gas station.
Wednesday: I let someone else go first at an intersection when we both arrived at the 4 way stop at the same time.
Thursday: I let a co-worker know how much I appreciated her work and how well I thought she did her job.
Friday: The husband and I went to Pappy's Smokehouse for dinner. After 6 years of living here, we finally found some good barbecue! We talked with a waitress who happened to be walking by and told her how much we absolutely loved the food. She asked us what we liked, if there was a particular sauce we liked best and some other things. The next thing you know, she came back to the table with a bottle of the sauce we liked, saying that her dad is the owner and they appreciate the compliments. Yay for free sauce!
Saturday: I slowed down to let someone in in traffic on my way to a training that morning.
Sunday: The husband and I were a team on this day. We did some good stuff both directly and indirectly. We cleaned out the linen closet and the coat closet and consequently, had a bunch of stuff in decent shape that we no longer needed. So we took it to Goodwill. On our way to go get lunch after dropping off our stuff, we saw someone we know walking down the road. We stopped and offered him a ride to his destination, which he happily accepted. I know it was nice out Sunday, but if you can offer someone a ride, why not?
