Day 1, January 11th, 2009

Nathan:


So, basically I dropped the ball on day 1. It was 7 pm and I needed to stop by the grocery store to pick up something. While standing in line all of the sudden it hit me that it was my day to do something kind for someone. I started to panic "how could I tell my family that I forgot on the FIRST DAY" and yet I still honestly didn't know what to do and I was nervous about it. But I had committed too. So, on my way out of the grocery store there was an older lady in front of me. I walked up to her and said "Maam, would it be okay if I helped you with your groceries today?" I was smiling and told her I promised not to steal them. She said yes and thanked me a few times, so I pushed her cart to her car and loaded the groceries in her back seat. Her name was Sue and she was not a big talker but either am I so it was okay....so this was a start.
