2nd December, 2nd donation.. ‘Picked up’ this piece of goodwill from my very kind neighbour – a lovely warm scarf for my alternative advent calendar. 🙏

As a change from having senior moments I’ve had an epiphany moment! I’m asking friends, family, neighbours if I can ‘pick up 1 piece of goodwill’ from them. That way, lots of people will be involved in my alternative advent calendar. I’m hoping to get treats, toiletries, gifts, that families can enjoy for 25 days AFTER Christmas when they will melt into the background of ‘normal’ life again. Give it a try….pick up a piece of goodwill!

1st day of December, 1st day of my ‘alternative’ advent calendar. Each day I shall add 1 piece of ‘goodwill’ for a family in need. Too many people are heading for a ‘rubbish’ Christmas but small acts of kindness, multiplied by millions of people, can change that!
