Do something nice day!

My something nice day, presents each one of
you with a cupcake, baked and stacked up by, none other
than my "Italian Stallions"




Today is my " do something nice day", its the end of the week and I am in a good mood, as I have the weekend off. So what better day then today, to just do one thing nice for someone else. Maybe I can pick up something that someone dropped or open the door for someone, or just tell someone to have a nice day.

I am going to make a conscious effort today and give it my all. Each day I forget the little things, that perhaps might cheer someone up. So on my journey today, I will remember that perhaps someone is not having such a nice day, and maybe my "do something nice day" will give them the smile that they so need.

Will you join me?

  29. Morning Owls!!!

  30. I think we need to have a "Moron of the day" day too.

    For example, in our city you must place your garbage containers (city issued) on the curb for pickup. This is done with hydrolic arm on truck. So, I watch someone pull up to the curb, right in front of the bins, look at their car as they get out, look at the bins, look at the car, then just walk away.

    I am so rooting for the big bad ass garbage truck to come and smash into the nice black Lexus out there. Or perhaps attempt to reach the bins and spill all the stuff on top of it. Moron of the day.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Oh Oh! I see a stack of cupcakes! I just put on 10#s! I better go back & read the blog. Maybe it's not an all-you-can-eat day lol!

Get this, he fences across his driveway for his dogs and can't use it, so he parks across the street in front of my trash barrel, every freakin week!!! Yesterday I finally went out and put my barrel in front of his driver side door. We'll see if he gets the hint!!!

  44. Happy Friday Owls.

    Carol, Instead of giving up something for Lent, I made a committment to do something nice for someone every day. I try to do this anyway, but for Lent I am trying to do more.

  45. All our TV stations are pre-empting usual shows to bring the funeral of the four officers who were killed in the line of duty on the same day, in Oakland.

    They were killed by a guy for whom an arrest warrant had been issued. The first two officers stopped him for a traffic violation and he shot them both and fled. The other two were shot with an AK47 which the guy shot from behind a door, and it went right through and killed them.

    They say this is the first time four officers have been killed on the same day. They expect up to 19,000 people to attend. It is being held at the Oracle Arena (formerly the Oakland Coliseum) in Oakland. Very sad.

    ReplyDelete
  46. SacBarb we are taping the service on tv today. MR. EBJ and I have been in tears the past 6 days, it is so very sad.

    Carol thank you fro the nice blog today, I'm at work and will be extra nice today.

    Our patients really appreciate kindness, especially when they are sick or having a bad day.

    LOL @ bitch slap!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Tina, Congrats on 1-10. Nice convo you had with psycho Eunice.

    LynnD, I'll bet you do something nice every day for Mr. Lynn.

    IBB, I need you in the store when I shop. I am vertically challenged.

    NN, LOL @ bitch slap day.

    Carol, I think you should wait til after Lent to have 'bitch slap day'

    Zona, I'll get the stuff from the bottom shelf for you and you can get the stuff from the top for me. Have fun on your date tonight.

    Goldie, I have one of those morons on my street too. Maybe he's related to your moron and MEK's and Scirish's.

    Mary, LOL @ all you can eat day.

    MEK, congrats on 50

    Bear, Waving at you too.

    ReplyDelete
  48. EBJ, They are playing bag pipes now and the tears are rolling for me too.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Sending out prayers to the officers and their families. How sad. :(

    ReplyDelete
  50. Carol, I would like to report that I have been a very good girl today. Rather than bitch slapping my husband, I told him I loved him...and then I reached my hand out for his paycheck. :D Did I do good? Can I bitch slap him tomorrow when he has nothing to offer?

    ReplyDelete
  51. Just and update!

    Carol and LL you will be proud to know that I have not bitch slapped anyone yet today! That counts for doing something nice. Right?

    I am very afraid if we do have a bitch slap day my hand would fall off as the line would be so long. Sigh

    Be back in a bit.

    ReplyDelete
  52. CAROL - I'd say the Italian Stallions are ready for the Food Network's cake decorating challenge. Thank you for your uplifting blog today.

    Well, I helped a friend with a problem today. Does that count? I have said before that I think there is no greater honor than to be of service to our fellow human beings (as always I include the animals).

    My prayers are still with those who need healing. Tink I hope Tango will be okay.

    Love to all of my fellow OWLS.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Tina: Congrats on first!

    Carol: Wonderful blog! Very nice!

    I know some people that I would love to "bitch slap" too. haha, but it probably isn't a good thing to do on a "nice day"..for sure. lol

    Anyway, how did the "Nice day" blog get turned into a discussion about bitch slapping?

    Goldie: That guy does sound like he is a moron. That is a shame. I hope he gets the hint with the cans in front of his car door!

    Lani: That was a nice post.

    Okay..I am about to leave and go walking..everyone have a great night. I will be back much later. Hugs!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Gunnfunnit I got F'n FOADED~!

    Carol:

    I don't really like cupcakes but can I play with the frosting? It's kinda like whipped cream yeah? lmao

    I did my good deed for the month....and it was a whopper so I think I have Karma credit right now. But I always hold open doors, pick up rubbish off the ground and because I am 5'9" I am regularly asked to grab things off the higher shelves in most stores. The lil old asain ladies just kinda point, but they do say thank you when you hand it to them.

    Have a great day all.

    EBJ you have myspace mail.

    JodiHO....neener neener neener...

    Hi Hooters.

    My Moron of the day didn't get his car full of garbage. They got out of the truck a pulled the bins over. Damn

    I went to the DMV today and waited an hour and let me tell you how entertaining that was! I looked around and of the 50 or so people, there were a mix of all kinds, but I can safely say that I was one of a few speaking English.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Oh dear....i wanted pasta so bad tonight....it's just me and my youngest....and we were going to go to Olive Garden, but it was packed....so we went to Apollo Burger and I had a grilled cheese sandwich!~
