Napa, our dog, has been on a paper plate binge. I don’t know where he finds them all the time, but every five minutes, there seems to be a new one on the floor, ripped up and tossed around. Today I’m going to clean this one room, his paper plate den, where plates keep exploding.
As for you, well, surely there’s something you’ve been meaning to clean!
We all know somebody that is looking for a job. Today, help a friend in their job hunt. Contact colleagues at other companies and inquire about job openings. Search through job listings, or even connect them with a LinkedIn contact. You can make a huge difference in someone’s life by helping them find a job.
Today you’re going to give print a chance. Pick up the newspaper and read till your heart is content. We plan on picking up the New York Times. The truth is, I’ve never read the Times paper but I’ve enjoyed their articles online. What paper did/will you buy?
Picnics are one of those things that you just never plan enough of. Today, Amanda and I are planning a picnic out on the boat. I’m sure we’ll find a great place to drop anchor and nom. Thankfully Napa will have two lifeguards keeping a watchful eye on him, unlike last time when he jumped off the boat like a maniac.
Today, leave treasure where somebody will find it. It could be a stack of quarters, a gift card, or little trinkets. Sometimes I like to do this and hope that whatever I’ve left will make someone’s day. Leave clues to where you hide your treasures in the comments.
I find myself reading more and more comics online. It’s kinda ironic because I was never really into comics as a kid. Today, head over to your friendly neighborhood comic shop and grab an issue. If you’re not familiar with any current stories ask someone at the store to help you out.
Sometimes I forget to listen to music. It’s really weird, I’ll go through periods of time where I don’t listen to any music. Today I’ll be cranking up the tunes and sneaking over to Hype Machine to hear what the kids are into.
Do you forget to listen to music too?
I’m always singing silly songs to Amanda. I can’t help it. It’s fun! If you chicken out at the last minute you can always sing a silly song to yourself.
It’s really practical to learn how to fix things. You’ll save yourself money and get the satisfaction of doing it on your own. Today I’ll be learning how to fix a lawn mower. Wish me luck!
Did you learn how to fix anything today? Be sure to share it with us in the comments.
We’re gearing up to go on a diet. We’ll be spending the day clearing the cabinets of junk food. Shopping for healthy foods and prepping meals for the week. Our diet starts Monday and we’re never looking back! For us, this diet is the beginning of a permanent lifestyle change.
