~ Whatever Wednesday ~

Today is "Whatever Wednesday"
That is my new segment....sounds official doesn't it??!! HA!

For Whatever Wednesday I first want to mention that you should scroll down to yesterday's post - there is a GIVEAWAY for just listing something on your bucket list!!

Today I want to talk about what this world needs.
It needs some people who give a hoot.  I found that there are more people in this world who feel entitled than those who help out.
I have a friend who's son is turning 9 and he wanted to give his $20 from communion to help his teachers who were taking a pay cut.
A friend of my daughter decided to collect food for puppies and kitties who didn't have food or "parents" for his 3rd birthday.
My daughter turns 3 tomorrow and for his birthday party this weekend she wanted to give teddy bears to kids that were "having a bad day". In other words we are going to be collecting and donating teddy bears to the sheriff's department for them to give to kids on calls that they respond to.  They told us this helps calm both the kids and the parents down.
How is it that kids under the age of 10 can understand how important some things are and we have adults who think they just deserve things??
Makes me sick I tell ya.
We had a garage sale this weekend and everything that was left over (5 truck loads still!!!) we took right down to the local thrift as all their profits go back to the Women's Shelter...they can used the money more than I can use the stuff.

Okay - I feel a little like I have preached - but it is Whatever Wednesday...I got it off my chest...
I challenge you to do something good today....or everyday....it won't cost much if anything...

  1. LOL @ Whatever Wednesday - that works...then you can do whatever you want on that day whether it's rant, preach, post a pretty or a picture - it's your thing!
    I was just talking to my hair stylist about this. We must have missed the memo about people not giving a rip anymore. People just don't think, they don't care...people are just so...just bass ackwards these days. It's insane.
