For about a year now I have had a half gallon of milk and half gallon of orange juice delivered by the Winder Dairy Milkman. It's more pricey than the normal milk at the store but I keep getting it because I feel like I'm stimulating the economy.
It's the same story with my Salt Lake Tribune subscription. I can read the paper at work, but I keep receiving it because I think young boys should learn work- ethic and being a paperboy is a great way to do that.
So my question to you the blogging public (the three people that read this) should I keep getting the milk and paper or should I save my money?

The Milkman, the Paperboy, even TV...

The kind of Pot everyone should have...

Tis the season to get sick! Last year I went to the doctor for a sinus infection and she told me to use one of these little Neti Pots. My life has never been the same. I highly recommend them. They are a little weird at first, but you get used to them in no time. I think they are at Target. I got mine at Whole foods. Happy Potting!
Go here for more info.

I have always relied upon the kindness of strangers...
I know. You read the title to my blog and imagined an image of the lovely Scarlet O'Hara. Then you probably started thinking about how attractive both Scarlet and I are, then you lost all interest when you started reading this part...Keep reading!
This blog is not demonstrating how Scarlet and I are both Wiley temptresses, rather it actually deals with the kindness of strangers. I recently listened to the radio program, "This American Life" which is show that chooses a theme and then tells true stories related to that theme. The particular shows theme that I have in mind was the kindness of strangers.
Some people have their houses burn down (Jodi I'm looking at you here) and they receive huge demonstrations of kindness. I've never had such a drastic experience, yet I look back and see many little acts that have really made my days + days + days =life! Just recently I had to purchase ten watermelons at Costco (don't ask) and some guy in the parking lot saw me with them and loaded them in my car and then returned my cart for me! He didn't work for Costco, he was just passing by. It was a dream! I could go on and on with stories like that.
One more thing that got me thinking about random acts of kindness was this mormonmessages video on youtube. I know, it's a little cheesy, but I love it anyway. There are lots of them on youtube my personal faves I may continue to post. Sorry all you non-churchy pants. :)
Enjoy and you may cry a little.
