Just a courtesy reminder for the locals among you – registration closes today for the next session of Let’s Do This. Don’t let this year just float away from you – take charge and live with intention.
I hope to see you in my lounge 🙂
********************************************************
You all know I love a good project so this year I decided to do two fun projects:
- I’m sending out 52 pieces of “real” mail, via a post office :)… with stamps!
- I’m giving away 40 things (hopefully a lot more, but definitely 40 things) as God leads me
52 pieces of mail
I saw something on a blog late last year where the lady is sending out one letter a week. If you know the blog, please tell me (I was blog surfing from somewhere – it wasn’t on my normal list of reads).
Here’s the thing I want you to take note of:
I know myself and that the project wouldn’t work for me, just as is. I’d have a busy week or two and then feel like the project was compromised.
So I changed it to send out 52 pieces of mail, WHENEVER.
I can send 12 in one month, and nothing for two months. All good.
I’ve already sent out 5 notes and it’s been SO fun. I use bright markers, washi tape, stickers, etc. to make it FUN for the recipient.
So beware, if I have your address, you might be getting some happy mail from me.
40 things
I want to hear from God and obey. I especially want to be a vessel for God to work through.
I’ve already done two of these 40 random gifts and it’s quite scary – what if I miss it and the person thinks I’m psycho when I say “God said this is for you”….
But so far so good… both recipients were happy (and didn’t think me psycho) so that makes me happy.
Now I want to hear from you.
Wonderful idea and I like how you’ve modified the project. I’m doing my Monday selfie and a 365 day project. And now you’ve inspired me to do a monthly random act of kindness
DO IT! You won’t regret the random act of kindness… EVER! I’ve done at least 40 for the last 4 – 5 years and it is amazing 🙂
We’re doing family selfies! So far, not winning – but we’ll get there.
ps…got some sweet, fun mail yesterday! I LOVED it! Thank You. xx
HA! Glad you liked it – creativity for the win!
I can’t wait to see these family selfies! (Do you use timer cam? Free app that works brilliantly for us – bonus is the kids like the bird tweeting as it counts down and it’s one way no one has to hold the phone and press the shutter…)
