the kindness challenge

i’m soooo very sick right now – a little bug that came on suddenly.   not feeling at all my typical self – quarantined from the world in my warm bed while i proof a wedding on the laptop.  I don’t get sick often but it seems like it always chases a really busy week.  had fun plans for tonight/tomorrow that look like they might get derailed…ugh. 

but, have something fun i want to share – tammy, a dear friend, was in chicago for an oprah taping last week (watch today – i think it’s airing) and $1000 was given to each audience member as part of a kindness challenge to go and do great kindness in their area.  and man alive, tammy can spring to action…there are so many events happening and she’ll be videotaping them and sending them to the Oprah show.  doesn’t the whole idea of a ‘Kindness Chalenge’ sound like fun?  so, go visit embracehumankind.com – there’s a spot to gather ideas, learn more and see what you can be a part of. 

tammy’s amazing father passed away this time last year so the loving catalyst on her part to do this is to have an action-filled memorial to him.  so terrific!  here’s to kindness!

Back from China! Sorry to hear that you are sick. Bummer. FYI, mark 2 weeks off your calander in 2007. You ARE going to China! I kept saying to Dan, OMG, Melanie would love this or Melanie has to see that!
Get better soon!

So you’re definitely putting China on the to-do list for 07? awesome! But I’m hoping for a long jaunt to Capri or if i can’t convince Jason of that then perhaps Cape Cod (I know, I know – completely different sorts of places!). I can barely get Jason in iChing for dinner, for goodness sakes, what will my dear husband eat? listen, turn on the charm and talk to him…i’m always up for an adventure! warmly, -melanie-
