We are now hearing about a coin shortage. Is this the media hype to get us all frustrated? I wonder. Or are they saying this so places don’t have to make change? It’s sure something to think about. Of course if there is a coin shortage or coins become no more, what will happen to piggy banks? I have a few I own. These days I’m not out anyplace to get coins; but when I do I piggy bank them; eventually I’ll take them to cash in at the bank. I don’t feel I’m hoarding coins.
My JULY piece was triggered when at the store I purchased peanut butter and jelly but my husband picked up bologna. I remembered as a kid my Grandma Fisher made homemade bread. I enjoyed peanut butter and my grandmother’s homemade jelly on her bread for PB&J. I was four when I visited my uncles family. My Aunt Isabell was making us sandwiches for lunch. I told her I did not bologna or mustard. She said in a sing songy voice “oh yes you do”. Well I found I did like bologna with yellow mustard sandwiches. They became my favorite for years. The shopping trip brought up memories of my relatives. To this day I still like bologna with yellow mustard sandwiches as well as PB&J. The piece for the weird holiday, BE SOMEONE DAY reflects on how you can be someone who can make others happy by being caring and kind. I used my terms on what I felt what comprises kindness. This was a hard piece to try to write in the twenty minute time frame but I felt it tells it all.
Today is National Junk Food Day, so have some typical junk treats.
Until tomorrow....be someone today by doing something special for another even it’s to say hello and how are you.

July 21st.... DAILY REFLECTIONS
I’m curious about the coin shortage....is it
just another media hype to get us all riled
up
Who are they blaming this on I wonder....
I guess coin hoarders better take their
piggy banks into the bank
Could it be that people don’t want to have
to make change....wants everything
rounded up to a dollar....think
about this

BEING KIND....MAKE SOMEONE’S
DAY
(Be Someone Day....July 21st)
(*This is my opinion and definition of what I think KINDNESS is. Everyone’s opinion differs I’m sure.*)

Be that someone today that makes another
smile
Show an act of kindness
It is easy....it doesn’t take an effort
Kindness.....is being friendly
Kindness.....is having consideration
Kindness....is showing generosity
Being kind does not have a price tag
there is no bar code to scan
It cannot be bought or purchased on-line
or at the store
Kindness comes from within you
it’s given freely to another
without expecting something in return
Little acts of kindness can go a long way
to show someone they matter
and giving you a good feeling
of contentment within your heart ❤️
Be that someone who makes another smile
today
It may make a difference in their life
and can make a difference in yours
