Pay it Forward
I was just stopping by Margaret's blog: The French Bear, to leave a comment about some fabulous goodies she had made for another blog friend. Her post for today was called "Pay it Forward". I love this idea and am thrilled to participate! Margaret, by the way, is paying it forward after a visit at Karen's blog: Extroverted Introspection. Thanks to both ladies, for such a terrific idea!
Here's how it works: the first three people that leave a comment, along with their addresses etc. will receive a handmade goodie from me. All you have to do is put this link on your blog and do the same for the first three people that leave comments for you. Let's see how far we can pay it forward. Let the fun begin :-)
***"Where is the link?", you are probably asking. Your guess is as good as mine! I am just hopeless when it comes to blogger bells & whistles. I am hoping that Margaret will give me some guidance with this. The "rules" should still work, though. The first three people, to leave a comment, will get a surprise from me. Then it's your turn to pay it forward. Has everyone seen that wonderful movie??? It's a definite must-see! The concept is one I try to implement as often as possible. We don't have any toll roads, in CT, but I (almost) always pay for the car behind me when I happen upon a tollbooth. I also love it when they sell fund raiser lottery tickets outside of the grocery store (local volunteer fire dept, etc.). I purchase several tickets and ask the people at the table to give them out to others who stop by to buy a chance for a prize. What are some ways you give to others, expecting nothing in return?
There is still "room" for more Pay it Forward participants, as two of the comments were left by Margaret....who is already doing her own P.I.F. and one was left by my big sis :-)

Hi Kimberly, you just have to mention Karen at Extroverted Introspection, she the one that started it all. Go to her blog from my link and copy and paste her link to her name like you did with mine!!!

Hi again, I forgot to ask you, I don't see any contact info for you, so I need to contact me with your address. If you go to my profile I have a contact form. If you have any trouble, just leave me a question on the comment form!
ReplyDeleteThanks,

Kimberly, I wrote a comment and it nixed me out into la la land. Don went through surgery fine, I hope now we can get back to normal..whatever that is. Maybe Monica can give us some help on how to capture a blog. I need a blog for dummies, Sharon
ReplyDeletewell good thing i'm number 4 cause it all sounds too complex for me!
ReplyDeleteHey, I'll "Pay it Forward". If I can figure it out. I'm gonna give it a try. Hope it works. Sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you put your beautiful collages on Blogland? Would love to see all of them...I am not crazy about facebook for the way they are displayed...Sharon
