247: I let my neighbour borrow my bus passes today when her son wouldn't get on the school bus. He was having trouble adjusting to school every day and refused to go with the other children. She managed to take him on the city bus, and I managed to save her the bus fare.
248: I gave some homemade granola bars to my next door neighbour and her boyfriend. They weren't really granola bars, but a variation on a brownie recipe that I made healthy enough to double as a breakfast bar. Too delicious to keep them all to myself.
249: I skipped my sacred book club to look after J's friend overnight. If I hadn't done it, he probably would have stayed with his grandparents out of town and had to miss school. Unfortunately, no one attended the book club and the girl hosting it was so disappointed that she told me she's not going to be part of it anymore.
250: I was very upset about my friend opting out of book club. I haven't known her long, but I really admire her and was very glad she was part of the group. I sent her an email telling her this, hoping she would change her mind or at least keep in touch. I haven't heard back from her yet, but I tried.
251: I put some canned soup into the local donation bin today.
252: I donated $2 to a charity that helps local kids join sports teams. I got a bouncy ball out of it, but that's not what I did it for. It's hard to pay a monthly membership that allows my children to join sports and swimming groups, but we manage to do it. I wanted to help the parents and kids who can't afford it.
