Best Feeling

The best feeling in the world is being able to give something to someone that they need. I joined a group called free cycle. An e-friend gave me the link and I went ahead and joined. Today someone said they needed a plastic baby gate. I was shocked as all get out because I have a very nice gate sitting here doing nothing. And, I have a bunch of kids toys to give away too. Sheshh, I need to put this stuff on the group so someone can come and get it. It's good stuff that the person that lived here before me just left. Anyway, I was so happy to be able to offer this gate to her/him. I'll be smiling all day now. that probably sounds silly but I'm just happy that someone said they needed something and I happen to have exactly what they were wanting.

After yesterday's spat with the food pantry and them telling me I couldtn come back for some bureaucratic reason it feels good to be able to find someone with a need that I can act on without stupid red tape and other unneccesary rules.

  • Have you also checked out http://www.craigslist.org? You need to go to the right hand side to choose your location. Then they have a ‘free’ section. With the free sites, you need to be careful, because sometimes there are ‘trolls’ that pretend they have something great to offer and then send you on a wild goose chase. Requesting a phone number or address is always a good idea to make sure it is legit. Also, if you put an ad for anything wanted in the free section, sometimes the ‘trolls’ will not be be very nice. This is just what I have seen. Glad you were able to give some things away! It has helped us stay more clutter free in our tiny apartment. :)
