12 Random things

So I have decided on my goal for the year. It is to do 12 random selfless acts/things. It can be money, a service, time, gift etc. No limit at all, it just has to be totally for someone elses benefit.
And why 12?? Well thats simple ;) that makes it one a month. Totally manageable!
So my first random thing from back in Jan. (Yes month late posting but hopefully that means Ill remain Anom. ;) Plus I didnt have photos of it so had to steal the ones she took, hope she doesnt mind!!)
A TNNer (Nappy networker www.thenappynetwork.org.nz/forum ) had missed out on her secret santa swap as the other person didnt send anything :( how sad is that! So I made her a bag (ottobre design) a set of stitch markers and included a cut of mushroom fabric and big block of choc. Oh and it was wrapped up in a big picture painted by Jake, which she lovingly added in the pictures :D so lovely of her to do that!
It cheered her up and she seemed to like it which is what I hoped it would do :)
I didnt let the organiser tell her who it was from as to me that means Id recieve credit and would make it seem less about her, which I didnt want, as it was all about her and her knowing we hadnt missed noticing she had missed out. (But Maybe Im just strange as most people own up??)

And now Im half way thru month 2, Im getting worried I have no idea what to do! I doubt buying my friends a shot of tequila each the pub the other night counts! So Ill have to keep thinking. I thought Id struck gold when my friend said she needed 3mths rego for her partner to start a new job but alas no Winz covered it for them. So back to the drawing board...
